cygnusx1 Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 I figured that we had alot of new members coming in so here is a pretty well written article to start them off with some basic Z knowledge. http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/Features/articleId=100641 Imagine if they ever test drove a HybridZ in a car mag...what would they compare it to?

Pop N Wood Posted July 21, 2006 Share Posted July 21, 2006 It's tough to say anything good about the 1979 280ZX or 280ZX 2+2. ....Motor Trend tested a '79 2+2 and found, no surprise, that 135 horsepower and 2,915 pounds didn't make for scintillating acceleration. With the five-speed, the 2+2 took an awful 11.3 seconds to reach 60 mph and covered the quarter-mile in 18.0 seconds at 77.0 mph. The handling wasn't particularly sharp, either, but the wallowing ZX was a hit anyhow. Damn. That is slower than a Prius... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
