View Full Version : SO CLOSE
Ok, A week ago I found a 95 240 se for sale for about 4900 It had 111,300 miles. I call him up and ask for an appointment (appointments only don’t ask me y) so today my pops and me took a drive over to see the car. It was beautiful it had a 2 inch drop intake and exhaust. He gives me the key I turn on the car all you hard was the valves and the rollers. My pops popped open the hood for some reason I took off the oil cap and the compression dropped I was Like WTF. The dealer tells me that he never got the car inspected and that his partner bought the car and he was playing stupid like he didn’t know shit about cars he asked me what was wrong with the engine I told him that the engine was fucked. So I left disappointed, I wish I still lived in NY all I had to do was go to Hunts Point in The Bronx and pick a motor and trany for $500. By the way were I live there are no junk yards.

Somthing disapointing like that happend to me. But the one i wanted was this 1991 240 5spd, and i call them up, everything was good, one owner, black, and as he said fastback. The day my dad was going to go pick it up and look at it i told him "Make sure it is a fastback" and he called him again when i was at work and told me it was a coupe. My dad says the guy doesnt really even know what he has, it was some old guy and he thought it was a fastback becasue it was "Fast" and it has a spoiler, it pissed me off so much. he even showed the stock photo with a fastback, i hate those kind of ppl..

EONE914 man I use to love Hunts Point when I lived in NYC. Best street races in the world if you ask me. Plus you could find any parts for any cars you wanted at dirt cheap prices. An added bonus was the crackheads trying to score mcdonalds at 2 in the morning, the prostitutes trying to get tricks, and the dealers shooting up everything for no apparent reason. I miss NY.

One time i test drove a 1993 Geo Storm GSI. I like these cars bc i drove one b4 and it felt pretty sport. Well this car was pretty shitty. I got in to drive and i shut the door but the whole panel came instead of the door. The typical hurt car, hurt interior, Hammer wound on dash etc. I was like wow this car sux. Then i go to start from a Stop sign and the Car choked out with the Clutch to the Floor. Oh well i guess im glad i got my 240 even tho it took about 3 days to break down
I know what u mean wyldchyld7x hunts point and Zeraga Ave is the place to be especially on the weekends
