Hi guys im new here and going to purchase my z32 tomorrow morning

However the seller tells me there are a few issue with thw car.

He says there is a blueish* greyish smoke and the car is misfiring so cant be driven to its potential.

It is an auto.

Wondering if anyone can help with common issues or if i should stay away from it?

Thanks Nai

Blue smoke is burning oil. The misfire could be anything from injector being dead/stuck/unplugged or a coilpack or timing. As far as if you should get it. My 1st Z was a pos but i learned a lot with it. It is up to you. If you have to time and the money and the went go for it and if his price point is right.
