Whats up guys....I found a 240sx se for sale and the guy said he would do a trade for my civic and $1500 and i dont know what to do. My car is a Civic 98 coupe 140,000 miles. It has a cold air intake,automatic start, cross drilled rotors and recentely got some falkens on it but it does have a couple dents on the the door. The 240 is bone stock with 107,000 miles it has a few scrathes on the bumper but overall clean. Thanks for the help!

I don't think anyone could answer your questions w/o seeing both cars and driving them. Does the car have any problems that will need to be fixed? How much were your Falkens? There was an issue of sport compact car that had a complete S13 buyer's guide that showed what to look for, etc. Do you plan to swap the engine? Etc etc. I'd drive the 240 over a civic any day of the week but if he wants to trade find out why? Is he more into FWD or does he know his car is going to be nothing but problems and he wants out before that happens. Mileage means nothing. If you drive your car easy and he was attempting to drift his car to be cool all of the time there is going to be nothing but problems. You get what you pay for..I love 240's but I bought a newer Xterra because it's reliable. We can't always get what we want.
