QUOTE(Akimbo @ Jul 21, 2006 - 11:20 AM) [snapback]459112[/snapback] Both good cars. Despite what people are saying I find that all the 240SX's I've ever encountered are pretty solid rides. The only thing is the obvious details that can be okay with maintenance (seals, gaskets and easy stuff). But the same goes for the Celica. Great looks and Toyota reliability. A blast to drive. Good autox and roadcourse potential and great all around potential if you decide to give it a motor swap. But the same goes for the 240SX. I believe that if you are looking for a good daily driver, the Celica is the way to go. Performance can be had down the road. But if you have performance in mind at the start of buying your car, I would lean to the 240SX. An already RWD platform, with plenty of aftermarket goodies. And SR20DET's can be had for cheap. Good luck! thats wat im thinkin along the line about the s13, b/c SR swap is so cheap even if the engine dies out, not too much of a problem, but wont be doing that just yet, due to the smog thing in CA i drove one of the s13 hatch once, the ride is pretty um, dont know the word, but like u can almost feel all the bump, but im okay with that, funny thing is that car has a "turbo" sticker on the hatch but it have the stock KA24DE engine, lol havnt driven a celica yet, waiting for that to happen, busy weekend, so most likely postpone the test drive to next week, that is if i can find the seller, lol i want a car that gets me around places with some fun factor, thats y i think the RWD platform might be good choice S13 are way overpriced, and i dont think i can find a 6gc for 3000 with lower mileage and clean title still havnt make up my mind yet... |

thx for all the reply my family has been more of a toyota family, lol currently my dad has a Prius, and he is considering gettin a new car for my mom, Scion tC i know the good ol reliabilty of toyotas but as said b4, engine is pretty weak...prob i should do lil research on addin I/H/E, those simple bolt on stuff, see how much it gains and now my biggest concern is about the price, like i said b4, 3000 to spend...duno if the owner will even look at that, i mean, so far, all the ads i saw, i havnt seen any 6gc for sell around 3k, unless its either damaged, not running, or salvage title and i hope the insurance is not gonna b crazy for a 17 y.o like me i'll call the person 2molo, i dont know why the autotrader's email thing NEVER works for me, i emailed a few ppl never got response... now time for more research into the 6GC!! lol |

here is the situation, i found this 95 red celica with 164k selling for $3900 what im thinkin right now is i only have 3k to spend...and im leaning more toward the nissan 240sx and 164k is somewhat lil high to me i want the 240sx for its RWD i dont need a super fast car, just a hatch i can get around places and have some fun with it good thing about the car is that, the seller is like super close to me, i might go n check the car out later on, mayb next week or w/e, i just saw the ad 2day, so yeah... tell me why should i get the 6gc over the 240sx TIA  |

QUOTE(tin_foil @ May 2, 2006 - 11:00 AM) [snapback]429060[/snapback] Well, I bought it for $700. I, personally, am very happy with it. Considering its pretty hard to find a 6th gen for under 2K no matter what the condition. I now have a decent condition and great running Celica for $700...I'm down with that. OMFG thats a nice price now tell me where 2 find one, lol Edit: nvm i just read that its not runnin when u bought it...lol |
