Editor’s Note: We love scouring the internet for reasons to spend money we don’t have on cars we daydream about owning, and these are our picks this week. All prices listed are bid amounts at the time of publishing.
The ’80s were an incredible time for car culture. The horsepower figures were a bit on the lower side, but bombastic paint jobs, loud colorways and experimental new technology more than made up for that lack. It was a wonderful time during which digital displays complimented largely analog cars. Almost everything seemed to have a turbo under the hood — and let you know with big stylized graphics down the side. This week’s Found is made up of five examples that beautifully represent the excess of the era.
1988 Nissan 300ZX Turbo
What we like: Its digital tachometer is worth the opening bid, alone.
From the seller: A repaint and interior freshening were carried out from 2014 to 2015, followed by a cooling system overhaul in 2016, and receipts show a timing belt replacement in recent years.
