Get this - I just bought another Zx a couple of weeks ago (yes, I have 6 now) from a 21 year old girl, who saw the car in all of its faded paint glory, decided she wanted to buy it with her OWN money, as her only mode of transportation! It wasn't forced ownership! I didn't know girls that wanted an ugly, faded 280zx exist! BTW, she's only selling it because she blew a piston out of the block. Apparently, excessive oil starvation can cause this...who would've thought? She drove a month without oil - her boyfriend said the little red light was on because she needed to change it soon. She's still in the Z family, though, purchasing an '88 300zx to keep it going.
As for my g/f, she wants to buy my '72 240zt. At first, we both were planning on the 2+2 to go to her after the paint job, but since its name is "Ugly", and because she can now see how it resembles a station wagon more than a coupe, I don't think she wants it anymore. I even offered to turbo it for her. Oh well...
I don't think I can ever sell my '72 to her, though...or anybody else for that matter. She's too scared to drive my v8 280zx - she loves it when I push the car, but she's afraid she would lose it. She is a litte speed demon, though, and I'm proud to say I brought it out in her. Within a month of us dating, she went 130mph in her Probe GT.
