Yeah kbb value, but with inflation and the demand of the car, the price is going to be higher but offer him 2500 then 3000

Yes it is expensive, but i talked to him and he says he'll lower the price to 3200. I took the car because he decided to throw in some tires

You bought it for $3200? No offense, but you paid a huge premium.

Dont take it to a quick lube to change the oil. Let the car cool down ALOT before changing the oil!!! The oil filter is right abovethe exhaust. When you remove the filter, a little (or alot) of oil will dribble onto the exhaust and catch on FIRE if it is still too hot. Change it yourself, or take a book to read if you go somewhere to have it changed(it willl be HOT even if driven down the street)

Paid a little much but looks to be in GREAT condition. Sometimes its worth it to pay a little more!

$5500 for a 240sx? Is that US or Canadian$? What is the conversion if Canadian?

I paid $1800 US for mine and its like new! My best friend paid $400 for his singlecam. It is in such great shape that the radiator reservoir is still white and uncracked! (240sx owners know what I mean). Al that was wrong with it was the clearcoat looked like crap.

wow, how is that a big premium for an 1989 MR2?

The blue book value is 2000 to 3000. And this wasn't a normal MR2(and thats obvious)

the tires he threw in were m7 tires so it wasnt over priced at all. He's just trying to make a profit for the car he put work into.

and besides i'm happy with the car. I know its an oversteer car, but i like to be challenged.

Well hey as long as you are happy with the car. And me and S2K were looking at the east coast blue book value on the car so sorry about that.
