I wish I could buy this.

Repaint it with the NICO logo and use it as our "rolling billboard" for all events and meets.... Maybe even use it as the starting point for the NICO drift car?

You guys would all kick in $5, right? :D

I'm with ya, but I want dark gray, Silvia front end and leather interior. Heck while I'm at it, let's say RB25 or 26.

Wouldn't a drop top be bad for drifting? And I don't mean from a safety standpoint. Driftologists speak up.

with the proper bracing it's just as sturdy for drifting as a coupe..

Oh, it would get a Silvia front end right away, but the white paint would stay.

And leather would be installed soon thereafter.

And I'd sell all the audio crap. No need. :)

This is a back burner/long term project for me as well, but I'm gonna keep/add some serious era-appropriate car audio. I've already got a Phoenix Gold MS-275 amp. Would jump on a Special Edition PG from that time if I can find it. I'll just keep adding poines to offsett the weight of the stereo system :D.

Here's your white with Silvia - See it, make it happen :DClick image for full size pic

I'd pitch in, but I already have one :pface

I want a new S15 turbo for mine... :(

The car itself is sturdy enough. If you want, I can send you schematics for all the extra bracing a convertible gets. It still feels a bit on the floppy side, but not as bad as people keep saying. A good rollbar will fix it though.

You only have 8 days left to start bidding Greg. And it is only $4000. I think you should get it, it is what you've always wanted. Come on Greg, it's only a little money. Heck, I'll even make a $10 contribution.

Gahhhh!

Black would be fine too. From what I've seen, the 3 factory colors for the droptop were red, black and white. I don't like red, so either of the others are fine.

Drop some new wheels on it, stiffen it up, put NICO stuff all over it and pimp it out! If I had some way of contributing I would... :(. Good luck!

come on, buy it.

you know you can afford it.

you can just force a member ship fee.

(this is the voice of bad reasoning speaking here)

think of all the women you could obtain with it, don't even have to worry about the wind messing up your hair.

Come on, let's get back on track here. Greg needs to buy this car for all of us here on NICO. We must keep pressing him to fork over the dough for the 240 convert.
