240sx Collectors car?

[USDM_OneVia]

I can possibly get Collectors Tags for my car and avoid ECheck forever IF I can prove the 240sx is a collectors car. Straight from the horses mouth....

In an effort to ensure that all vehicles registered as collector vehicles are truly collectible, the Bureau of Motor Vehicles references the National Automobile Dealers Association, Classic, Collectible, and Special Interest Car Appraisal Guide or the 4th Edition Standard Catalog of American Cars 1946-1975 (Krause Publications) or The Complete Book of Collectible Cars 1930-1990 (Consumer Guide) to determine vehicles that are true collector vehicles. Although we recognize that a vehicle may be unique because of time, energy and investment expended by the owner, these publications are used in determining eligibility for collector’s license plates. Due to a administrative ruling, vehicle models not listed in the above publications may be considered collector vehicles if the applicant obtains documentation from the manufacturer that the vehicle was in limited production, is in demand as a collectible vehicle at the time of application or a sizable investment can be proven.

The last part is what has me intrigued. I wonder what the production run was for my model and what determines an "in demand" collectible vehicle. I guess I am making a phone call to the DMV this week.

That is interesting, let us know how it works out.

Also, they are definately in demand as i'll be searching for a clean 240 shell over the next several months until i find one just the way i want it.

why would it be a collectors car? it was mass produced. i see 80 year old women, 16 year old kids, and middle aged men with their entire families driving them every single day. It is far from a collectors car.

Technically, its not, but if he could fool a few people into letting him register it as a collectors car. Then that's all he needs.
