I purchased this little gem in July 2003. <br>This rare 1984 Nissan 300ZX 50th Anniversary car is a real head-turner! It is 1 of 5000 produced and it is number 189 of 300 that were shipped to Canada to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of Nissan Motor Company Limited. Looks great and the turbo runs very strong. Has been kept in the garage and covered and never smoked in. <p>All maintenance records service manual owners manual collectors pictures and commemorative certificate included with vehicle. The odometer display reads in kilometers at 106778 km with actual mileage at 66737 miles. Speedometer has the option to read in miles per hour or KM per hour. Has been pampered the last 2 years and has only been driven an average of 3178 miles per year. This is incredible for a car that is 21 years old! Digital display works perfect very high-tech for a car of this time. Leather interior in excellent condition. Female voice ""Talks"" to you reminding you of all important information. <p>There are a few minor imperfections in this car as expected with a car this age. 1) missing radio volume knob 2) bit of rust in back hatch & drivers side door jam (See all pics) 3) a few door dings 4) few minor scratches . We will be glad to help out with the shipping arrangements in any way we can. Central location in Kansas. No problem to view first. Seroius bidders only! You will not be disappointed!!!

Is one of these cars yours?

Owner details are kept up to date from your XenonZcar forum garage. Log in, claim your car once (only one member can hold each car, so nobody else can change your car’s record), and then you can update the owner name, location, condition, mileage, website link, comments and photos any time. Your name and location show publicly only if you choose; otherwise only XenonZcar admins see them. Your car also shows on your forum profile.

  1. Log in to the XenonZcar forum (or join; it’s free).
  2. Open My garage, pick Z31 300ZX under “Which Z?” and enter the 17-character VIN.
  3. If the car is already in the registry and no other member has it, it goes straight into your garage with the details you entered. Otherwise an admin confirms the claim, usually within a day or two. Sold the car? Transfer it to the buyer from your garage and it stays in the car’s history.
