Older folks got love for Nissan too!

[whateverjames]

i got an email from another lady who had a white 240SX about a year ago.
here is one i got yesterday. oh ya, ma'am, if you're reading this, i'm not makin fun of you. it's just kinda.. cool.


James, what a marvelous thing E-mail is...just got it myself last March. I'm
53 years old. Bought a '90 240SX new...12 years ago...she's midnight pearl
blue. (or something like that - can't remember the exact shade without
pulling the paperwork out of the file).
At any rate, I have held onto this baby blue thing for all these years.
Drove her 2 winters before I realized she would never make it up my driveway
after work and a 12" snowfall (lake effect off Lake Ontario, Rochester, NY).
So, have garaged her the past 10 years and only take her out in the summer
months. Am so terribly fond of her - never dreamed that there were any
websites of 240SX owners until a co-worker, who has a '76 MG said he looked
on-line and found one for his car.... So.......punched in 240sx nissan into
Google and came up with your site and others.
Just had to send a note - Love your site - sort of a rush (well, I'm older,
remember?) seeing cars JUST LIKE MINE!!!!!!! to view...
My baby blue is near mint as far as interior and body, haven't upgraded
any suspension, whatever....she's original. Just recently had a rust spot
removed and rebuilt...and she has 60,000 miles and rests in the garage in
the winter. We have a 'Parkway' that parallels the S. shore of Lake Ontario
here. I like to take her out and blow out the cobwebs (at 80 mph, that's
all) once in a while. I know you guys are all so young.....but, just
wanted to write you a note to say that I am really attached to this car.
Signed,

the cliff notes:

Older lady bought a 240SX 12 years ago
drove it through two harsh winters, then garaged most of the time.
she has the same love for her car like we do, and she didn't realize so many other people did too until she found the world famous 240sx.whateverjames.com (shameless plug?)
she likes to take it out and run it hard. you know, to bring back the feeling the 240SX can give you.
and rochester, ny winters suck. (well, she didn't say that, but it's pretty obvious&#33<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=''>
