i've never seen one, but it's not going to help the price too much. you would be lucky to find an enthusiast that actually cared that it was a slick top. 5.5K at most considering everything works and is in nice condition.

There were 2,792 slicktops made in 1986.
Check here and put in all of the options you have on your car.
Color, Auto or Manual etc. to see how many were made like yours.

there not as rare as most people think, hell theres three of them at a local junkyard and that and if your on the west coast it shouldn't be too difficult to find. that and who wants a z31 oven? hell if it wasnt for having t-tops these cars get very hot when they sit outside in the sun.

The turbo slick tops are pretty darn rare and for those who
run SCCA and other track events like the slicktop for the "less flex" factor.
I am on the east coast and have yet to see one on the road.

honestly i dont think there is a difference in stifness. to be honest with you, and a turbo slicktop doesnt exist from the factory. slicktops where the most basic models of the z31.
