celica to 240sx? Options

[block]

damn i hate to say it but i think im selling my celica for a great deal, imo. my buddy is selling his rust free 240sx to me for 2K. im struggling financially with hospital bills and what not so if i can sell my celica for 4.5K then ill be good and spend 2K on the 240sx hatch. maybe i could trade it up for something nicer. hehe jk. but any thoughts? who has own a 240sx? and how did you like it? reliable? im not sure at this point but just want some opinions before doing it or whatever.

I loved my 240 but the cars are way too popular now. perticularly sr20det and rb25det swaps

that is a nice alltrac, at a pretty good price too. I've had my eye on that particular one for awhile now, but it's too far away haha.

Anyways, back on topic. I used to have a 240sx hatch and it handled very well. What year is the one your looking at? I sold mine so i could get a coupe, but ended up getting the Alltrac instead. $2k is ok, but my friends have been buying them up for around $1600 or less these days.

i dont want to deal with rust at all...i hate rust. so the alltrac is out of the picture. the 240sx doesn't have the looks but i wanna try something new. i wanted a coupe with the s13 or whatever headlights. it looks good. but a hatch would suit me well. i believe the one im getting is a 91. dohc or whatever. i dont know. but hey a no rust 240sx with totally rebuilt engine, you can't go wrong.

i had a 1990 240sx as my first car and i must say it handled A LOT better than a celica, stock to stock. a bit quicker too, and fun to drive. never really had too many problems with it.

haha we are 2 very different people here. for me i've owned a mr2 turbo and it doesn't handle as well as my celica. i drove my friend's 240sx stock and doesn't handle as well. i drove my inlaw's 240sx redtop sr20 and it was aight. that's why i gave up on my mr2 turbo and went back to my celica days. hehe but yeah right now, i want to try something new. then maybe later go on and import a real st205. i dont want to drive a fake fwd celica. hehe jk.
