This Nissan Z31 300ZX got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1986 Nissan 300ZX is powered by a 3.0-liter V6 paired with a five-speed manual transmission and is finished in Thunder Black over Gray leather. Now showing 22k miles, the car was sold new at Allen Lucas Nissan of Charleston, West Virginia, and reportedly remained with its first owner until 2016 after which it was acquired by the seller in 2023. Features include a limited-slip differential, removable roof panels, a rear spoiler, 15″ 12-hole alloy wheels, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, air conditioning, a cassette stereo, and cruise control. Service since 2021 is said to have included replacing the brake pads, shock absorbers, headliner, timing belt, battery, fluids, and ignition components along with cleaning and lining the fuel tank and overhauling the fuel system. This Z31 300ZX is now offered with the owner’s manual, a car cover, T-top storage bags, and a clean West Virginia title in the seller’s name.
