Nissan 300 ZX 3.0 V6 Targa 3d (1992/J) Owner Review
-
Economy
Value
Supercar looks and performance at a very reasonable price.
Costs
Expensive compared to normal cars, but cheap as chips compared to supercars with similar looks/performance.

On the road
Driving
Fantastic, but learn how to control the rear end before you really explore its limits.
Performance
Feels like a lot more than 280bhp. Who said it only does 155? Is theirs limited? Mine's not!

Living with it
Reliability
Although I've had a few niggles (it is 10 years old) it's got Ferrari performance with Nissan levels of build quality and their reputation for reliability.
Image
My wife doesn't care if her bum looks big in it! By the way, it doesn't! Ours is understated graphite grey, but it's turning nearly as many heads as my Cobra replica did. Respect!
Comfort
Most of the other people who've written reports on it seem big. I'm no exception - 6' 4" and a big Yorkshire lad, I'm as comfy as could be. I could do with higher head restraints, but it's a good effort.

Security and Service
Security
Mine's been fitted with an alarm, immobiliser and a tracker, albeit aftermarket.
Service
Join the Z club and talk to Luke at the Z Centre. He knows more about the ZX TT than the dealers and the manufacturers combined and he's very friendly and helpful.
