| You should search around a ton before you consider buying a Z32. Realize that it's going to cost 2-3 times as much as you think it will, minimum, before it's in decent condition. Especially with the budget you're working with. Read this: http://www.twinturbo.net/ttnetfaq/FAQpages/usedpurchasing.html And this:

http://www.zhome.com/Buying/forthgen.html Search this site for anything further that is unclear about what to look out for. My number one suggestion is to run a proper compression test. There are about 100 other issues of importance, so be prepared. The first Z that you linked looks the best, in my opinion. It has the maintenance performed on it that I would be concerned about at that mileage (timing belt, injectors). Realize that this is a high mileage, "high" performance, hugely expensive vehicle. Don't fall into the trap of spending every spare dime you have on keeping a car mechanically sound or modifying it. Save that for later in life when you can really afford it. Seriously, if you still don't believe me ask around in this Z community. There are a lot of people who would have had a lot more money had they stayed away from this car when they really couldn't afford it. I'm speaking from personal experience here, in case you hadn't gotten that drift yet. Good luck with your search. PS-- Run away from the 3rd Z you listed. It says it's a 2+2 but the pictures are definitely of a 2 seater. Smells fishy. Beware scams! If it seems too good to be true, it is.
