Well guys I need a little help. I guess buying a car thats already fixed up and nothing really to do spectacular under the hood has finally taken it's toll. I've only had it for 4 months but I just don't know...what about a 240 with a turbo engine...would that be dumb. Help me out!

Keep it if it's the way you want it. If it's not exactly what you want then make it more your style. If you really want a totally differant car then go that way.

Just go with your gut!

I say if you're bored with it....lose it.

finding a new toy is the easy part, it's letting go of the old ones.

Z > 240

If you don't like its style, which I can't really argue with you on some of the stuff that's done to your Z, just change it and make it your style.

I'm don't mean to look down on my car, but I wish I had a Z. V6(TT), 4 piston calipers up front, aluminum suspension...I'm actually jealous of Z's. If I were you, I'd redo the car. However, turbo 240SXs are awesome.

I think he was more lamenting on the fact that it was a 2+2, which happen to be undesirable for some reason (longer wheelbase, more weight perhaps?)

If it's TT, wtf, keep and change it to your liking. It's not a finished car unless you say it is.

dood, it your car, you have to make the decision. you are the one that has to drive it and see it everyday, our opinions dont really matter. i dont know what you want out of a car, figure out that and then figure out which car has the best potential to give you that. just my opinion

I have a 3 year old! I think it would be a little illegal to put her in the trunk.

240's have "back seats" aswell, probably about the size of your Z's. Not exactly suitable for any non-midget/elementary student, but handy for munchkin transport and as the multi-purpose, patent-pending, Padded Shelf.

Well I think I might keep it for a few months, after winter is over. But after that who knows. I definately will not get one that you really can't do anything to it's kinda boring that way.
