heres my problem. i have a 95 240sx which i like very much for its looks, torque, uniqueness (not many out there), and 2 seater-ness(no more rides !!<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=';)'> BUT i am looking into getting a WRX.
i could get the WRX and slowly mod it...or i could keep the 240 and use some of the money i would spend on the WRX and mod it right away. first would be a sr20det swap BUT im worried about smog regulations in cali n etc....

what i would like to hear from you guys/girls are reasons why &nbsp;i should keep the 240. im having trouble deciding on it...cuz if it was up to me, i'd keep both, but...thats not going to happen soon. i do want to keep the 240 for several reasons: RWD, 2 seater, got it for $2k &nbsp;<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> and its pretty sexy.
on the other hand...WRX=AWD, factory turbo, 227hp, will smoke my friends TL-P, sedan (i miss "big" cars), and its brand new....

so please help me out guys!!!
thanks in advance!

If you've got the money to pay monthly car payments for the WRX. &nbsp;Get the WRX. &nbsp;If you feel like sticking around for the GReddy system that's "supposedly" being developed and messing with your engine, keep your car. &nbsp;BTW, GReddy's piggyback system sucks and it's prone to failure. &nbsp;You'd have to get one reprogrammed by Jim Wolf Technology.

In other words...

WRX = Fast, mucho space. damn car payments. You've got a warranty. Expensive parts.
240SX = Paid for, cheaper. &nbsp;Lots of monkey work to make it fast. Cheaper and more available parts. Older car.
