Car: 1991 Stillen GTZ #6 (300ZX TT)

Post

I own the Diamond Black Pearl, 1991 Stillen GTZ that was the last in a series of six 300ZX TT's built by Steve Millen. I think there are 4 still in existence. It's pretty much the same as the orange car that was on the cover of Road & Track back in 1992. The car is in great shape, all the original Stillen parts from the original build, gauges in glove box, vented fenders front and rear, Brembo brakes and Nissan Race Brakes etc. It has about 96,000 miles on it and runs great. I've always used Amsoil synthetic racing oil. It has typical wear and tear of a car this old, door dings, scratches, but the interior is in really great shape. I'm thinking of selling the car and was wondering about any interest in it. Also, wondering what this kind of car would sell for. If anyone has an idea or can point me in the direction of an appraiser I'd appreciate it. The car is in California.Thanks!mike

Go to this website. This is what it is going for if it is still in factory condition. It could possibly be worth more or less depending on it's condition.

http://www.fantasycars.com/derek/cars/300gtz.html

Go to that link and you will see the book value. It says it's $61,609 and it's current and up to date.

Yes very rare. I did not realize the GTZ was as expensive as they are. I was under the assumption there were 10 made not 6 but still amazing to find. Great car man. Keep it and don't let anything happen to that beauty. Also post some pics for all of us.

That was price when it was brand new. Not a current value by any means.

and his is a 1991.. the one you searched was for a 1995?

we need to see more pics for authenticity. usually the stillen gtz has a 3 piece wing, along with a plaque and among others... perhaps there were a couple variety. i've seen these rare Z's go for over $30k

It's authentic. I have all of the receipts from Stillen. I bought it off a woman that had it built and have the original sales receipt...she was living in Hawaii....called up the Nissan dealership in San Juan Capistrano and bought it for about $45K with her credit card. The car was sent to Stillen and he built the car to her specs, put it in a crate and it was air freighted to Hawaii. She put 7,000 miles on it driving in Hawaii and then she came back to the mainland with it. I bought it in '94 when it had just over 7,000 miles on the odo. It was covered in stickers when I got it, including the GTZ script, which I removed. I went to a Z meet at Stillen a few years ago and when I parked they made an announcement about the car over the PA system. I've met Steve Millen at his shop and he knew the car.

Your absolutely right. I just took a quick scan over the site and did not look thoroughly through it. Thanks for the correction. I would guess that an early '90's GTZ would go for around $20K-$30K. Howver if what this guy is saying is true and ot has less then 8K miles on it I can't see the car being worth any less then $45K. However a car is worthless if you can't find a buyer. LOL. If you can get someone to buy it for $60K then thats what it could be worth to someone. If they are only willing to pay $25K then thats all the car is worth. It kind of sucks but thats the way the market is right now.

So the bottom line is to find the right person for this car who is willing to pay top dollar for a rare car like this.

To MIKEBURTON: If you are looking to sell the car my cousin Chris Unger in Ocean City MD deals with selling high end sports cars (Like Lamborghini, Porsche, Ferrari ect.) He could help you sell it if you want. Nice car too! Very clean.

I think he meant it had less than 8k miles on it when he bought it.

Anyway, this thread needs more pictures!

Here's the simple, indisputable answer: If you're serious about selling, list it on BaT.

The most knowledgeable buyers with the ability to buy will see it there.

As far as "what's it worth," the final bid is exactly, precisely, what the car is worth. Make sure your pics are perfect and your description is accurate and concise.
