the vert is a fun car. especially once you get to modifying it. It's as reliable as any other S13, and I have found it to be a bit stiffer due to the extra body bracing. But it's primary downside is extra bulk. Then again, nothing matches the feeling of a quick 0-60 with the wind in your hair.

Verts are awesome...a bit heavy and stiff but I love it. If you want a ride that'll break necks...a vert is the way to go...even when it's stock you will get noticed. Also, the tops were actually built pretty good so it should last you a while. The rear window is a b*tch to keep clean though. The pros outweight the cons if you ask me...it's a great car IMHO.

Que tal, machuelo!

Lo siento, mi Espanol is muy, muy mal. Pero tienes un foro en Espanol, si prefieres.

Mira aqui: zeroforum/183

El 240 convertible esta el mismo del S13 coupe. Usualmente, las interior y el tranmision es la problema primera. Pero el carro es muy dependable, y partes y manenarse son facil.

El S13 es un carro muy capable. Con pocas modificaciones puede competir con los S2000 y Integras GSR. Tienes que tener en cuenta que sin modificaciones no es un carro "veloz". Es muy bueno, y te vas a divertir manejandolo, eso es seguro, pero no es lo que la mayoria de las personas considerarian "veloz".Tambien, para que sepas, el convertible solo fue ofrecido con la transmision automatica asi que si quieres un manual vas a tener que optar por uno con techo normal, o cambiar trasmision y embriaje para convertirlo en manual.Pasa por las seccion de Nico en Espanol y saludanos! :-D

Translations...in case anyone cares...

AZ:

1. wassup machuelo2. My spanish is very bad3. We have a spanish version of the forum4. the coupe is san similar as the vert5. First things to go are usually the interior and the tranny6. The car is dependable...parts galore.7. Welcome to Nico homey.

seyath:

1. The S13 is a very CAPABLE car.2. The vert can compete with the s2k and GSR wth just a few mods (it aint quick stock). It's a good car and you will love it, but know that most people don't consider it quick.3. Also, the vert was only offered with the auto transmission - so if you want a manual, you will need to do a swap.
