I like the look of the 86 the best too. I would want to keep the hood from an 85 though so I could have the turbo scoop. The 280zx turbo got me into Z's. My friend's brother had one that he converted to twin turbo and it hauled ass! Then my friend got an 85 turbo and after riding in that I knew that was the car I wanted. So a few months later I found an excellent condition 85 turbo for $3000 with only 70k original miles on it!

This was in 2000 when I bought it. The best thing I like about my turbo Z31 is the sound of my exhaust! It sounds like a V8, mix between a z28 and mustang. Most people don't know and are really really surprised when they hear it. Far from riced
