some advice on gettin a celica Options

[DriftMotion]

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

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!
