I had a 1979 Datsun 280ZX. It lasted over 220K and I never had any repairs to it. The body finally rusted away.

It would be fun to find out. I saw a few 280 and 300 ZX's lately that I would not mind having as well.

its pretty sweet for a nissan,torque vectering diffs have been out for a while,cars like the
subaru sti,mitu evo, let me tell you that system really works well,can make a heavy sedan feel like a 2200lb miata.
