Yes I agree completely, these comments are typical of what many of my friends
who own 300ZX's have to say.  They all agree that the car was bought for its
looks, goodies, and sex appeal.  The car has long ago (ala 240 days) lost its
"sports car" image.
Mind you, there is absolutely nothing wrong with that, as long as it is under-
stood.  Nissan has decided to go for that market and I'm sure they were well
aware of what they were doing.
There is a need for both markets.
