The Datsun 280zx was one of my dream cars since childhood, and I was finally able to acquire this one two summers ago. It is fast, reliable, fun, a thrill to drive, and attracts looks and attention everywhere. She runs and drives fine, handles AMAZINGLY, and could be a great daily-driver when the weather gets warmer. I would love to keep her, but I rarely drive her nowadays (my WRX has been getting most of the attention), and I need to clear up some space in my home.

This car was driven mostly in the summertime and on warm days (feels great with the tops off) to and from my workplace (about a 50-mile commute). I only fill up with premium gas, and oil changes have been done every 2500 miles.

Though I don’t want to see her go, I think she’ll serve someone else better who can drive her and give her the attention she deserves. Asking price is $3500 obo, and the car is located in Clifton, NJ. Local deals only; sorry, no shipping and no trades. I'd be willing to work out a package deal for anyone who'd also be interesting in purchasing my 2000 Yamaha YZF-R6 http://zilvia.net/f/cars-sale/291522-2000-yamaha-yzf-r6-2600-a.html
