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!

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...
