Agreed.
Any car that has some aftermarket rims and a oatmeal can for a exhust pipe has prob. not seen a easy life.

I'm not limiting myself to 240's, but i love the RWD, like the looks, and from my brief web researching in the past few hours they seem to really have potential if I wanted to upgrade later.

Price - guy says 3700 i don't think I'd offer more than 3500 for it though.

1993 240sx SE
5 speed tranny
117k
White
power windows, locks, sunroof
Few mods, haven't checked em out yet but will do:
tenzor 17inch poke ten rims in white
kouki 180sx taillights
blitz nurspec catback exhaust
hotshot headers
injen intake with cold air extension
ngk performance plugs
bosch platinum 2 plugs
pioneer head unit with 12 inch fosgate sub and amp

Crappy pics can be seen here

Car has 2 small dents the guy says, in the front fender and bumper, waiting on pics of it. I'd get to see and drive the car before I bought of course :)
I haven't found out how many owners the car has yet, or the current owner's age or anything or ran a carfax report, I just found the car on a nissan forum this evening.



Anyhow, from the info I've got and gave you, do you think 3500 is a reasonable price to pay for this car?
I'm 18, need a car so I can get a real job this year, and my parents are helping me out a bit with insurance because I'll be driving my brother to hockey every damned day this winter and helping out in other ways.

Anyhow, what do you extremely intelligent guys and gals think?

Thanks for the input

I'd try to stay away from modified cars, or atleast heavy modified cars.

But the price sounds right. Does it have a VLSD and ABS? Or SuperHICAS?

Over here in Toronto, the price on a 240SX is HEAVILY inflated. A 93 goes for about $7-9k CDN dollars, which is about $5-6k USD.

Hehehe. When the guy from the shop that was fixing my 240sx drove it back, he said they are in high demand these days. (I destroyed the right front fender on a pole :()
