That looks really clean. I like the matte black look on the 2-tone. Nice ZX.

Nice, clean car. The gold rims set it off nicely.

That is a rare ZX indeed. Most were sold with every option box checked (because that's how Nissan shipped 'em).

It looks great in all of its 80's glory.

having no cruise or fuel injection really makes the engine compartment clean! You are running an air filter I hope?

Nice ride!

Guys, the OP, Ed, hasn't been here in almost a year. The only reason this thread came back is beacuse a spambot, elijah (post #4) brought it back.

Dangit! Sucker punched again by the spambot.

Of course, now that elijah and his post are gone there's a big hole in this thread's continuity.......

now it looks like gary revived it from the dead. :-)

Love these wheels. Let me know when you sell em!
