Let down & discouraged...

[supra brit]

Well, of course, I got my hopes up only to get them shot back down...

My friend's sister's boyfriend was going to trade his CRX for the '96 240 with the R33 front-end (why the guy wanted a Honda is beyond me) and then sell it to me for about $2500...

Today someone offered him $2000 cash for the CRX, and he accepted.

So no f-in 1996 240SX for me.

I give up, I'm sick of looking and finding nothing but over-pricing or pieces of junk that I can't afford to repair.

I just don't know what to do now.

Get an SE-R to suffice your Nissan need til you find a 240 .

Cheer up, we're here!

[supra brit]

I cant afford an se-r either...

[nametakennow]

$2k will get you a B13, the ultimate sleeper... that'll run fine til you find a 240.

[Nismo_Freak]

Move to Austin, you can drive mine, I guarantee I'm cheaper than they are!

[supra brit]

I want a 240 though, nothing else...that's the problem

[supra brit]

Just like men...I guess I'm too picky...that's why I'm single & car-less

[NoStickers]

Umm, good things come to those who wait, right?

EDIT: Actually that I think about it, I don't believe that so just ignore me and go hunting some more, you'll get one.

[supra brit]

i guess you're right...but i'm so impatient!

[NoStickers]

you ever look @ autotrader.com? I see 17 240s within 50miles of you

[supra brit]

they're all auto

[NoStickers]

damn...um 5speed swap

[supra brit]

like i can afford it...i was thinkin about it but unless i find a better job...it aint happenin

[nametakennow]

What do you do?

[supra brit]

It's tragic really...I work at a damn tanning salon...I don't belong there either, but I don't know anyone else who is hiring, so I guess I'm stuck...

[Nismo_Freak]

Just like men...I guess I'm too picky...that's why I'm single & car-less

Nah, just means you have to wait longer.

[supra brit]

i hate waiting, i am so impatient...i mean the good thing is that i will *slowly* save up a *little* more money...but I just want my 240 now

[NoStickers]

What do you drive now?

[dr!ft]

Hey, there's nothing wrong with being picky. Just look at my want-ad: http://www.nissaninfiniticlub....72352

Also note how few people are responding...

i was like that too, was thinking of all kinds of ways to get money for an s-13 (for like 3 years) then a couple months ago, a lady totaled my car and i now have my dream car, found it literaly the day i had my car totaled. so it worked out in the end.

and after i am done with the chiropractor, i should get a settlement offer and i will have some mod money (i hope)

i love karma

just keep your chin up and your eyes open and one will fall right into your lap.

[supra brit]

I'm riding with friends (in their 240s and z's hehe), cept to work I drive the parents' minivan grrr

[GEO]

Need a shoulder to cry on?

[supra brit]

yes please

[GEO]

wait wait, maybe your parents will surpise you with one on your birthday?

[supra brit]

YEAH RIGHT!!!! trust me, they aint even gonna pay for tags

[dr!ft]

Hey, it's probably better than an Izusu...

[supra brit]

it's not my van...i only drive it down the road to work...and it's not satisfying me

[NoStickers]

why dont you guys get some fixer upper 240s? mine cost $700 w/ a broken door and 150k miles on the ka, besides its fun working on cars

[MaineExport]

You can buy mine.... what's your budget?

I really don't "want" to get rid of it... but I don't need it anymore... so if the price is right I might be convinced to sell.

[dr!ft]

Yeah, I was thinking about getting a beater and then turining it into something beautiful. But I'd rather start off with a clean slate...
