Hey,
I've been looking around for a while to buy another 240, I haven't owned one since 07. My neighbor happens to be selling a 92 base model 5spsd hatch.
It has about 200k miles and runs good when on. But it has a starting issues. Need a jump every time. I was told that engine timing is fine and it has a new distributer. I'm thinking it has bad grounds etc. The car it's self is in ok shape, some big scraps and paint peeling but it's completely unmodified. You think it's worth $500

$500 for a running 240 that isn't a complete rust bucket is a good buy. What are your plans with it?

For $500 I would buy it then flip it to a fan boy for $3k. Drift tax baby

But I would buy if I was in your position, $500 is nothing these days

I picked it up today and literally rolled it from one driveway to another down the street. It has a lot of new parts like a distributer etc. but it's not getting spark. It's gonna take a little bit fix but I got time
