I have my eye on a different car so its time for my 240 to go. Want to trade for 2+0 Z32 300ZX or FC3S RX-7. Must be in equivalent condition... looking for something daily drivable, no wrecks, no rust, no leaks. Close to stock preferred. I'm located in College Station but frequently travel to Houston.

First, a little history on the car. I had been looking for a clean, unmolested S14 for about a year when I finally found this one being sold by a Zilvia member. We met in Dallas and I bought the car. I believe I am the 4th owner. All registration/inspection is up to date. It was very important to me to get a car in very good condition. The car has never been wrecked, has all original paint/panels, no rust, and has no mechanical problems. The pics speak for themselves.

When I got the car it was my intention to restore all the stuff that gets old on a 15 year old car to new condition. It has new rubber trunk stoppers from Nissan dealership, a fuel pump killswitch soldered and hidden, adjusted sagging driver's door, full detail, sanded and repainted peeling core support paint, replaced steering rack bushings, replaced valve cover/spark plug gaskets, etc. As you can see, I had big plans for the car but I'm selling it because I decided I want a 300ZX or RX-7.

Its a base model with hardtop and factory spoilerless trunk. Car is unfortunately automatic, but we all know that's an easy fix. Previous owner installed Viper alarm.

Minor annoyances:

-Key has to be tweaked back a millimeter after starting car for radio to work. Everything else works...
-Faded paint on top of rear bumper
-Minor dents/scratches
-Cracked radio trim - clean interior
-Power steering slight leak... not enough to lose fluid but its there -Small crack in windshield
-Exhaust heatshield sometimes rattles -Only 1 speaker works and radio squeals

The overall condition of the car is excellent. I just washed/clayed/waxed it and it looks new. Original paint, panels, etc... I have full maintenance records since I have owned the car.

PICS (this is the only pic I have on this computer... will get better ones up later) https://mail-attachment.googleusercontent.com/attachment?view=att&th=12a256b8de5a2e32&attid=0.5&disp=inline&safe=1&zw&saduie=AG9B_P_eVJG96HvSsWMe1po1OWwx&sadet=1329085576273&sads=m8SMyx-m4vdx5BZPZDFMbEP6FjE&sadssc=1
