1990 Nissan 300ZX Test Drive

There was no mirror on the driver’s side o f the 300ZX.  If you appreciate subtlety, the implication was clear; this was a drivers car. If you were more concerned about the view in the vanity mirror than the view through the windshield, you were probably happier driving something else.

For 1990, Nissan polished its most illustrious nameplate to its former high sheen.  Pure and simple, this was the most competent sporting piece ever to roll through the company’s doors. Nissan set its sights on several world class competitors, particularly Porsche’s 944 and Chevrolet’s Corvette – and sent the new 300 zinging straight for the bull’s eye.

  1. Kevin Woodard says:

    A driver’s airbag was optional in 1990 and 1991, but that would be standard in 1992. In 1994, a passenger airbag would be added. However, the door-mounted safety belts remained until the ZX car’s departure in 1996. It would be six years before its comeback, known as the 350Z for 2003, and now the 370Z since 2010.
