Message	That's cool. What condition was your 92 in compared to the 96's you saw? How many 96's were you able to even consider, taking into account their rarity? I'm sure your 92 was a very clean car, and that's why you bought it. I'm sure you didn't pay MORE for a ratty 92 just because it wasn't a 96. ECU tuning option? It's out there now. "Most consider the '95 the most desirable...." Who's "most?" 95's are nice if you want a heavy pig compared to previous years. And if you like a tacked-on-looking spoiler. I guess my point is: depending on what you're after and what's important to you, the various model years all have their pluses and minuses. The Z32 is just a beautiful car. If you're buying one (goes for any Z, really), you should ALWAYS buy the cleanest Z you can afford.
