Thanks man. I was thinking $10, but I guess I over estimated. I'll let you know if you're the highest bidder.

10K? You guys are fooling yourselves. If you get a dime over 8500 for an LE, congratulations you've just struck idiot.

Why sell?

There are two '97's in a junk yard near by that I want to bring back from the dead. I have connections with a great body shop here and they would be willing to do the work in return for advertising on the cars. I could just stay with mine, but with you guys putting 20lbs of boost in 240's and drifting into a trees so often, all will be gone soon :)I'm just trying to repopulate the US with S14's.

Good enough reason?

BTW,

I'm sure you guys are wondering about the crack house in the background of some of the pictures. It is my lake house that I'm fixing up. Not exactly the best back drop for my car, but oh well.

Not everyone drifts into trees (if you were joking on that note). Thats a really nice car and if I owned it I wouldn't sell it unless I couldn't afford it. Going by Kelly Blue Book, I'd say $8grand to $10grand.

Ooooh.... so pretty. My favorite color and a 5-spd LE to boot. How about a straight trade for a red '98 KA-T with 48,000 miles? Just kidding. But, if I was in the market, I'd jump on it. Looks pretty much stock, though, so I wouldn't go any higher than 10,750 probably.

Yeah, I was joking about the turbo/drifting comments. You must admit that the number of S14 240's in the US is slowly decreasing due to ridiculous repair costs. The low production quantities in '97 and '98 make it worse than with other cars.

in the picture album it says "no title".. I think he misinterpreted that as meaning the car has no title.

As for price, You should be able to get $10k for it. I think KBB underestimates the values of 240sx's... I know it definately does for Southern California. The recent resurgence of the 240s should help increase the price. I wish I could have it :(

On the picture heading it says "no title" So I’m guessing that means you didn’t put a title for the pictures listed.. I was thinking for a minute that you were saying you have no title.. My bad:oface

You guys have got to be kidding.

If someone pays 10k for a 7 year old 240 they are an idiot. I payed 9k for my 96 5 YEARS AGO!
