那些年,我們一起迷過的平民跑車
Datsun 240Z ????日產(chǎn)公司(Nissan)的第一款Datsun 240Z跑車一經(jīng)推出便受到了如潮的好評,讀到這些評論后,我那不靠譜的MG立時被打入冷宮,我一心只想買下這款日本跑車。沒出幾個星期,我就花了3,500美元從一位私人車主那里購買了一輛幾乎全新的1970年的Datsun 240Z。幾天后,我開著它在密歇根到洛杉磯間跑了一個來回,沒有開空調(diào),一路上它的表現(xiàn)時時刻刻都讓我滿意。幾年后,這輛車因融雪鹽腐蝕而報廢了,不過它扎實的可靠性還是讓我在之后的很多年都很買日本車的賬。 |
Datsun 240Z ????After reading rave reviews for the first Z-car, my unreliable MG became yesterday's news, and I coveted nothing less than the Japanese Jaguar. Within weeks, I located a barely used 1970 model and paid full sticker of $3,500 to buy it from a private owner. Days later I drove it from Michigan to Los Angeles and back again, sans air conditioning, and loved every minute. Road salt took its toll on the Z after a few years, but its rock-solid reliability sold me on Japanese cars for a long time. |
