 I went to drift fest this weekend and saw a bunch of 240s and it made me realize how sexy they are - especially in black! I want one so bad - not to drift but as a daily driver so I came home telling my dad I was really considering it but he said I cant because he doesnt have the money to build the 240 he would want to for me :-( I cant sell the celica without their permission because it is in their name. I wish I knew about imports before i got the celica. I think I would have waited out for a black 96 240sx. Im happy with my celica but wow 240s are so sexy. Im on the nissan board more than im on here now. Which im sure soem of u will be happy to hear

trader!!! your Celica feels unloved with all this talk of other cars.
Looks like I'm done with Celica's too though, mines getting totalled most likely.

I've been on the dark side, i'm like an automotive pimp, got a Celica, '99 Mustang GT, '99 Dodge Ram, '02 Lancer OZ (also have access to a Chevelle) that I drive often and just got rid of a '96 Talon TSi, '99 F-150, '96 Sierra, and '91 Mustang, i'm considering a 240 for a beater or another TSi but every time I find a good deal on one I don't have the money.
BTW you would think as much crap as I talk about Fords and Dodges I wouldn't get within 10' of one, well now you know my reason for hating them the Dodge is in the shop once a month for tranny or oil system problems and the Mustang handles like a retard on roller skates and the gas mileage sucks on both.

[right][snapback]295521[/snapback][/right] That goes for a lot of things. Look at Hugh Grant.

They bought the car for me for an early bday/graduation gift ( a year early to be exact) so its under their name...and he builds it cuz thats what my dad does - builds cars :-) plus he helps pay for it more if he does it! and then it becomes a beast and it gets done right

The lure of the dark side has temped me too. Ive lusted over a 240, as well as 300zx, SC300, 3000gt, and 2.5rs. Currently every G35 turns my head, but thats a bit more than i can afford. But i have resisted the call of the dark side by making a deal with myself. Im going to hold on to my car until 2007, ten years since i got her and then i can think of getting a new car. But nothing before then.
