Showroom condition (despite a bit dusty) 1993 300ZX found in storage facility...

http://forums.corvetteforum.com/sho...d.php?t=1907115

A salesman apparently stole the car when it was new, locked it up in storage, paid about $17k for the storage facility over the years, told the owners he no longer needed the storage, so they opened it up and found the lost 300ZX. Statute of Limitations is up, so he's not going to have any charges pressed against him... but at the same time, he spent $17k to store a car he never got to drive.

Unfortunately, NA auto. Probably so that they wouldn't spend the time hunting him down (the people in power would spend more time pursuing the more valuable model), but it'd have been much cooler if it were a loaded TT.

I wish I had the money to lock up something nice... like a Porsche GT3 or better yet a GTR :tongue:

Take it out and enjoy it like a finely aged wine...
 
hmmmm... wonder if i could lock my car up and report it stolen... take insurance money and have a nice deposit for my flatblack m5 and still have my snowcar...
 
I wonder what was the sticker price for that thing back then? and yes, he should have taken the twin turbo instead. I also wonder if it starts, I would say the battery is probably gone:laugh: and the gasoline probably turned into vaseline...
