I just picked up a 96 240 the outside is clean except the front bumper which has paint peeling. Its completely stock except a pipe. I believe it has aftermarket struts because i feel every bump in the road because its so stiff. Anyway my tach doesnt work nor the speed senor and it has over 200k miles and 3 engine senors are bad ( one is the CPS which is my tach problem ) my clutch is slipping bad and there is a loud popping noise coming from the rear suspension when i let of or hit a bump. ( not a backfire ) i got the car for 2k and the interior is clean as can be. oh and a head light is out so do yall think i got the better of the bargain?Even though it has its faults I am now a proud s14 owner after 3 years of waiting.

Sounds like you bought a lot of problems and a lot of miles. You probably would have come out ahead if you bought something in good condition for more money. Oh well, have fun if that's what you wanted. It's your car.
