What is the difference in a 1996 and 1998 240SX?

[MValley70]

Hey i am new to the 240SX and i was looking to get on to drive to college and around campus. I notice i little difference in the 96 and 98 240's. the tail lights and head lights are alittle different. Is there anything else that you could see to distinguish(sp) the 2? Maybe it is just me but is the 98 alittle more sporty? It looks like it is a little lower than the 96. Thanks!

the hood and the front bumper of the 98' 240sx is different from the 96'240 as well. If I was you I would get a 97' or 98' 240.

The 97's and 98's are usually about twice as much as the 95's and 96's. I see 'em all the time in the paper for 10 + grand. My suggestion would to buy a 95 or a 96 for 4 or 5 grand, buy the Strawberry Face from Daunttless for about 1200-1500 dollars, and spend the other 4 grand on an sr swap!!

i sugjest using the "search" button first. i mean its cool, but thats why that button is there. this is a 240 board, so you'll find your answer most likely....

[Daunttless]

Heh, S14 strawberry face is about 2250. : )

[Excedio]

is that price for all year 240's?

[Daunttless]

nope, S14s are 2250, S13s are 3000. : )

[Excedio]

figures the s13 would cost more :angryfire

Why bother with S15 conversion when you could put that money on some Altezza taillight conversion from an Integra or something. Would't that be cooler? I saw that greenish 240 with Integra lights and dual exhaust. That shiet was the best 240 that I have seen. Maybe not as cool as Daunt's S13 with bondo and "custom" intake.

Really? I got my S14 for $8700.....

Then again, I was the first guy to see the ad online, so.... : )

I got my 97 240sx SE for $6600 but had 97k. Mint condition, I would say flawless. Took me around 5-6 months to find it though.
