Drivelines were carried over and the car's outside dimensions were virtually identical, with the added plus of wind-tunnel-improved aerodynamics and all-new independent suspension borrowed from the upscale 810. While criticized by some as too soft, the 280zx was exactly the right approach in an era when car manufacturers worldwide were adjusting to new government legislation and changing market demands, and through the magic of time examples such as this well-maintained, low-mileage final-year coupe are in high demand among aficionados.

This late-production 280zx has been shown regularly over the years, accumulating no fewer than 25 first-place trophies -. AM/FM✔ Cloth Interior✔ Cruise Control✔ Air Conditioning
