| In my humble opinion, the Datsun 280ZX is an exellent example of luxury and sporty hybrid. This particular model comes with power mirrors, power windows, power steering, Air Conditioning, 3 speed Automatic with higway overdrive, and folding rear seats that leave enough room in the back for a single matress... The one thing I can't beilieve is that it doesn't have tilt steering.. All the features it has, (Including a diagnostic computer that tells you how your washer, brake and coolant levels are.) it does not have a simple thing like tilt steering! All things aside, it handles awesome with the independant wishbone suspention and dual stablizer bars front and rear. The rigidity of the suspention package is exellent. It has the handling charachteristics of most Camaro's, but has more tendancy to kick out in powerslides. Countersteering is a must, otherwise you'll be doing donuts before you know what happened. Long story short, I love this car, it kicks ass. If you get the chance to buy one, do it, you wont be dissapointed. |

| Well, where to start.. I love this car! I cant say enough good things about it. From the hideaway headlights to the interior comfort, this is an exellent machine. I managed to buy this little number for an outrageous $1500 in canadian funds. The lady I had bought it from had no idea what she was selling. This little machine had been lady driven and garage kept since 1985, I jumped on the opportunity to purchase it. I have done a few things to it, like a new intake system, removing the 3 catalytic converters replacing the entire exhaust with 2 and 3/4 inch pipe, getting a high flow muffler, and upgrading from stock rims to Enkei race rims. Later, maybe some Candy Apple Red paint and an interior detail. This car handles like a dream, kicks out so easy in the corners if you dont watch how much gas you're giving her. The power to the back wheels is very sharp and precise and there is no middle ground when it comes to this engine. There are 2 settings to the throttle, Accellerate and Decelerate. Making it very difficult to drive this car well in a high speed situation. Nonetheless, she tops 200 Kph with no fuss.. So I'm happy :) |

| Nothing fancy, just the regular 80's car Ornage on Black theme. Notice the Redline starts at 7000 RPM? This engine is balanced and able to hande 9000 RPM with relative ease. Mazda Motor Co. Decided to put the redline at 7000 as a way to govern their engines. A rotary will spin faster and faster if it is getting fuel, they work much differently the a standard internal conmbustion engine. They pull harder and harder as the RPM's climb and they sound like no other engine on the planet. At 7000 RPM this engine sounds like a regualr 4 cylynder running at 3500 RPM. The balance of these engines is outstanding. No vibrations, no valve noise. Only 3 moving parts in total, hardly anything to go wrong, and hence, Reliable. |
| Just a Pioneer 50Wx4 Mosfet Cd player with a 1-Bit DAC, a few neat features like a built in front and rear EQ, Removable face, among a few other things not worth mentioning. It Works... So Who Cares? |
