There's good value to be had with these coupes and wagons.
Nissan 300ZX/Stagea
Lots of value here for people who want an impressive and, in some variations, seriously quick coupe.
Z31 models sold during the 1980s came as turbo or non-turbos with or without removable roof panels.
However only the very best cars will sell at close to $10,000.
The shape changed in 1989 and $8000-10,000 currently buys a good non-turbo Z32.
These sold in Australia from 1989 until 1996.
Twin-turbo Z32s will all be used imports and deliver at least 206kW. Most now cost less than $12,000.
If you need space with performance take a look at the Stagea wagon.
These normally use single turbo GTS-T engines and excellent cars with manual transmission cost $10-12,000.
You can spend double that money on a scarce twin-turbo RS260.
