Well, I was driving around yesterday and this little blue car caught my attention @ my local Oldsmobile dealership. It turned out to be a 1998 Nissan 200sx SE that was owned by some old lady, and it had 61k miles on it. The dealership wanted $7500 for it, but I told the salesman that was way out of my budget (Has to be 6k or less). I left them my Name and number in case they would come down on the price, and by the time I had gotten home from the dealership, I had a message on my answering machine! :) They agreed to come down - and I walked away with it last night :cool:

I like it. It's in PERFECT condition. It's not as fast as my '89 Maxima, but that's ok (I don't need to be speeding/racing anyway :p). All in all, I'm happy wiht my purchase :)

Nice car. :) Looks like it's in great shape!

BTW, why do little old ladies seem to be the former owners of such a disproportiantely high number of used cars?!

Nice car. Its light with a decent amount of zip, especially since you got the 5-speed. Change that boot and get some real rims and your're good to go. I'd also lose that air deflector on the sunroof, unless ir factory. I can't remember whether it is or not.
