Classic Car Overview
An exceptional opportunity to own a true icon of Japanese performance, this 1996 Nissan 300ZX coupe is a meticulously maintained, collector-quality example that perfectly blends originality with tasteful upgrades. Finished in stunning Arctic White Pearl, this Z32 is garaged in California under a car cover, preserving its condition to an impressive standard. The original paint still shines brilliantly, while the interior and exterior remain in outstanding, time-capsule-like condition. 93,000 original miles and ZERO LEAKS! A clean California title in hand, and complete maintenance records, this is a well-documented, enthusiast-owned vehicle that stands out among the rest.
Powered by the legendary 3.0L V6 and paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, this 300ZX has been enhanced with quality performance upgrades including a GReddy exhaust system, Jim Wolf Technology air filter, upgraded intake piping, a Koyorad aluminum radiator, and Nissan electric cooling fans, along with a PTU relocation kit for improved reliability. Major maintenance has already been completed, including a timing belt service in 2022 and valve cover gasket replacement in 2020. The drivetrain has been further refined with a Jim Wolf Technology clutch kit and lightweight aluminum flywheel, a one-piece aluminum driveshaft, stainless steel clutch line, upgraded clutch hydraulics, and a factory limited-slip differential, delivering a responsive and engaging driving experience.
Handling and braking have been upgraded with a full Powertrix suspension system featuring adjustable coilovers, complemented by 18-inch Volk Racing wheels wrapped in Firestone Firehawk tires. Stopping power is enhanced with PowerStop cross-drilled and slotted rotors and stainless braided brake lines. The exterior is tastefully styled with a Stillen Type III front spoiler and matching carbon-fiber rear wing, while removable T-top panels offer the classic open-air driving experience that defines the Z32. Inside, the OEM charcoal leather interior remains in excellent original condition and is accented with custom carbon-fiber trim, an Alpine head unit, front and rear-view cameras, and a Bose premium sound system, along with modern conveniences such as automatic climate control, cruise control, and a power-adjustable driver seat. A Z1 Motorsports short-throw shifter adds to the driver-focused feel.
This 300ZX has recently passed California emissions as of February 2026 and includes spare parts, service records, awards, and original manufacturer literature. It is a strong-running, clean, and highly presentable example of a modern classic that offers the best of both worlds perfect as a head-turning show car or a reliable, enjoyable daily driver. Whether you're a collector looking for something truly special or an enthusiast seeking an engaging analog sports car, this Z32 is turn-key and ready to impress. A rare find that is, without question, like nothing else.
