It's pretty sad you weren't able to see that.

"You can't explain that".

I paid about $5000 for a 91 black 240sx coupe, automatic in 2007 simply because it had zero rust, zero accidents, and super low milage.

I'm one of the few people that will pay more for a chassis that is in good shape. Its so much easier then to buy a rusted junker.

Remember, a car's value is only as much as you can sell it for. Like the guys selling expensive cars here, they only has to find that one buyer. So think about that before you trash someones FS thread. its not worth what you think it is, its worth what some retard will pay, and it only takes one retard to buy it... instead of trashing a thread, how about being glad a fellow nissan owner got some good money from some retard

cheers!

Who the fuck are you?

yeah, cause that makes you a cool guy. get that shit out of here. you expect people to kiss your ass because you volunteered to join the military? what does that have to do with your knowledge and history with s/z chassis. jeez, you were waiting for someone to call you out so you can throw that card out there huh?

Baiscally every single part on my car had under 10k miles on it besides the SR and trans which were from Japanland so 60k ish I assume. It was listed on here for 10k for a month. I dont know what you are talking about, there are tons of nice cars for 10k

Wow
I didnt think this thread could fail any harder.

Thanks for proving me wrong.

I agree, most 240s i see are overpriced and still seem to have something wrong with them

Wow, this is the most defensive whiny bitch opening post I've ever seen. Are you insecure or something? Something is seriously up with your attitude; you don't get respect on a forum by immediately putting its memberbase down.

You can't come in here throwing your weight around, and then complain about it when people call you out...

doomviillain · 11-22-2011, 02:42 AM

I've noticed a few overpriced 240's as well but what can be done about it?
There's clean s13's / s14's out there at a decent price, all it takes is searching and patience. Patience is actually the requirement.

No, I was pointing out that he's telling me to 'fuck off' and assuming I'm trying to get the last word instead of offering a different way to zilvians to look at fellow zilvians. Now; For some reason now you are involved? (this why I'm confused)

I talk to people here as if they were in the same room, and if someone has an expensive car for sale, all the power to them, if you are interested in buying, PM them with a counter offer, dont say 'holy drift tax yo' in the thread. I'd love to see someone from zilvia sell a car for a lot of money, all the power to the seller and buyer that is obviously happy with paying the outrageous price.

Its a mature way to barter.

DertyDan · 11-22-2011, 03:45 AM

no lol, that is another 19 year old that also shared his input. and i wasnt telling you to fuck off. infact, i wasnt telling anyone to fuck off. i was summing up all of the people bickering in this thread with what it sounds like to me. no need to be so serious dude sheesh get a sense of humor.

and before you go through all my posts trying to find something to make fun of me about, i do own a 240sx. i have a build thread for it on a local forum and this is my 5th one. i have made money selling every car ive owned to these retards you speak of.

I think you have the wrong end of the stick. I believe Derty Dan was summarising the views of ryandh with his cliffnotes.

Edit - Whoops, beaten to it by the man himself.

Walperstyle · 11-22-2011, 03:49 AM

ok, lets go out for some beers, i buy

There are no no opinions. Pay to play. If you think the pricing is wack, but the G/Z

jesse_s13 · 11-22-2011, 10:11 PM

Supply and demand son.
I got a good deal on my s14 but not everyone takes the time to look. Most are honda owners crossing over. So they will pay, good for the seller but bad for the buyers. But what can you do.
Keep looking and quit whining thanks

Walperstyle · 11-22-2011, 10:18 PM

If you think the price is wack.... PM COUNTER OFFER, dont post openly.

I've bought so much stuff on here, lots for good deals because I PM'd the people. Made it a little more personal, being I was actually interested.

Wake · 11-22-2011, 11:08 PM

All I know is for $10K I could build a fucking dope complete s14.

If you have the money and your so skilled, whats the issue?

- Buy someone elses project with a straight body and clean title.
- sell all usless parts off project.
- Rebuild to your own specs.
- get bitches (if thats what your into)

It is pretty clean, but if it had an Sr motor in it, It would've been a fair price.

n8RPS13 · 11-22-2011, 11:56 PM

Im with you bro! I have had 5 S13's since 01 and have never paid more than 2k, but most needed work or a engine swap. Just keep on the lookout is all you can do. The most recent one I bought for 1500 it was delivered to my house not running but came with a fresh ka24de and 5 speed tranny and all new leather seats front and rear as well as the doors, but was not installed. So point is yeah it was cheap but needed lots of work. I also searched my ass off for all my cars and was patient and didn't just jump on the first one. Good luck man!
