Message	Hi. Just wanted to ask about the practicality of living day to day with a 300ZX. I live in the UK and drive 80 miles a day to and from work. I'm dying to get a 300ZX Twin Turbo with a manual gear box, but I'm not sure about the running costs. My friends all say that the MPG is terrible and that the tyres don't last more than five minutes, servicing will be expensive and that all those 280 horses will eat the clutch and gearbox in no time at all. Does anyone run a 300ZX for those kinds of miles? If so can you tell me whether it is economicaly viable or not? Thanks. RiX.
