i saw this black 1991 240sx coupe.. he sells it for 2300
from the pic he showed me (exterior only) it looks clean... so i drove there (killeen,tx) about 100 miles from where i am now(college station).. so i got there and look at the car...
it was dirty as hell... the front bumper has a huuge hole and the right side passenger door has a huuuuge dents (possibly hit by another car) the engine is great ( i test drove it ) but the interior is a mess... the dashboard has a crack.. no radio.. the seat has holes..(huge ones)
i almost buy that car but i dunno.. i just think that 2300 is a bit too much for a car with that condition..
sorry, i just have to vent guys... looking for a 240sx is a pain in the neck!!!

I searched for 3 moths before I found one I liked. With SCC having that article, I hear people talking about them all the time.......

You should have tried to talk him down to at least 2000. And you arent going to find many S13 that are in great condition either. Most S13's will have ripped seats, messy interior, and some dents. I have seen one S13 that was in great condition. It cost 5 grand. If youre looking for a 240 for 2000 dollars, youre probably going to get one with something wrong with it. Keep looking, and good luck.
