I've had my current 240 for about 3 weeks now. BUT I get the impression you're talking about owning then selling.

I had a '99 Prelude for 3 months, totaled it.I had a '95 MX-6 for 2 weeks, sold it for a 200% profit.

I've only owned one 240, my current S14. I won't ever sell it unless I have to.

I had my first S13 for over a year, then a wreck. I got a new S13 a few months later, and I almost wrecked it the day after I brought it home. Some idiot 2 cars in front decided to slam on their breaks to make a turn right over the top of a hill. I was distracted for .5 seconds right as all this happened, so I looked up to stopped cars going about 40. Swerved onto grassy shoulder with locked brakes and missed other cars by about 3 feet. I woulda been so pissed. I babied that car for months after that.

i had a 1988 Audi 90 quattro for about 10 hours before the transmission went out on me.

It was my brothers car but it was un driveable untill we got the CV joints replaced and a brake caliper.

I drove it to school and back, but then when i tried to leave that night it left me stranded at 10:00pm on a country road.

It [QUOTE=mikehonda]what year is that 240 black in the pic here how much did u get for it cannot find them like that in jersey[/QUOTE

It was a 91. I bought the chassis for for 1k. I striped the interior, pressure washed the interior, pressure washed inside the car with out the interior, let it marinate in the sun for 2 days. Installed a a rb20, and some goodies. Cleaned and waxed the car, and two weeks worth of work + 2900$ including the chassis, I sold the car for 6k in cash despite having it on ebay 3days left and being at 6700 already. I needed the money asap but 3k profit in cash is not bad either. SnailWorks does the cleanest cars or swaps in the nation, let me know if you need a car or swap.
