Man, sounds like me except you've had faster cars >_>

Anyway I had a '97 custom silver paint with coilovers, nothing special. Totalled it while I fell asleep on the freeway (I know, I know) Sold it for $2,000 without rims and the whole front end was screwed and had a bent frame. Luckily my nismo LM GT4 rims were ok.

Went on to go buy an '01 S2000, didn't really mod it except exhaust. Everything was just too expensive for the car. Especially insurance (400+ a month, it sucks being 18) So I sold that car and I missed the fun I used to have from my old 240SX and recently bought another.

Present day I own a '98 pearl white 240SX and have had it for a couple months now, no regrets.

Pics

(this was when I just bought the car and it came with those ugly black rims and smoked tail lights, yuck!)

No current pics of my 240SX now, but it's nothing special just LM GT4 rims off of my previous car.

Before you guys flame me for being 18 and having my 3rd car one of which being a S2000, in my defense I bought all of these cars with my own money.

from the disperse of a will...

naw jk..

haha

I have never really driven a car for the money that will hold up to my standards for a FUN car to tinker with. I like the way the s13 feels like a go kart on cocaine with rocks for suspension and I love not knowing if the car is going to overseer or under steer and kill me with 400hp at my back etc.

its great.

Everything else is just civilized and for the most part slow or heavy /$ for my liking.

I remember a couple people going sc300 and selling the within a year to ogo back to s13 coupes for track cars.

Its personal preference I guess. Ive been doing 240s for 6+ years and nothing fits quite like it now.

if I could afford to tinker/tune/beef up Z06 last model not the most recent that would be a nice little preference.

Id like to try a skyline some day (maybe the new one)
