Nope, I would never trade my baby in for a 300. Now if you offer me a 240Z in really good shape with the 3 2barrel carbs on the inline 6 thats a different story. It would probably be gone in a heart beat. But no matter what if I do trade it it will be for another Nissan. Working on my 4th Nissan now.

Poor, poor, wav,

You can't see the big picture. Any moron can buy a bigger engined, slightly less sexy car and kick some ass. It takes real imagination and individuality to buy a &quot;lesser&quot; car and over take the ones above it.

I guarantee if I took the money you would drop into a 300 (TT or N/A) and put it towards a 240, the 240 would be kicking some ass (appearance and performance).

But if you want to drive your uneducatedd HUSBANDS 300, which he purchased because some saleperson looking for more commission; then enjoy your ride.
</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>
Whatever dude. I love my 240 but let's be serious. You can pout all you want, but I think you know the facts, Jack.

Personally, I think 300ZXs are played out. &nbsp;They just don't have the sex appeal like the S14b. &nbsp;It may have a whole lot more HPs, but I'd like to look good in a car. &nbsp;Maybe if I hooked it up to look good then, yeah, but people do some ugly crap to their car nowadays! &nbsp;

I must say I produce the best looking cars out there! &nbsp;I'll post it up in here someday, a 95' Civic Coupe and a 95' Integra, but you guys might stone me, I'm just new here! &nbsp;You guys might be happy to hear that I crashed my Civic and just sold my Integra, so now I'm all 240 baby!

I do wish they made the 240sx with T tops. I've always wanted T tops.

That would be sexy.

A 240-T, I could get into on of those. &nbsp;Who knows, maybe one day down the road some over financed 240 (s13) lover will be displaying theirs at an import show.

240 T-Top (ad a turbo and you have a 240 TT). <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

If you want a 300Z bad enough there is a brand new one at the nissan dealership where I live. &nbsp;Its a 1998 but only has a 2,000miles on it and was never sold. &nbsp;It looks sad just sitting in the showroom where its been for 4 years.

That 300zx is probably in the showroom for the reasoning behind the name, SHOWroom. It probably is there to impress/bring people in, or it could have been one of the last north americain Z's made (they made them til 1999 in Japan) so they kept it as a collectable. It would be like putting a 240Z in the showroom, it's not for sale, it's there to show people nissan's past and conjure up good images of Nissan's in a possible buyer's eye's. Also who ever said the Supra looks better then a 300zx, I can't argue with personnal preference but who mentioned anything about a Supra? It's comparing a 300ZX and 240SX.

No the 300Z is for sale. &nbsp;I guess the brand new price tag on it scares people off. &nbsp;Oh well it looks nice and spotless. &nbsp;According to one of the salesman they just ordered to many and didnt sell it. &nbsp;I could have swore its a 1998.

I'm standing by my statement. May be a traitor, but I'd trade my 240sx for a 300z if I only had to foot the difference in insurance <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tounge.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':p'>
