Just for fun you should go by the Nissan dealership and throw a brick at the 300ZX then tear away in your Corrado. That'll teach'em.

i wouldnt get it...higher mileage TT's suck...so many things break compared to the non-turbo's in the upper miles...i'd check out some 300zx forums and see what maitenence should be done before you buy it

what do you all think of this deal?
1998 Ford Contour
"5 speed, 4 dr., 2.5L, 6 cyl., gas, front wheel,leather bucket seats, air conditioning, am-fm stereo, compact disc, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, heated mirrors, cruise control, tilt wheel, drivers air bag, passenger air,key less entry,alarm, bag, anti-lock brakes"
If you're thinking about trading your own Contour in for that Contour, I can only say: GO FOR IT! 
You have no idea how much faster a 6 cylinder Duratec is when compared to a 4 cylinder Zetec. And a manual to boot.. 
Actually, I would hold out for an SVT eBay has a fair number of them. But if you get a really good trade-in deal on this Contour, go for it. You won't regret it.
::throws a brick at the 300ZX:: Smashy smashy.

i was just driving behind a 300ZTT yesterday. was a little banged up but i mentioned to Courtney that it was a quick car. and then sure enough he laid on the gas at the stoplight. i caught up to him in the corners, tho...  i actually like both cars a lot. the VW and the Nissan. the twin turbo scares me with maintenance, but i have seen some very nice ones that look amazing. both are pretty uncommon around here. that IS a tough decision!
