I drove 2 hours yesterday to look at the only 5 speed Z I found in the area the entire summer. It was a 94, same color as mine, and I already had a down payment on it for them to hold it until I could make it over to check it out.
It was completely stock with 98000 on the clock. Interior was near perfect. It drove really nice, chirped into 2nd and almost in 3rd no problem. But there was just way too much rust, dings and scratches on it. It was really rusty above the door molding, which is common, but it was worse than most I have seen. Plus it was rusting at the bottom of the door, and on the hinges and a few other small spots on the body.
The dealership wouldn't go any lower than the $2800 I had got them down to over the phone (originally asking $3500, but they would have had to go quite a bit lower than $2800), so I told them there was just too much rust for what they were asking. They already had it sold to a wholesaler, so they were doing me a favor in holding it for me. I REALLY wanted that car, it was so hard to walk away from it. So now my search begins all over again... If anybody finds a 91-94 5 speed Z for sale in or around Iowa, Please let me know!
