I have a 1991 Fastback LE, 5 speed, white, 167,000miles ( :( ), leather, sunroof. It is in really good conditon, recent tuneup, 500 miles on the new Bridgestone Potenzas. Only problems are a tear on the driver seat and a rusted spoiler.
New exhaust tubing and brake rotors/pads and a clutch too.

I paid $3000 at a ripoff dealer 2 years ago. What can I get for it?

EDIT- It's not for sale yet, so please don't move this, mods. The tranmission was fixed with new gear oil and the driveshaft is also good now.

well if the only problems are a tear in the seat and a rusted spoiler....that means no engine, tranny, suspension, brakes,etc. problems at all. and its an LE so put thta into consideration hmmm

that would bne very good condition which is rare fore a 13 year old 240....and its a FB...so thats a +......maybe like 1700?....a little less a little more...

hahaha, I like that. I found a red fastback for 1650....don't know why he added 50 to it, but hey, it's cheap. So just like No Motiv said $1700 is good. But take a chance and see if you could get atleast a little more.

For $200, I'll keep it ;)
All the problems are fixed. The driveshaft, reline gear oil, new exhaust tubing, and some other stuff. It has a bit of rust along the spoiler and a couple of tears on the drivers side leather.

If I can get $2000 from some bandwagon high school ricer, I'll do it, but for less than $2000, I guess it's worth keeping around....

funny thing

where i live these things are rare as hell

mines mint, showroom shape, babied not a single scratch, crack, dent, tear- all factory options with LSD leather etc..... all service records and its got 180 kms on it...thats a little over 100 miles i think... I paid $10,000 CAD for it which was a deal cause theyre still fetching more than that in great shape- one like mine is a rare find up this way- the only others ive seen all blow oil and are rotten...The nissan dealership loves me

This is true, over here in BC it's still crazy pricing for these S13's. 10 grand for a good condition decent kilometer car is about right.

Twitchy, I remember u saying u dont mind Stangs :p I just bought a 92 GT with a few things done to it, gimme a shout if u wanna see some pics, I'd like to see more of urs as well.

I'd guess 1500-2000 depending on its condition.. if you clean it up and get an eager beaver you might be able to sell in the high end, and if you sell it quick and dirty, 1000-1500

prices are ridiculous nowadays. If you wreck your car, your insurance will probably give you a grand for it. (s13) I got mine for 1200. Original owner too.

They're only up for the JDM mad tyte dorfito high school kids :) so sell it to one of them and your good to go.
Only thing really hurting you is the miles :( those ricer high school kids have parents who may not want something that high.
Other than that, sounds great, good luck selling or keeping it, hehe
...too bad your not closer to me :(

That's the plan. I have some inside connections too :x:
Too bad about your rust bucket. You should have no problem finding one with a blown engine. Most people would almost pay you have tow it from their lot!

*sigh* every year, the number of clean 240s dwindle. I don't have the money to yet, but when I do, I'm gonna hoard at least 5 of them.
