Best place to shop for a 240sx in the SF Bay Area? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Im gonna apologize right off the bat if this thread is in the wrong place.

I dont own a 240sx (yet) but im hoping to be able to buy one within the next 2-3 months.
Im not looking to heavily mod it, just want a "stock" s13 so i can use it for commuting.

Anyways whats a good place besides Craigslist (total crapshoot 99% of the time), and this site (ill be monitoring the For Sale sections) that i can use to increase my chances of finding a 240sx?

My budget is kinda tight (3k) but im not afraid to do some bodywork and minor repairs over time.
Seriously CL hurts my body with all the Salvaged beat to all shit exdrift missiles going for 4k so i figured id come here and ask the locals for help.

Look around locally or keep your eyes open in other counties like sac or other cities like socal. You'll be lucky to see one every other month or something that isn't a complete crock of shit

I drove to la for mine. If you don't have any need for a 240 as a project don't bother getting one. They're really nothing special to warrant sitting in traffic with one. Unless you want twenty something dudes on your jock in rush hour.

Definitely agree with you. There are better cars for the amount of money a 240 goes for today.
