So I'm looking for another 240, preferably a s14 as a dd. I been on Craigslist every day for almost a week and find nothing but badly scarred s13s with blown motors or s*** primer paint jobs or severe rust buckets. As mentioned the Chicago 240s have dried up. Just wanted to rant about my frustration, feel free to join.

I actually spoke to some guy with a 96 s14 with kouki front conversion. 212k miles, auto trans, rust at the rocker panels, and no paint to hood or fenders. That's as good as it got for 3,150.00. Imma think about it

I've had a few offers for my car, but I kept turning them down due to this reason. I know sooner or later I'll want to get back into the 240 scene and it'd be nearly impossible to find another clean one without paying out the @ss.
