What does it take to get 18k or more for a swap 240sx!!! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

IMO it's like buying a brand new car, as soon as you drive it off the lot it depreciates %10 or more. Just for instance, I know it's not down to a science like this, as soon as you buy those $1200 coilovers and install them you can get about another $800 for the car. Like said in some of these other posts, 240s are not collectibles and probably never will be compared to mk4 supras, fds, nsx's, etc. which were produced in lower numbers and designed to be "race cars".

I dont agree with you completely. IMO Kouki's are collectibles. Maybe not recognized by everyone but We all know they are hard to come by, and were produced in limited quantities.
