The only maroon AE Z was the 500-car run of 10th anniversary 280ZXs in maroon and black, while most of the 10th AE 280ZXs (1000 of them) were black and gold (black gold). Z31 300ZX AEs were all silver and black, unless if was painted. They were also the 50th AE celebrating 50 years of Nissan.



No, you're right. Z32 owners are just dumb ignorant cocky bastards who think the Z32 is the only 300ZX that exists. 1984-1989 was the first NISSAN 300ZX, available with a turbo. Datsun was done in 1984, all 85+ cars are 100% Nissan, while 84 cars had both names on them. The Z31 sold 290,000 cars in the US alone, the Z32 about 90,000. In japan the Z31 introduced the VG30DE with VVT, coil on plug, etc in 1986 in the 300ZR. The Z31 also had japan's first mass produced production V6, the VG30E (in 1983).
Well since you turned this into an argument, why don't you put a poll on 300ZXclub or TT.net and ask which 300ZX still turns heads today? How about more reliable? How about faster? How about handling? I could really go on all day, but an e-fight really isn't my thing. Big deal, the Z31 sold more. It was also much cheaper. Aren't you forgetting the base model TT in 90 was $28,000? No no, you didn't even mention that..
