[INFERNO s14]

There isn't one. It just brought my attention to the car in general, and I really like them. That is when i trolled the hell out of this place for more information until I finally joined to ask a question. I originally planed to do a kookie conversion, but I like the zenki face more now. and money could be better spent somewhere else.

[FinkenS14]

I wanted to move on from my FWD Supercharged grama car Monte Carlo Z34.



And because I wanted a light RWD car with endless aftermarket possibilities, hence, my first S14.

[skydragoness]

I've owned two S13's since 2002. I came to the decision on they were cheap (at the time), reliable, light, rwd, and fun to drive as well. Other choices I was considering were the MK3 Supra, Miata, and the T180/5th gen. Celica GT-S.

Now all the Civic ricers have 240's now (if they haven't wrapped them around trees already) and I loathe being categorized with the same people. But I'll never sell my car, took to long to get it where it stands. Hopefully another trend will take the 240's place.

[mentordrift]

I used to have a 2000 Chevy Cavalier, and wanted something with...a bit more power. Now I have an rb25 swapped zenki.

I think I solved my problem sufficiently.

[matt_240sx]

I saw it on need for speed. LOL it was the car I used the most. Then one day there was one at my stepdads garage. I asked if they were going to sell it. The original owner (a police officer lol) was selling it for 500 bucks. So I had to get it....

And everybody has a Honda. I wanted to be different. So far I have only seen four 240's around where I live

[killercoupe]

i got my 91 coupe because it was 300 bucks rear wheel drive and look f'ing amazing when built!!!!!!!!!

[ScrapMetal]

Now all the Civic ricers have 240's now (if they haven't wrapped them around trees already) and I loathe being categorized with the same people.

I feel the same way.

I was originally going to buy an 84 Mustang GT for $1,000, but the very same day I came up to the guy with the cash in hand he had finished selling it. The very next day, a guy who lived down my block was selling an 89 240sx for $1,000. Car looked good and I decided to buy it. This was back in 2003, when kids were still balls deep in Honda Civics. I sold my 89 two years later because I needed the money, but a year after selling it I started to miss it so much and I decided to buy another S13. Luckily, I didn't get hit by the drift tax with my 91 because the car was originally going to be sent to the junkyard and I offered the guy $500 and that I'd get it out of his backyard. I feel like I have given a second chance at life to my 91, I can never sell this car.

[hazukijitsu]

I fell in love with the carpet textured seats and door panels on the s13!!

Jk!

My brother gave me my 240sx! He said he got a good deal on it and gave it to me. At first I wasnt really into it and just wanted any type of daily driver to get to school and work. Then the car started to have problems so I went online to find help fixing the problems, and then TAH_DAH; Nico caught my attention and I love the 240 ever since!!!!

[ocalas240]

i ended up getting a civic when i turned 16 because it was cheap and **** was everywhere for them. one day i was driving, just kinda cruising. and outta no where this beautiful 240 hatch pulled right up past me, this gorgeous dark red slammed masterpiece. thats pretty much when i decided i wanted a 240.

and whats not to love? cheap, RWD, and fast

[PHeller]

I wanted a 240 because I thought just because the engines are bulletproof, the rest of the car must be as well.

I didn't think I'd have 80 annoying little problems that although don't effect getting from point A to B, my Escort was a nicer daily driver.

I wanted something fun, rwd, with a good aftermarket and cheap parts.

[noobdrftr]

well i wanted one since i was 16 never got one for some reason....i have always loved the style of them and the fact it was rwd and light. Finally got mine at 21 for free (its got a bit of rust but ehhh it was free)

[smurf13]

because i thought it was a ford probe

[RCA]

RWD Civic

RWD > FWD

[myS13wantsaVQ35]

i always liked the look of the car.

[cavepiggy623]

theyre superbad$$

[valves]

is better than a civic in every way

[thematz]

A lighter, cheaper, 350z. 12k for a stock Z or put 12k into a 240?

[placham]

why did you buy the 240SX over everything else on the road?

i bought mine because its cheap, RWD, and better then a civic.

Because 240sx are like the best cars ever I think they were created by GOD him self GOD created Adam>Eve>240sx

[white90esex]

I bought one cause they are really popular and I wanna fit in by having a beat up **** car that I claim to drift in.

[White Comet]

Because 240sx are like the best cars ever

you ARE joking right?

[myS13wantsaVQ35]

Because the 1988 fiero Gt was sold by the time I got back to the used car lot!

[vangj]

Cars I've been through in order:

'90 240sx fastback with full body kit and SR'94 Integra GS-RGot the '90 240sx back in a trade for the GS-R'03 Nissan Frontier'00 Integra Type-R'94 Honda Accord EX'03 Mazdaspeed Protege'97 240sx SE

After all the cars that I went through, nothing really was as fun as my 240. I've always been into 240's, so this time I went with the '97 240sx. I bought mine with 85k miles on it for $8k this past summer.

[Chris28]

I wanted a car that didn't work more often than worked and have that still be considered normal.

[sjbsuperman1425]

i dont even know. i used to be into civics, i dont remember when i started liking the 240. my friend and i would walk down at this park by his house and talk about what we were going to do when we got one, and sure enough, 2 years later, we both had one but did COMPLETELY different things that what we originaly wanted to do lol. I LOVE my car, i'd **** can my g/f in a heartbeat for it
