I have a 1997 240sx with 98000 miles on it. No rusting, needs a little body work and a paint job (living in Louisiana, a lot of sap and stuff gets on it and that never comes off). I love my car but it deserves to be in the hands of someone who will treat her like she deserves to be treated.

its just regular, I never had enough money to do any mods which was a big let down to me. It'd automatic transmission sadly, it was a hand-me-down from my sister. It's in great condition, floor mats and all.

Don't sell it, give it to me. :gapteeth:

Top dollar for me would $4000 for an automatic kouki that need paint and body work, completely dependent where the damage to the body is and the extent of said damage, but the rest of it would have to be damn near immaculate.

EDIT: Post a few pics, it will help us get an idea of the condition of the car.

There is a dent on the front of the hood because someone backed into it. We fixed the bumper but I didn't have the money to fix the hood. And she needs paint on top and between the rear windshield and the spoiler. There are 1 or 2 small dents because I live on a college campus and no one f*** knows how to get out of a car correctly or handle their liquor. The inside is in great condition. We've taken care of her. Like I said, she's getting along in age and I want her to be in the hands of someone who will treat her the way she was meant to be treated

$4k at best. So list it For 5kobo.

Koukis are worth something but mostly only if 5speed and immaculate.

Still waiting for pics... I'd want more than 4K for that car, drift tax counts for something

For that mileage the car would bring 4k pretty easy. That being said I offer you $2500 :) What color is it also? Certain colors seem to bring more money. You said regular but if it is has 5 lug nuts it is most likely an SE and thus worth more. Make sure you know what exactly you have before you sell it.

I would say she could probably get 5K depending on what the pics show. It's rare to find a kouki in good shape and a carbon fiber hood would fix the problem. A ton of people would be willing to dish out 4k if you wanted to sell it extremely quick, even if its a 4 lug and the hood is bad enough to need replacing. I'm interested to sell just how good of shape the interior is in. Most 240's I've seen have rips, tears, and fade somewhere on the dash or door panels.

I left her in Baton Rogue for the weekend but I'll take pics when I get back to her. She's white on the outside with a black interior.
