i was looking at my car earlier today and has anyone else noticed how god damn sexy they are. (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 :D. take it easy guys.

Hmmm, my opinion is that I like the trunk of the older 240's over the newer ones. And I like the front of the newer ones over the older ones. But overall, I think its the best looking car thats affordable.

I love the 91-94 alloys, that's why they're on my 89. <3The teardrops from the 89-90 on the other hand... :(

i got the stock rims, but my baby sits a bit lower with the prokit, and there's less wheel gap.

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.

I totally agree! My car is completely stock on the outside and NO SPOILER (not even stock) infact I wouldn't put a spoiler on my car if someone paid me and held me by gun point!

and I found a great cupholder that straps to the lid of the center console glove compartment, never spilled anything yet and it adjusts even big enough to hold a super sized McDonalds coke.

before I got that cupholder I just pulled the ash tray out and put my drink in there.

I just love the front end. Pop-up headlights, front bumper, subtle flare on the fenders. I also like frameless door windows.

The over-simplicity of the dash often annoys me. Honestly, I think Honda makes better dashboards and consoles sometimes.

Neon Washer Nozzles... Ouch.

I got the new Need For Speed Underground and it's fun and all, but.. All the F & F stuff kinda irks me. The Vynl, the stickers, neon lights. Not really my gig. About the only time you'll see me go ga ga over something that looks more then stock, is like Signal's S15 or JSpec's S13 coupe. *drool*

Stock looks own :)

BTW I like the looks of the S13, but the interior of the S14 calls me a little more intimately. That's why I'm converting to S14.

edit: Tho I wouldn't mind owning an S13 hatch as a beater car.

Of course we all know I wouldn't beat her just would be the non-raced version. :D

vengeance shut ur mouth. U don't need to redicule someone elses car. That's childish and stupid. You got somethin to say? COme over here and I'll shut your mouth for ya. Silvia fronts are expensive and there is not one piece of rice on his car. You must have never been to a real autocross if you've never seen a car with different rims on the front than the back. To recap, shut your mouth if all you're gonna do is ridicule someone elses stuff.
