(mines a 89 se) i mean they are so low profile and very sleek, i love the fact that when i pul up behind a civic or any sedan that my head is the same lvl as their trunk. i dont have lowering springs either, its just the fact that our cars are drop dead sexy, i love they way they look wide, i mean sure its not like crazy wide but the stance of the car makes it look like one mean mother. anyway im just rambling on, let me know what you think makes the 240 such a sexy car

. take it easy guys.
I totaly agree, I've always thought the original '89 240sx had an amazingly sexy look. It's a clean simple sleek shape, without a lot of extra tacky body cladding (like pontiac ) ,without excessive horizontal lines (like a probe), without side/fender/hood mounted scoops, bulges and flares, (think mitsubishi). IMHO the biggest mistake 240sx owners make is adding on all the extra personalized stuff to it(wings, scoops, spoilers, flares, weird tail lights, etc) that detract from the beauty of the stock shape. I've always wondered why so many owners insist on making their 240's look unique, when there aren't that many of them around to begin with. The 89 240's two main weakpoints are a lack of horsepower and no cupholders. My feeling is if you want to improve your 240, look under the hood, not on top of it.
Sorry if I offended anyone, just my humble opinion and you don't have to agree with me.
