240s were so plentiful and cheap a few years back
>>15356663
You should know about takumi tax by now
>>15356663
SO MUCH THIS
bloody weebs started to believe their shitboxes are actually worth something and are jaking up the prices so high its ridiculous, for the price of a rotted NA/NB I can buy now a decent 230 Kompressor SLK or CLK
>>15356668
Nah, 2003 was when the drift craze was starting stateside and 240 were being sought after. 2008 is when I'd say the peak hit and stock 240s were getting rare. 2012 brought the stance scene and a second wave of demand for 240s putting clean stock cars at unicorn status.
So if you don't want a drift slut I recommend looking at SC300/400s or FC RX-7s.
I found a 240sx on craigslist for $1500 the only problem is that its in a ghetto area heres the ad

What did you expect? Start looking for thrashed shit tier drifters if you want cheap.
>>15356784
>auto
what do you want one for?
>>15356835
i want it as daily driver
>>15356829
I'm willing to bet that it would be an extra 2k if it were a manual
>>15356850
>i want it as daily driver
And why specifically a 240sx? Just because of looks?
That being said you can definitely pick up a super cheap auto convertible since most of the convertibles are auto
If you can deal with it being a convertible (which shouldn't really bother you as a dd) you can still manual swap it for around 400-500 and if you want to do a complete motor swap since it'd probably have a ka24 you can pretty much do them at the same time
Good luck hunting but honestly you should probably settle for something else

>I'm willing to bet that it would be an extra 2k if it were a manual
yea obviously, the only reason why anyone would consider buying a japbox like this one is because of the classic drive train; longitudinal engine, manual gearbox, drive to the back. having an auto completely ruins the sense of owning one since they are not even nice or cool

You're 6 different kinds of retarded for buying a car with no title, despite the fucking outcome.

That bumper really has to go.
>>15357958
Yeah I feel the same way, it is soon
it's the same everywhere. I'm hoping someone will post one at a reasonable price in my area or i'll just end up getting an sc400
People that are trying to sell s13s for over 5k are stupid and out of touch. Pristine imported s13s can be had for 8-10k.
