1983 Datsun 200SX Coupe Z-22-E
Summary:
A low dollar hot-rod in disguise, the perfect sleeper
Faults:
So far I have had zero problem with this car with the exception of needing to replace the battery after purchasing the car, and having to have a rear window installed in it due to the original one being broke out by a tornado. Other than that, it has been a very reliable car.
General Comments:
I love this car so far, it is fun to drive and gets great gas mileage compared to my last car, a 1978 Dodge full size van. I am averaging just over 24 in town and 30 on the highway. The car is very quick, bordering on fast as..., well you get the picture, corners great for a stock suspension, and over all is a dream to drive.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I owned one of these for about 4 years.
Just wait until you have to get the brakes (especially rear) services. Rear calipers are over $300 each.
However, it was very quick for a 2L and it handled very well.
Good luck.
