That Cocoa Bronze Vert looks suspiciously like the one i now own, seeing as it was bought from down there, and on sold up here .
Yep bought by a chap on the southside of Brissie, he on sold it too another Southsider, now i own it over on the Northern Peninsula lol . Small world it is.
:rofl: nah i got my new goggles and i can seeeeeeeeeeeeeee a lot clearer nowadays. **** your an ugly looking bunch :rofl: But no seriously though, not many genuine cocoa bronze verts in Aus.
Hey! Enough of that age discrimination sonny! Sure we're old-farts, but you still have to survive long enough to get to that lofty position.:zlove: With age comes wisdom(occasionally).:rofl::br:
I paid around $20,000 for my Z back then. It also wasn't unusual to spend a few thousand dollars on buying aftermarket parts. Now a days a lot of members don't dare spend a couple hundred. I remember handing over a roll of cash for a set of 19" wheels and tyres back in the day also. You can pick up a Z for that kind of money now
Yep. The Z32 has dropped down the pecking order significantly now. Back then it was more like how the 350Z is right now. Today, the Z32 is more like a Z31 was back then...with P Platers and first car buyers now owning them. Sadly the majority I see on the road now look like they've had the crap beaten out of them...the desire to own one has dwindled. I guess that happens after 25 years...
STEVE ...I thought that we had established that your Convertible was not Mr Zee's brown/bronze job. It was on the the Gold Coast around 2009 and for sale as a repossession .... a bit run down and worse for wear, post Mr Zee. A defining element of the car was white leather upholstery.
From what i can gather Barry it was his, bought by a chap at Moorooka, then he sold it to the chap i got it off at Kingston. And the upholstery was changed from white/sandstone seats to the black leather ones. We did a bit of homework trying too find out who did the original import plate, so i could get another plate. And it looks like there was only ever 3 cocoa bronze Zeds in Australia.
I spied one the other day ... not cocoa bronze any more though! Paint code CK2, trim code Z on the Nissan build plate.
About 5 years ago we had at least three in Sydney, all of which used to occasionally attend some of our cruises(although not all at the same time, LOL).:zlove:
