1973 240z. sale price was $1000, cost $300 to tow it from savannah to atlanta. seller didn't tell me the harness was melted, or about the 3 dents in the roof...but for the price i didn't expect it to be perfect. nor did i expect it to come with a set of french 3-piece racing wheels

VIN 3435 1970 240Z bought new in Montgomery, AL Aug 1970 for $3000. Traded with second child in the oven in 1973. Another Air force officer bought it and he contacted me in 1989 to ask if I wanted to buy the car. I bought it for the second time for $3000, the same as when new.

Rusty 1971 240z: $500 as a roller. Yeah, it needs work... lots of it.

I paid about $2000 for mine. But it will be about $6000 on top of that before its really on the road.

I bought my used 71 240Z in 73 for $4,300 and still own it today.[attachment=81385:IMG_0192.

What a cool thread with a life of its own......started in 2002, went dormant in 2003, revived after seven years in 2010, went dormant again in 2010, and just revived in 2017.

I look forward to seeing it brought back in 2024.

Hopefully the prices will continue to go up!

I'm not a huge specialty plates fan, but those are great!

October !974, 260Z purchased from Bob Sharp's dealership for $5280 I believe which included taxes and fees.

Stolen and stripped 14 months later. I personally saw two street sweepers trying to yank the wheels off as I got there with the police after someone called them. The engine and tranny, interior, doors, hood and most of the glass was gone or damaged beyond repair.

I took my VW Porsche powered MicroBus out of storage and used it for a year before it was crushed by my (ex)wife after she thought I was cheating on her. I wasn't and she bought me a restored Volvo 544 with a B16 engine as a made-up gift.

At times I waffle as to which one I would want back if I could only choose one of them. I think a good 544 might be the cheapest one to buy today.

Now that would have been a conversation I would have like to have heard! Not like she threw your favorite Hawaiian shirt out, but crushed your car? I think I would have cheated then!

I notice you said "ex". Did that ever come up in the divorce proceedings?

You guys want me to put this poll back up on the main page?  Or, would it be better to start a new poll with todays prices?

Bought my first 240Z new July of 71 for $4200 after taxes, license, and wheels. Bought my second 71Z in June 2006 for$3000. Bought my original 71Z again in Aug 2008 For $3500
