I owned both versions (84 and 90...both non turbo). The 84 was pretty tame and not a hardcore sportscar like the earlier z's but was a technology marvel for it's day. You have to look at them in the context of the era they were produced and what other cars were available at the time. The 90 was a great car and I regret selling it every single day as it was a lot more aggressive than the first gen 300zx and had some of the best styling out there. Plan on purchasing a twin turbo whenever I get the chance again.
