Message I sold my 1996 Nissan 300ZX TT with 17k miles earlier this year. It was a cherished garage queen that was never driven in bad weather. It looked like it was just driven out of the showroom.

Odometer fraud is always a concern, but common sense dictates that a Z with <15k miles should look virtually new. The undercarraige, interior and engine compartment should be commensurate with a car that is hardly driven.

My favorite way of "carbon dating" a Z is to look at the rear quarter window rubber trim. The finish should be smooth and without greyish oxidation. The moulding is virtually impossible to refinish to factory stadards, and the part is too expensive to replace to hide previous wear.

Apparently there is also a 1995 cherry red pearl TT is Cleveland with 10k miles for $29,000. Hmmmmmm. I'm tempted.
