Hope you guys don't hate me but its not an audi. I usually dont post much because i usually find all the answers needed for my A6. Well the project car is a 1990 300zx twin turbo. I just finished stripping bumpers and side skirts to put back to original. (had an ugly body kit) Also the interior is stripped to put in a black interior i bought. Here are some pictures.
This is what i want it to look like in the end. I like the original look in white plus a black roof.
this is the car that has become a little neglected and dirty because of it
Awesome man! cant wait to see it done. Besides german cars, my absolute favorite cars are early 90's Japanese cars, 3000GT,300ZX,Supra,RX7,NSX,Skyline...etc etc, just sold my 3000GT :(

Those are great cars. awd and twin turbo is always good. lol, why sell it?
it was the lowest millage 3000GT in the US also, 1991 VR4 never in rain or washed off with water before, only 14,543 miles on it, my dad was the orig owner, and since he passed away last year it has been sitting in storage for a year, and i had no time to drive or use it, so we sold it, just to many cars and no one to drive them all, heh. but im a big fan of the 300ZX. It should be a real fun when you get it done.

X2. Don't forget 240SX and Silvia variants. A 1992 300ZX TT was my original lust box. To be honest, the early and mid 90's were the golden years for many of the cars I love. Think Volvo's, BMW's, Toyota's, Jeep's, Saab's, and the list goes on.
Regardless of the flavor, project cars always hold a special place to any real car enthusiast.

That car must have been amazing
Yea i agree with guys i always loved the japanese sports cars from this time and i always wanted a 300zx
well not yet, its about 90% complete, i have the glass and interior that needs done, then its set, either i finish it or sell it....not worried about it yet, heh
nice man!! i really need a project car to just tinker with!! I would love to put the a6 up and do a manual conversion with a supercharger but that alone would prolly run 15-20k so that is out for now haha. Was looking at a 95 s6 2.2l 5 cylinder turbo but the guy wont respond

I drive an Audi, it isn't in the shop to be repaired. It is in the shop to be maintained.
At least thats what I tell myself in order to keep a level head!

Tomas, your A6 has become more than just a little neglected. In fact neglected isn't even the word lol. Can't wait to see the 300zx up and running by next summer, big plans for it and I know when you put your mind to something you do it. I might just have to take the A6 off your hands and give it some tlc, since you are slacking ;)

could you buy the parts cheap over there and bring them back to the states with you?

You will love the car. I had a 91 300zx TT with twin GT28RS. It was FAST.. I miss some things about it, except the lack of traction after experiencing AWD.. But classics...
