had a 1990 ZX. Loved it! Sold it and got a Maxima. I miss the Z. That bodystyle was the best ever. The new 370 Z is nice but don't have that bold kick-ass look that the 90-96 ZX had. Today in April 2016 the 1990 turbo Z looks better than the 2016 Z.

I totally understand Jay Leno's insatiable desire to collect cars. There have been so many great cars produced how could you decide on just a few if you have the money to have to grab just about any one you want. Beautiful car and it really makes me wish I had one.
Z32 was a head of its time.. she is beautiful by its nature,by its original shape..the cockpit around the steering is unique. .no need for any make-up..the real Fair Lady no doubt..the only find is the engine bay or the ingine by it self,If I again get one I must change it to rb25 or s14 ..
They're heavy and their engines are weak when compared with other jdm goodness. Plus we have cheap skylines, rx7's etc etc so no one really bothers with these whales...
+Samuel Brown - You are correct, the 300ZX was heavy and weighed in at 3,500 pounds, but despite this, in the Twin Turbo version its stock 300 hp engine could launch it from 0 - 60 mph in just five seconds. No slouch for a car back in the early 1990's (and still pretty good, even today).
you have never drove a Z im guessing? the Skyline is a bigger car. i have a N/A Z32 . feels solid planted and balanced a great track car . i seriously doubt that is the general concensious in NZ , i been to Australia and 300zx are valued for their looks and tuning ability
I find your constantly calling it a "Zed X" annoying. There are just 2 letters after the 300: ZX. It's not Zed, or Zeta or Zulu. It's just a ZX. Period.
+242HP lol. "Z" is pronounced differently depending on where you are in the world. In Canada, the UK, and other countries in Europe it's pronounced "Zed" and in the USA it's pronounced "Zee". Hope this clears things up :p

This story motivates me to put in more work on my Z32.
Great video!
What an interesting story. Just goes to show that cars are a lot more than a means of commuting from A to B. Thanks for sharing.
The space in that engine bay makes my 3000gt Vr4 looks like a castle.
I love the quality and effort you guys put into each and every video!
Great story and video buddy. Keep up all the good work!
I love the story to this. Gratz Mike on a wonderful car

What happened at the end there? Why'd you have to run?
I never realized it till this video, but the front of the car looks like the car is smiling haha

CAN YOU IMAGINE IF SASQUATCH JUST JUMP BEHIND HIM WHILE HES TALKING RIGHT THERE, REACTION WOULD BE
Very nice and clean! It needs new shoes though. Those wheels are very heavy and outdated.
Interesting how different cars are perceived and valued in different countries. Here in NZ these Z cars are very cheap and looked at as utter shit.
They're very cheap here as well, but not looked at as utter shit. They're great cars if they're kept in good condition.
+Samuel Brown Z is utter shit? what on earth is the perception over there in NZ ? shit even in Japan they are valued

Chrome wheels look terrible. Even in North America. Yes, that's right. Stop it.
agreed
Agreed, chrome does not look right on the Z. Not sure why Nissan thought that was a good idea.

"zed x" lol

That's how "Z" is pronounced in Canada as well as pretty much all of Europe.

What the hell is a zedx? Try calling it a ZX! Wtf
