Hey everyone I've looking around for a 240SX (no luck) and everyone wants a crazy amount for them ($3000 CDN w/250,XXX). Anyways to the point I came across a 200SX SE-R. $1700 and 250,XXX also, exterior looks to be ok. Took a peak inside and seems to be clean. Didn't look under the hood or under carriage. Just wanted to know if its worth $1700 seeing it will be a project car.

What year? Rust?

250,000 is a lot of miles regardless of what car. I'd try to knock it down a few hundred at least, but if you can do that I'd go for it. Well, I actually don't know the Canadian exchange. I'd venture to say that it should be no more than $1200ish US, $1500 US if it's rust-free and runs like a champ.

its a 1995. The exterior looks to be ok. I want to take a look under the hood to make sure theres no rust there and also at the under carriage if it possible. Anything over $1000 seems like much for a project car....then again it runs so....anyways thanks for your help.

yeah the problem is most people know that a 240Sx is a pretty popular ride and will charge more than they are worth now adays.

No, different chassis, different drivetrain.

Talk this seller down, I bet you could get a good bit hacked off of that price.
