Its alright. I have seen a lot worse than that. If your friend does buy that, ditch the front seats, buy some used OEM off of someone. The side skirt does need to go though. Maybe find something different. One thing is depending on the mileage, he might be able to find a better deal through a private seller.

Eh, I've seen much worse. At least this one doesn't look like a damn catfish. The engine bay is a mess, though. Oh, and the back wheels are on backwards.

All it needs is different side skirts. I'd lose the spoiler too. The rear bumper is debateable. It's not that bad.

Not a fan of the giant wing or the side skirts/rear bumper but overall, its not too bad but it is somewhat ricey.

The skirts and seats are the only bad part. Otherwise, all it needs are some wheels/coilovers and it would look cool. Definitely seen worse.

If I had a friend who still played that juvenile rice BS I would to. If you don't like it don't take a ride. Stick your thumb out, ride the bus, stand up for your,,principles?

That's bad. But I think I can confidently say that we've all seen worse.

I don't think it's really all that bad, it just needs some new front seats and a little TLC. The only reason the fron bumper looks as bad as it does is because it's not a TT model and is missing a huge FMIC. The rear spoiler is actually a JDM spoiler from the later model Z32's.

Exactly. That right there should be enough to kill interest in it.

If it runs/drives well like $7kish. A nice one will fetch $9k-$10k and a super clean, low miles one will go for $12k+. What does you friend want a car for?

Then tell him to buy the ricer.

Jersey people can't drive. If he doesn't hit anyone, someone will surely hit him.

Depends...I still don't believe Nala actually exsists and is just nothing more the a figment of my imagination f***ing with me for the rest of my life. So, fiction.

As for that z32...it's not bad, but that spoiler thing has got to go.

You do realize the GVWR is NOT the curb weight, right?

This is true... But it is a 2+2 isn't it?

I think the picture of the back seats makes much better proof then the weight of the vehicle loaded with passengers and luggage.

I should pacepalm myself I never realized that. It makes sense though.

Yeah. Slowest/fattest Z32 ever made after the 2+2 automatic. I don't like the body lines on them either, they remind me of limos (cause they look stretched out).

Being 6'1 and having sat in the back of a 2+2 with 4 other people, I can definitely say, that they aren't as roomy as you would make them out to be, just being back there by myself was a cramped ordeal, though I'm sure it was funny just watching me get in and out of the car.

Who said anything about them being roomy? They're tiny back there. I mean that the lines make the car look "stretched out" when compared to a 2 seater.

Drive what you want....it kinda reminds me of Jerry's car.

but it's NA...I wouldn't pay that much for the pain in the a** working on it....or price of aftermarket parts.

buy a Fox body Mustang instead and have A LOT more fun.

especially if it's a MAF car.
