What's Another Car You'd Buy?

[lilvtboigotrice]

i don't think i would be able to part with my 240 unless i buy another one but the only car i would get otherwise in the future is a LanEvo 8 or an STi =)

[CybeRise]

for 8-10K i'd go with a 300ZX and if you can find one a Twin Turbo. 3000GT TT is cool also.

You can look for them on cars.com

[fullthrtl_tech]

for a rear wheel drive i would recomend a 300zx, AWD a 1st gen dsm, and if you have to get a fwd get a integra gsr. I drove my buddys and for wrong wheel drive i was impressed.

[base9se]

AE86 is what I would get.

[BadMojo]

I'd get one of the Subie 2.5RS with the hood scoop and wing (hey, I like the scoop!). As long as it's the 2.5L SOHC engine, it should be pretty reliable. I was looking to get one as a winter car, but they were just too much $$$. A decent one should be in your range if you can find one.

AFAIK, the DOHC engine in the 1998 model was the only one that had some issued (headgasket, I think).

Looooook....

[CybeRise]

I would never drive a scooby doo(suburu)

Tho the new WRX STI is nice :P

For a daily driver, I am planning on saving up and getting a certified Honda Accord and keeping it for 20 years. They aren't as powerful or exciting as the Altima, but they are tanks. I still kinda wish I had kept around the 83 Accord I had but I got a 91 Civic by giving it up (which I still drive today).

For a sports car, I plan on keeping the 240SX until it totally falls apart. In the meantime I would like to save up for one of these: http://www.uscaterham.com/home.html

Though I admit that the idea of a Porche 914 or a late 60's/early 70's Lotus Europa does sound good. All assuming I actually have alot of money

[CybeRise]

damn so many honda lovers on this forum these days, back in teh old days we'd have them hung :P

[PantherRacer]

I'd buy an Evo 4/5, mirage cyborg R, subaru wrx or a GTO, 300ZX .....

[nismofly]

barring the financial restrictions needed to build one, id like a 350z or porsche 997 to go road racing with

[CybeRise]

I think he said around 8-9K guys :P

[nismofly]

[sleepyRPS13]

some sort of hybrid car maybe a prius. i would love to have a 400hp hybrid.

[Project240]

Under 10K?? At this point I'd buy a low-mileage SC300. And YES, it would be an automatic because I am a lazy b|tch.

Now, for something more spirited...

-A1 or A2 VW GTI. Nothing later than mid-90s, too damn heavy.-88 Celica hatch (hey, I've got one already, check that out ), Gen3 3S-GE swap (180HP) + tweaks, MR2 transaxle, full suspension upgrade, weight stripping, black paint, light 15" wheels and go outrun some Type Rs.-MKIII Supra-S13 'vert

You suck!!! I was just getting excited to say SC300 cause there were like 20 posts and nobody said it yet. J/K guess great minds think alike.

If I were going to do something other than a 240, I would definitely get an SC300. Even with like 200k on them they are super reliable. The only thing to watch out for is the dash display.. those suck and cost a lot to repair.

Then, when you have money, if you want you can do a 1JZ or 2JZ conversion!!! The JZ's are second to only the RB series in my opinion.

Here's a good start. I bet you can get this one for under $10khttp://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...=6300

[PantherRacer]

oh under 10K? I'd buy either an Evo 1-5, mirage cyborg R, subaru wrx, mitsu GTO, 300ZX, 180sx, skyline GTS-4, GTS-25T type M,etc.....

[fullthrtl_tech]

by all means im not a honda lover at all. I respect the gsrs handeling for wrong wheel drive. For me i would just get another 240. Brand loyalty.NISSAN FOR LIFE

For under 10k I would stick with my old 91 Civic DX sedan. Anemic 4 91ci engine, stick shift, no luxuries at all. When I drive the 240SX for a week or so and then drive the Civic I feel like I am driving a tractor. However, the thing is just as reliable or more reliable than the 240. Just won't die.

But that is for a passionless daily driver. For something more spirited and fun under 10k, can't imagine driving anything other than a 240.

2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V.

When I get mine (240 going to be an SCCA Solo 2 car) it will look like this. Nismo everything. Hohoho. Yay for photoshop

80's Sports car love for me.MA70 NA or turboFC NA or TII

Give some love to the ancestors of the 240SXDatsun 240Z. Untouchable by smog regulations. Drop a nice turbo engine in there and bam, you're off.

[Bandit240]

Really and truely we don't need anymore cars but probably keep looking at Datsuns. Or I would look at early G20. Those seem appealing to me.
