It's goin on e-bay in a few days. How much do you guys think I'll get for it?

Should I start it at 1 cent or not? If so, should I set a reserve? Buy it now?

I'd be ecstatic to get 1k, I'm in a financially bad place now. No collision coverage sucks, so now I gotta get a beater.

I would part it out but I don't have the time to let it sit in the yard or the tools to pull it apart. I'd get coded before I got rid of it all.

Concrete block wall. Slid along some of the wall until I met with a corner that spun my car around. You think my cars bad? You should see the wall :-D. Well anyways, I just got a 96 Mazda MX-6 LS today(yea yea, start flames now. It was cheap and the dealer actually financed me). I hope it runs for at least year till I can save up for another s14.

MX-6 arent a bad car to get if you NEED a car. Although me and my friend did beat an MX-6 with an exhaust in my friends 1990 Stanza with just an intake

An MX-6 isn't so bad. Some people say its even better.

I remember reading a 1997 coupe roadtest and the 240 really came out bad when compared to the V6 MX-6, Prelude, and Eclipse GSX.

I test drove an auto V6 MX-6 and wasn't impressed. The V-6 sounded nice WOT, but the car was extremely slow. It redlined higher than my 240, around 7k I think. The low end was extremely lacking. It seemed to pick up a little better towards the top end, but my s14 seemes alot faster & more responsive. Didn't really impress upon me that it was a V6, but it does only have a .1 liter and like 9 HP advantage over our 240's.

I did like that the MX-6 seemed more luxurious though.

GSXLude(Vtec, 195Hp)240MX-6

its quite alot of damage and alot of things need to be replaced, ive rebuilt several cars so i can already tell its alot to replace, but if its a clean title, then i things its do-able for me atlease. i have to talk to people about how much it would really cost, but if i would guess, im gunna guess around $700- 900 for it? i can already tell there might be some frame damage and other damage. BTW is it 4 lug or 5 lug?

Sounds good. How long before you think you can come look at it/pick it up? I'm afraid if I let it sit too long it's gonna get stickered by county.
