Post by **navysnail** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:17 pm

I'm down in your part of the world in September... by then you could afford it I'm sure! I'll drop it off... you test drive it for the weekend... and when I get ready to leave you can buy it or send it back with me!!

riiight...why would u do that 4 me? and how much u want like $8? 240s r way overpriced now, when i 1st started lookin at them b4 i had $$, they were actually affordable...f-in $5xxx for an early-90s car is ridiculous!

What bout this one?

Ehhh?

Post by **MaineExport** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:17 pm

Well... now they're overpriced because all the geeks that drove Civics want a 240 because it's the new "cool" car that's easy to build up. I bought mine 4 years ago and I KNOW I can get at least as much for it as I paid back then. THANK YOU GROWING IMPORT SCENE!!!!

But anyway... that's not the point. I will be coming down south a couple times to race this fall anyway... so it won't cost much more to drive my 240 down there if I had someone interested in buying it.

I realize you don't want to wait that long... so I was just throwing the idea out there to be a jack-a$$.

BUUUUT.... if you still don't have a 240 by then... I am totally serious... I'd do it. I haven't put much thought into the price yet... but it wouldn't be $8000... that's for sure. It's still got a KA in it for cryin' out loud... it ain't worth quite that much!

that white s13 got 194k miles...but I guess i could look at it...

Post by **supra brit** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:17 pm

Maine,we'll see...hopefully I will have somethin by sept though

Post by **MysteryIncMan** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:17 pm

At least its a 240. If it does have a bad motor buy a used KA. My friends 240 just got totaled i can ask him how much it would be for his motor if you really need to know.

Don't be afraid to pick up something that needs some work.

my parents dont understand why i want this particular car (my dad once suggested a mustang or a honda...HAHA!!) and they dont get the whole fix-up thing...it's because i'm a girl, they want me to have a "safe, economical car"...pisses me off too. i'm just gonna buy what i want though, it's my money & my choice

Post by **Jesda** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:17 pm

A 240 is pretty safe, pretty darn good on gas. Just shock your folks and come home with a Q45. You can ride with the big boys!

ha ha!

They are just as un-affordable as any fixer-upper 240sx that likely has an engine swap, suspension/chassis, rear end, and paint work in it's future, no?

Post by **Fish240** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:17 pm

I feel your pain, althought I had a 240 but mine was stolen april 4th, its almost impossible to find a 240 here in cali for what I paid before since the drift craze is pretty big now

Post by **supra brit** » Tue Jul 13, 2004 4:17 pm

awww im sorry

yeah this craze is pissin me off, f-in honda ricers!

I played some numbers, and the average age of a NICO Q45 owner is 24.

So nyeh.

nothin' wrong with rockin' the mini van.

they're awesome when you get a bunch of friends together, or have one of the 3.8 Lumina vans and take a Mustang GT in a drag (poor guy couldn't work the manual very well:D)

surely you can find a 240 before too long, or a nice substitute.

Take El Weasel out of the mix and you'll get 48... no cheating on ages!

If you can source the parts, an S13 can be fixed for relatively cheap. Bought mine for 200 dollars, and most of the money that I've spent has been on fluids...:oface

edit: my 2nd one
