Very true of all cars. If your not using a car you shouldn't just start it, you need to drive it for a few minutes to circulate ALL of the fluids and lube all the seals.
Oh GAWD, it's back- new and improved with everything you could ever want...FEAST YOUR EYES ON THIS "SHOW CAR"!!!!!

WHY OH WHY do people put Lambo doors on their cars?! It seems like such a royal PITA. Btw it doesn't say if its NA or TT but I bet its an NA and he thought the 1 foot wing would make it faster

NOOO! this was the worst piece of junk Z i came in contact with! This was the first Z i went to look at. It did not run, the rear hatched leaked, the breaks where rusted, it had a terrible auto to manual conversion, the right fender was destroyed far worse than in the picture, it has been sitting for a year. I was so pissed when i went to go look at this!

^^^Makes me wonder just what put in motion the sale- a larger, more expensive problem that surfaced while doing injectors/"HSK" turbos at the shop the car is at, or an car owner paying the shop bill problem due to lack of work, divorce, etc.
An important issue to ferret out before even considering that one I'd think...

Oh wow that does look like a good deal, unless there's more wrong than they are letting on.
Sweet color and the ad said good paint, definitely worth a look at $3.1K

We have a thread for the gems of craigslist, but how bought a thread for those Z cars that are just rough?

Like this one here, What are they doing to the back of it?

The other thread started as a Zs only thread and grew to be a monster, I think we should just keep the other thread.

Yeah, originally the first post was about weird crap on CL. I found a guy wanting to trade a dog for a 4 wheeler, then I think Anton came up with some off the wall post involving chickens?

It just kinda grew into a post good Z's thread. I honestly didn't think this thread would live this long, lmao.

But yeah, is that expansion foam on the back of the car?

OMG IS THAT VIG'S CAR????? :rotfl:

It has to be, don't know who else would try that hard to change a beautiful car. Did he ever actually do a front end? Seems like he spent a lot of time rendering 3d

I miss Vig. Next to this thread, the Craigslist postings, posts by Vig were the next most entertaining.

As for the ad, the last three words of the ad are the most telling: "PS: do not have paper work for car but will give number of previous owner , he will get it, not my concern."

Thats a scam. That exact same car is listed up in the San Fran Bay area Craigslist in CA for $8999 from a dealership/shop and has been listed there for quite some time. Was listed last May when I was looking for a Z, seen it relisted quite a bit.

^Thats the actual add of that car.
