I'm new to the 240 game, and i'm just wondering if i'm getting ripped off.
‎5 Speed 1992 Nissan 240SX with 130,000 miles on it The car and engine are in GREAT condition and is perfect for a 240 enthusiast. There is a hairline leak in the exhaust that can be easily soldered. Car receives timely oil changes with fuel injector cleaner every 3 fill ups. I have only put premium gas in the vehicle since I've owned it. Breaks and Rotors are new. Tires are also new. L.I.D. head lights Tinted Windows/Tail Lights Cold Air Intake Short Throw Shifter Front Strut Bar Custom Exhaust Stage 2 ClutchPremium 17" Chrome Rims with New Low Profile TiresPioneer In-Dash DVD Player Interior Pioneer Speakers Twelve Inch Rockford Fosgate 1500W Max Subwoofer 1800W 4 Channel Rockford Fosgate Amplifier. A/C: Rear, Power Steering, CD Player, Premium Sound, A/C: Front, Rear Window Defroster, Tinted Glass. Has a very clean body.

He's asking for 3750, but i'm trying to lower it.
What do you think a good price for this is?

Ripoff. You could find a swapped S13 with coilovers for not much more than that. Just off the top of my head, I bet the wheels are worthless. Tell him to keep them and audio bullsh*t and offer him $2500 tops.

$2500 is the most I'd pay for an essentially stock S13. For $3750, you should be looking at immaculate S14 Zenkis.

ya 3750 is terrible. his custom exhaust is probably an ebay exhaust. hes throwing a lot of drift tax for a s13 with just a intake/ cheap exhaust and sway bar....hmmm

i payed 2700 for my 93 s13 5 speed. 102,xxx was "bone stock" except tokico blues springs and shocks and strut bars and no radio. so yes take all that audio crap out, and give him 2500 tops. cause mine was and still is prefect body. 1% rust(damn battery tray). :)

"note" i am not a orville pig d!ck honkey nor do i like turbo diesel f350's. 240's can be found here but are usually not abused as older ppl drive them. i am 18 so i can this "older ppl" :)

If it's a really mint condition 240. Paint still has a good shine, no big dents, clean interior, I'd be willing to pay $3000 for it, but that's the highest I would go. Most afermarket parts that people put on their car actually decreases the value of their car. Like mentioned before, most of those parts are probably ebay parts and I'm almost 100% sure that the wheels have the wrong offset.
