Hi,

I was looking into buying a 240sx as a first car and was wondering if this was a good idea. I was thinking of a 1990, and wondered if anyone had any advice on this.

Thanks Jeff

with any luck this will be my first and last car. Actually I hope my 240 will last 20 years and then I'll buy my 300z or monte carlo.

Hey! Nissans are Great Cars!Just wondering what made you want a 1990? Put some thought into which car you get and dont jump on the first one you run into.Price range and ins. are the two most comman factors.:thumbup BTW Quote »Actually I hope my 240 will last 20 years and then I'll buy my 300z or monte carlo. [/quote] If you ever compare those two cars again you most likely not like the out come.;) :boxing

Heh, you have now joined the ranks of 240 non-owners looking for one. Good luck, shouldn't be that hard anyway, but it seems some of us have really bad luck. (Sweet, 9 months, 3 days left)

If I had to do it again, I'd probably buy a later year though, with the DOHC engine.

the 91 model has the upgraded KA24DE engine. if i could do it again, i would also take a 91 over a 90. i have a 90 and its great, but nothing wrong with 15 extra horses.
