Alright, so I need some price quotes from you ppl on what you think my 240 is worth. Im really considering selling it and saving for a porsche 944. Im not gonna tell you what I think its worth because the car enthusiasts always think ther car is worth more then they sell it for. THIS IS NOT A FOR SALE THREAD, I ONLY WANT OPINIONS ON WHAT MY CAR IS WORTH. And if the mods think the thread should be lock/moved then please do so.

Stats:1991 Nissan 240sx HB~180K miles (odometer broke at 153K)NEW paint, it has some runs on the driver side, only ~3 weeks old.NEW 5 lug rotorsNEW brake padsNEW ichiba front hubsS14 5 lug rear hubs ~145k on them when i got them off the donor carBlack DYED carpet, did myself5 speedComplete Interioruncracked dashFlowmaster muffler from Previous OwnerHard to start when the engine is hot and I have no time between college and work to try and fix it.Overall an awesome car.

Realistically, it's worth about $2000. You could probably get $2500 for it though.

id say 2500. Your guna regret selling it buddy. especially for a porsche. You should compare part prices for the 2 first. Might change your mind. My fiance wants a 944 i told her she cant afford one. lol if she gets one im ka swapping that pos!

Porsche parts are going to be maddd expensive, you can have just as fun of a car with the s13 as you would with the 944. You just won't have the "prestige" associated with the coat of arms. S13 will be way cheaper in the end.

P.S. My car is back on campus, I owe you a drive. Maybe then you'll decide to keep the 240 haha.

Dude! I was waiting for you to chime in. And Ive been looking at some prices of parts and porsche parts are "maddd" expensive. And with my income and college and crap looks like im sticking with the deuce.

When are you free for that drive? I work nights the rest of the week.

hahaha 994's cost a FORTUNE to maintain.

if you cant afford one without selling your 240, you cant afford one period.

I have a good parking spot so I'm not driving it until Friday, maybe we can go on a cookout run. Even with cracked ring lands I think it will convince you that you don't need a 944
