Find a 300ZX or MKIII Poopra in REALLY good condition. Or if you get REALLY lucky, you might be able to find an MKIV.


Personally for me, if I wanted a car to JUST mod for the weekend, then it would be an old Vette. (69 Stingray) They go for about $10k in decent condition.

...if that's what you're looking for, why sell the tib in the first place?

I personally have always loved GSX's.

^Agree about the tib.

Do you have a preferred make?? do you want a unique car or one thats common?

That would help. fing02.gif

Find a 300ZX


My ZX is still up for sale! $1500 for the car would leave you $8500 for mods fing02.gif and it's a lot less than your Tib for insurance.
