Default what do you think this Z is worth??

I am basically about to buy this 92 300ZX Twin Turbo with perfect black leather interior,of course a 5 speed and a 2 seater with only 26K original miles on the car, the only problem it has is a blown head gasket, how much do you think this Z is worth??

I've owned 2 300ZX TTs, and I'll tell you right now. 26k miles + blown headgasket = 5k or so. Also, if the headgasket is blown @ 26,000 miles... You can bet that there are other problems that you can't see.

it did raise questions but it was my friends, he beat the hell out of it and I already had a shop look at it to make sure nothing is wrong with it...I have driven this car before it blew the head gasket and she ran like a champ

if you can get it cheap then more power to you, but with a blown headgasket, there could be other hidden problems

How many miles are on the motor? I know there isn't 26,000 miles on the motor. I would have HIM fix it, do a compression test and do a leakdown test. Good luck and nice car.
