    I can only find 4 for sale, on goo or car sensor. 3 NA's 1 TT

    This has to be high up on many ppls ideal zed list:

    Link

    2000 spec
    2 Seater slick top
    5 speed Manual
    TT
    44,000 km

    About 35K give or take, yes yes I know but you can get them in the country legally, except as a personal import...luckily I have someone willing to "sponsor" a personal import for me, but if I had 3 mil JPY lying around would go an GTR R35 which is about a million more over there for a earlier one.

    There were less produced so it stands to reason there will be fewer available for sale.

    According to Nissan FAST there were seven TT 2.0 seaters built in the year 2000 all of them slicktops.

    CZ32-560033 built 01/2000
    CZ32-560034 built 01/2000
    CZ32-560035 built 02/2000
    CZ32-560036 built 02/2000
    CZ32-560037 built 03/2000
    CZ32-560038 built 03/2000
    CZ32-560039 built 08/2000

    The Z in your link based on the colour EV1 Lightning Yellow should be CZ32-560034

    Wow, got to hand it to Nissan, they really did continue offering Z32's for sale until simply no one else wanted to buy one brand new... Fancy keeping a factory production line set up for basically a whole year to support a particular car model & only sell 7 units!

    That list is only the 2.0 seater TT's.
    It doesn't include any NA's or 2+2's.

    Sure, but wasn't the total for all 2k models combined less than 200 units? That's pretty woeful compared to the 40,000+ units racing out of the factory for 1990...

    Quick! Someone buy it and put in a VS Bodykit, Neons, SCA racing seats, some BOV's, a FMIC, and BOOST THE HELL out of it :D

    It'll ADD value.....trust me ;) :p

    Pretty safe bet that with only 7 produced, yours will be the only 2k slicktop in Australia Jono! An insurance company would have a tough time replacing it!

    If only they were legal to import without living there for a year.

    Pity the laws haven't relaxed as yet on grey imports as a result of our local manufacturing shutting down.

    heres a couple gems for the convertible boys..

    Link

    1997 Convertible
    78,000 Km
    The monitors in the sun visors, never seen that before kind of cool but not practicle IMHO.

    This is older but the interior looks amazing...

    Link

    1995
    19,000 km

    one for the ricers

    Link

    I dont think I need to add a comment on this one...

    The reason I was looking at 350 zeds was to see if the most expensive Z32 was more expensive than the most expensive Z33, the above is the most expensive Z33 on car sensor, the next most expensive (un riced Z33) is this: Link

    Its a 2008 nismo tuned type 380RS, its got 4,000 km on it, but whats more interesting about this is the photos, they are bad quality and this car is surrounded by two R35 GTR, what looks an R34 GTR and other nissan sports cars, the bad photos and all the other cars around it make me thinks its some (rich) dudes personal garage/stash (harem) of cars.

    I'm thinking if I get a zed again, i'm not paying 35+ K AUD and waiting a year on a personal import 2000 spec, would more likely go 10K -15K AUD for a 1998 in mint condition and low km's and import it under SEVS/RAWS, this one is of interest: Link the photos arent much good, its a series 4, 2008 TT manual, Targa 4 seater, metallic purple, 1,080,000 JPY, the only deal breaker is no Kms advertised, bit suspect, if low kms would expect a higher price.

    It appears the 1998 there were two versions made, the later 2008's, that are very similar to a 1999/2000 example (pity its auto otherwise very good) and the earlier ones Example worth noting all the earlier 2008's are 500,000 JPY the later ones 1,500,000 JPY, thus can only conclude any thing series 4 is crazy expensive anything before that is poop, so with my crystal ball in hand if one was interested in having a zed in 30+ years time the series 4 will be a collectors item and anything older if still in existance wont be...

    This is an earlier 2008 price is 2,160,000 JPY as its only got 7,000 km on it :eek::eek: Link

    SEVS doesn't allow anything beyond 12/97 to be imported for compliance / registration.

    And the best of the last few 12/97's produced.... is already here ;)
