[eastcoastS14]

if ur asking if the car is worth $4100 and is $3500 an acceptable offer id say no and no i wouldnt pay more than 2k for that car.....but then again it is the west coast

[Okinawa Drift]

[eastcoastS14]

also is it an original 5spd or a swap?

^^ haha i should start buyin 240s over here and shipping them to the west coast...theres at least 3 S13's near me for 1500 and under

[Okinawa Drift]

what is 3500 worth to you? 3500 can mean an sr swapped car for one person... or to another a rust free 100k of miles, manual car.

Keywords: Nissan, Nismo, 240sx, S13, Ae86, Corolla, Toyota, Silvia, ACURA, HONDA, acura, honda,

Freeway miles

hmmm.... I wouldn't believe much of the description unless I drove it/tested/inspected it myself...and those keywords... lordy bandwagon advertisement in hopes to rip someone off.

learn to make your own judgment...

ohh yeah nice gray square... cyber me all you want

[Okinawa Drift]

ROFLMAO! your right about the keywords, nismo.... acura, ae86... lol maybe just trying to sell fast? who knows..

lol no one would buy them because they would most likely be rusty. People on the west coast shy away from out of state cars,especially east coast cars.
Plus by the time you shipped them out here they would cost top dollar because shipping costs $700-900 just for shipping.

3500 seems way to much for 180,xxx miles

Are you like insecure beyond belief? Do you doubt every move you make. Do you feel you screw yourself better than other people can screw you?Or is it you just want everyone to tell you your the best and no one can beat the deals you get?
seriously you fail in life if you can't do anything without the above type of over self examination.

Dave: LOL! It's called "projecting"... and most people grow out of it shortly after puberty Hmmm.... LOL

Oki-Drift: as the only person to post (so far ) from the PacNW, I can tell you taht things 240sx related cost more in up here by I'd say 20% at least when it comes to finding a chassis.
Given that the description on craig's list is about as vague as vague can be, I'd definitely treat it as such. The car isn't worth squat til there's proof (your own inspection, or your mechanic's, upkeep paper trail, etc) of it's worth. When I got my first 240 in 2000, it' was a 91 LE, and I overpaid ($3500 for perfect mechanical cond., 3 smallish/med. dents, and 110k), it's 7 years later and depreciation follows. If it was in tip top shape, I wouldn't pay more than I did back then, especially with 180k on it.

Don't use socal prices as a benchmark, it's a totally different market. they will always be cheaper just becuase that's where the industry is, and where the main target market is, resulting in a higher general knowledge of 240's (and more savvy buyers and sellers).

haha, yeah im looking at buying another for $3500, but it seems pretty decent, it has no rust, s13 front conversion, 96 s14 KA24DE with 74k miles on it (came from an auto so not abused), he put the best fluids in it, and changed the fluids if not according to the factory specs, before.

The car has a new cap and rotor, new plugs, new clutch (about 3 miles on it so far, but I'm going to drive it to OR from Redding, so it will have just under 200 miles on it), new tranny fluid, new rear diff fluid, new brake fluid, new kyb gr2 struts in the front, Alpine Type R 6x9' speakers in the rear, and some other aftermarket speakers (forgot the brand) in the front, uncut stereo harness, but no radio. I also just recently steam cleaned the carpet (removed it to clean it), and will have the rest of the interior detailed and immaculate. The driver side seat is worn (what s13 isn't, lol), and there are a few blemishes on the dash (dropped it on some rocks when removed, but it will not crack, I took awesome care of it). Everything works in the car (every bulb and switch).
