Hi I am new to this board I have posted once before about purchasing a 89240sx but that fell through. But now I have moved on and found a 95 240sx se and will hopefully be purchasing it on Tuesday, it has 101,000 miles and is black I know it has the 5 spoke wheals, sunroof and spoiler and it is a 5speed. But I was wondering what I should look out for when they drop it off at my house on Monday for a test-drive and also what other options did the se's come with.

-thanks for any help, Justin

If the clutch feels squishy, it's time for a new one.

Get the VIN # and run it through Carfax.com

Change oil, plugs, wires, transmission oil/fluid, differential oil, brake fluid, clutch fluid, coolant.

Replace fuel filter, oil filter, air filter, and if you are feeling froggy, belts and timing chain.

That sounds like a nice deal. Find out if it has abs, lsd, or leather seats. Those are the options that SE's offered that I can remember.

Im also looking into a 95 se. it doesnt have a sunroof or power locks so i guess it was the cheapes SE with no other options.

Anyways can anyone help me out on what to look for? im gonna go check it out today and i wanna know what to look for.

I had a carfax done and it turned out great. no rollbacks or anything fishy. It was originally titled as a rental car.

any imput would be appreciated, thanx.

thats one of the reasons that attracted me to it. it only has 85k miles and the guy gave a legit reason for selling. he said his wife wanted an SUV so they had to sell that or a 99 altima.
