who have to keep kidding me?? ebay find

[aKa_KaZa]

im just trying to point out, when i think of rare... i dont think of 240s

now if you find a completely stock one that is really rare

because no one buys them to have a stock car

think about in 30 years.... you wont find anything worth having thats not eith totally built up or trashed beyond repair.

ive realized that. i know my car is not going to appreciate in value like the classic cars have. its just a different generation of cars and enthusiasts i guess.

You mean like this one?

Your some what right...

It now looks like this...Ive changed tail lights, Wheels, and front turn signals... Other then that its all stock and has 27,500 actual miles on it...Ive kept all the stock parts didn't change out the hubs and put 5 lug on it... kept it with 4 lugs... Still have the original Rims and tires here stored in my house still aired up last time I checked... Still have all the original lights...I did replace the door speakers with kickers and put in a 12 inch kicker sub in the back just enough to make it sound good but not rattle the car to pieces...

and as Far as I'm Concerned it will be in the same shape it is today (with a few more miles on it of course) 30 years from now... I don't want to sell it... But if your really interested I will part with it for $25,000 USD you can yell fan boy or not rare or what ever you want, I've looked since I have bought this one and I have yet to find another one in the same shape and miles... I love it just like it is Chrome wheels and all, because its different... Really im just waiting the 30 years to then put it on barret jackson and walk away with a nice retirement boost!

Edit: If your wondering I put the 500 miles on it this last year it was drove to 4 car shows and I done some cruising, its setting in my garage right now... Its not my daily driver that would be the Red Nismo Frontier you see in the back ground of the last pic, eventually im going to get a boxed car trailer and make a trailer queen out of it, I'm looking to preserve the history of the Convertible 240SX because so many soldiers have already fallen to the drift scene... lol

HAHAHAHA Jim carrey's good days!

Dayum dem chrome wheelz iz bling! wow this thread is so full of rice it makes me hungry.

[aKa_KaZa]

Not always just where I see fit... Its like this if I can get $25,000 out of it by posting on the net for someone that really wants a nice piece of Nissan history then so be it...

To be honest I don't want to sell it... the reason I offer is because I'm in my last year of college, I want to pay off that Nismo Frontier pictured, and use the rest to buy a house and get a start... So I would be willing to sell the car to get an extra jump on my life, but I know what i have and im not going to fool it away... I can make it just fine and keep the car, but to speed things up a bit I would be willing to sell it...

I know I saw that and I thought he posted wrong pics, I send him a message asking him: where is the silvia in all this Abomination of an S13.....he never replied

[Logan76]

The ladies love them? I've never met any women who gave two ****s about chrome wheels, let alone cars in general, none of my 240's got me any ***, my freinds with 500+hp STI's, Evo's and a 600hp mustang, none of their cars got them any ***, but your stock chrome wheeled vert gets you ladies?! please share your secrets man.

I didn't say it gets me **** Just when you get compliments on them from ladies it does make a difference, I don't like the black wheel racer style wheels like on the car above I think they are fugly, Actually a lot of Muscle car guys have given me compliments on my wheels, one guy in a newer Firebird wanted to know where i got them..., everyone (in real life) loves my wheels, because they are different, you usually don't see chrome like that on a 240. (Its you Fanbois and Drifters on the internet that i have gotten flack from but see it really doesn't matter because your opinion doesn't really matter in the end anyway, I'm not trying to be a Drifter, If I wanted to be a drifter and put black racing wheels on a car I would and be just like everyone else on the block with a 240SX) A lot of the Muscle car guys actually respect me more then what respect I have seen them give to a lot of these modded out rice rides, I guess I'm trying to bridge the gap and make a 240SX a classic ride, the wheels are just to make peoples heads turn and they do that just fine...

[Logan76]

Hah, I am by no means a Fanboi, Its your car, dont let my biased opinion change how you feel about your car, but I am by rights allowed to voice my opinion and I liked it better with stock wheels.

1 Are you serious calling this a silvia? it has a 180sx front end.2 there is no way that you can sell that for more than 3 grand.3 if you wanna sell this for 2 grand and take all your crap out of it, ill take it. take all your wire loom and seats and nasty stuff out.4 people like you should be hung by your speical parts for doing this to such a rare car!

thought it was funny!![/quote]1 This is not. in any way a 180SX front end. its a **** looking aftermarket front bumper with a **** paintjob to boot.

yes, it has pop-up lights like the 180SX's do. if that was your point then you failed at communicating that.

2 There were over 27,000 240SX's sold in 92' in America, this one is automatic and has 187,000 miles. not rare.

3 aKa_KaZa: if you think that a car originally sold for $14,000-$18,000 is worth $25k today, your insane. The car is clean as hell but not worth that much.

4 The car is ugly. but at least give him some props for trying, its clean and he did 1 or 2 things right on it.

yep Opinions are like bungholes everyone's got one and most peoples stink...I still have the stock wheels, they aren't going anywhere in fact one of the reasons I made the switch was to get the stock ones off the ride so I wouldn't have to worry about bending one or rubbing the sidewalk with one...

There was one Huge reason I chose these wheels over a lot of other wheels, its because it has a center cap cover... I despise having universal wheels and showing off empty holes, if you look at 90% of wheels that fit this car (4) lug they are 8 lug universals that show empty holes, this is an 8 lug universal but the holes are nicely covered so they don't stick out like a sore thumb... I also didn't want to change the hubs to stick 5 lug wheels on it either, I can understand the advantage of having one more lug for drifting but its pointless and a waste in money and kills the original-ness in a pretty much show only car... You can hate them or love them, they are staying on the car as long as I own it...

To set you straight there Junior...for your #2... There were only 8,320 CONVERTIBLES made EVER... so that kills your origional number of 27,000 240SX made in 1992, just face it the Convertible 240SX is a rare car... in fact most people tell me when they see mine at shows they didn't even know they made one.....

on your #3... the 240SX CONVERTIBLE Sold for about $22,000 back when it was new... the hatches and coupes sold for your $14,000-18,000 again get your facts right... A little bit of history lesson for you... The 1969 camaros sold for about $4,000 with all options... now to buy one in top shape you will pay near $25,000+ or $50,000+ with one with all matching numbers and stock... and they made a HELL of a lot more of them then they did the 240SX vert...Also you might think im crazy and my car is not worth it, I challenge you to find another one in the same shape and mileage, you won't... so I figure the car is worth pretty much what I can get out of it and I'm not parting with it for less then $25,000, so if you want it that's what you'll pay... If not Ill be happy to keep it....

Also on a Side note ALL CONVERTIBLES Were AUTOMATIC... if you see a vert with a 5 speed in it someone swapped it out thus making it not original...

don't call me junior i'm not your ****ing son.

They're a little less rare than a GVR4, good for you. I never said there were 27,000 verts. i know the production numbers, READ before you reply. 1992: 27,033 TOTAL cars / 2,327 verts

"your origional number"

Original* douche

I was stating my opinion on the 1 statement geared towards you.

If you want to sell your car for 25K and some retard wants to pay that price then by all means, Do it.

A 240SX is not, NOT a 69 Camaro. These cars will not appreciate in value for a very long time. They still produce parts for the cars, They aren't classic cars yet, and there is not a big demand for the cars.

[hbpignosePA]

dude dont try arguin with these vert guys they know their stuff yo....

to the guy with the chrome wheels

i highly doubt the "ladies love them" unless you consider your car worthly of a gansta rap video. in which case you shouldve went with 20z and some hydraulics

just when i thought this thread couldn't fail any more

it does

The way your original post read you made this car look like 27,000 of them were made in 1992 and that since this one was an automatic it was in your own words "not rare".

I explained the fact that there was not 27,000 of these cars made because as much as you would like to group it into the same category as coupes and hatches its a totally different car the top drops thus making it a convertible

And to put things in a little bit of perspective for you in the 70s-and 80's the 1969 Camaro wasn't as expensive as they are now... What the Camaro did was have a following of people whom prided themselves in owning a Camaro... Ok lets flip this to Today's times, the 240SX is no longer in production, last production year was 1994 for the S13 and 1998 for the S14 and the S15 Chassis Silvia was last produced in 2002 thus ending the S life... Let me ask you one question If they still make parts for these cars I have a whole list of CONVERTIBLE parts that I would love to have extra's of, Could you pick them up for me? trust me you just can't go to the dealer and ask for a part, ebay you can find some that people have either ripped out of other cars or found in an old Nissan warehouse they don't still make the Convertible parts... Fenders, hoods, and trunk lids yeah you can find those because the aftermarket of those items warrants companies to make them because they also work on the hatches and coupes thats about the extent of most original parts being found... But last time I checked you can still get Camaro Fenders and Hoods from an aftermarket source... Humm these to arn't so different after all...

On that same token of "Hey your not so different after all..." The 240Sx has a following of people whom pride themselves in owning a 240SX... Thus in 30 years could the 240SX have the same following as the 1960's model camaro has today??? Its very much possible, because 30 years from now when the lot of the 240's have been crashed and burned someone will be saying you know how much fun I used to have in my 240SX I wish I could find another one... and with that the prices raise because other people wish they could find another one... and Simple Supply and Demand takes over... Thats why the Camaros got to where they are people had them when they were young and had fun in them, and when they started to get where people wanted to experience the Camaro feeling all over again later in life it caused the price to raise... But their is 1 huge difference between the Camaro and the 240SX Chevy is planning a 5th Gen to go into production in 2010 thus you will again be able to buy a brand new Camaro and drive it off the lot... What year is the next Gen 240 coming out? oh that's right they don't make them anymore....

[aKa_KaZa]

to the guy with the chrome wheels

i highly doubt the "ladies love them" unless you consider your car worthly of a gansta rap video. in which case you shouldve went with 20z and some hydraulics

Maybe I was trying to broaden my appeal, and reach past the 240SX fanbois, and yes if a rapper wants to use my car in his Video and my car gets TV time because I put some chrome rims on it, then by all means I would be up for it, heck if they wanted me to throw down 16 bars while they were producing the video I would be up for that too... I'm not close minded, I do like Rap music, and I like to appeal to a wide variety of people with my car and I really don't care about the opinion of you internet Trolls.....

Go work on your car its far more productive then Trolling around the internet and making pop shots at people...

[Ghast]

So much fighting and name calling.

Not needed, not needed at all.

Some of you are embarrassing yourselves, not that you should care to much on the internet, tho embarrassment none the less.

Before you keep fighting ask yourself "what does it matter?" "Who actually cares?"

At least debate like you respect one another, not like fools fighting over a banana.

One Love,

Ghasty

There's Is So Much Wrong In That Stament It's Painfull.

I Bought My 240sx To Enjoy It Crisp Handing And Endless Tinkering.

Not To Hold It For 100 Years Then Sell It.

Stock Market <---------- That Way!

Edit: Another Thing, People How Do Buy +50k Camaros Don't Around Buying It Just Put 22'z On It.

They Buy Them Cause It Was The "Z0mG R34 GTR" Of Its Time. Now That They Have Money They're Willing Spend It. Aka" Baby Boomers" Go Read A Book.

And If MTV Asks For My 70's Camaro For A Video I Would Say STFU And GTFO. They've Runined Enough Classics With Their Candy Paint And DuBzsZsZsz.

If you don't consider a collectors car an investment then I don't know what to say to you... the stock market is down I chose to invest in something that will grow in value with out a whole lot of risk, see if all else fails I still have the car and people do put 22's on camaros just the ones you see rolling across barret jackson bringing top dollar are all original, thus that's why I kept my stock wheels....

See what you don't understand is I did a little test with this car... I showed it the first year I got it *Edit: completely stock* and pulled 4 trophies out of 5 shows, 1 was a members only show that I didn't get a trophy for but I showed up anyway... This year at one of those same shows with the wheels and lights and sound system done I pulled a best of show at one of the same shows I was at last year stock... The results speak for themselves, you might not like chrome wheels but the judges of the show sure thought they made a difference... The proof is in the pudding, top 25 Stock to Best in show with the light, changable modifications... You can't really argue with the results they speak for themselves....

This Explain A LOT...

[hbpignosePA]

so a 240sx is a collector car now?

christ its not even a classic.

it was not popular when it was first introduced.. actually it sold pretty poorly compared to other cars of the era, reguardless of class

those cars that go for big bucks at the auction are cars people want... muscle cars, old foreign stuff.

not a entry level compact nissan produced in the 90s.

If im not mistaken the Camaros and Impalas, and Chevelles were Pretty much chevy's entry level car's the Corvette was the higher class sport car from Chevy and a little FYI things like the Sentra and Stanza were Nissan's entry level cars, the 240SX didn't sale extremely well because the idea it was a poor mans sports car people whom wanted more performance opted for the 300ZX...

[hbpignosePA]

still the people who can afford auction cars want the big V8s and power cars.. sure the impalas might be entry level, but they American classics that aren't butchered to death by cultish teens.

the 240 is a cult classic car

not many older people look at the car with admiration, especially with the bad rep we get from people like the original post (nasty vert)

[Logan76]

The 240sx was an entry level commuter car designed for your average middled aged woman, theres nothing sporty about a stock 240.
