NISSAN300 ZX 1984 - 1989

　　The 1984 Nissan 300 ZX was one of the transition models from Datsun to Nissan. It was launched in 1983 and it was available with a choice of turbocharged 4-cylinder and with a V6 unit.

　　After the Datsun 280Z, also known as the Nissan Fairlady, was stopped, the new generation stepped in with all the good things that the Datsun-Nissan had in their shops. It was a revolutionary car for its time and featured all the discoveries of the Disco era and everything that was available to make the driving experience as a sci-fi one.

　　Since it was in the '80s, the pop-up headlights were somehow mandatory on a GT-car, such as the 300ZX. But unlike other vehicles that completely masked the headlights, in the 300ZX there was a small part of the lamps that were exposed even when they were rolled down. In the rear, the car featured big taillights and a red strip connecting them. On the models after 1986, that red strip disappeared, along with the Datsun badge on the car.

　　The interior was interesting. For starters, there was a choice of two instrument clusters. One was with regular, analog, dials, and the other was with a complete digital appearance. Bellow the dashboard, there was a choice for cassette-players with equalizer. It was the mid-'80s, after all. The high bolstered seats featured a special design for the headrest, which could have been adjusted back and forth.

　　Under the hood, the 300ZX featured turbocharged or naturally aspirated engines, mated to a 5-speed manual or a 4-speed automatic.
