Just bought it 4 months ago, but I am thinking of a 3000gt vr-4

Anyways, just seeing if anyone is interested.

ps I love the car, but it is just too #### slow.

What you trying to get for it?

DragonReborn214 · 10-10-2001, 02:14 AM

I bought it for $10,600 +ttl 3 months ago. So somewhere in that ballpark.

DragonReborn214 · 10-10-2001, 02:16 AM

BTW, those pictures are from when the car was dirty. (can you tell?) Ill post clean ones tomorrow.

If it wasn't for that california plate i saw on the front, i'd definately be interested. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('>

heh, thats the thing that got me interested. I live in Cali! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

I live in ohio, so it'd take a weeks vaction to get the car (and that's if he met me halfway).  So buying a car from someone in cali isn't an option for me.

Why whats the prob m8 not fast enough for ya?
Y` definitely looking to increase your velocity levels moving onto a 3000GT. Y`dont need more power already do ya?
Although if thats the case i know how you feel. If i had the money i`d modify mine until it took off. Y`d probably see me on those "WORLDS WILDEST POLICE VIDEOS" (yeah we have them over here too-99% US footage on almost every night-God you`s americans are nutters)doing a back flip in the fast lane as the front of my car lifts off the ground-and you`d just get a close up of me in the window eyes wild, cackling wildly adrenalin squirting out my ears as the car does somersaults and then lands on its roof. And the smarmy sneering host/narrator chappy would walk past me in my upside down car speaking to the viewers into the camera "and this sad a-hole just didn`t know when to stop modifying his car" at which point i`d reach out and grab his ankle and start biting it....AHH fun..fun..fun!

Got a little carried away there, Dave?

JeffNJ · 10-10-2001, 09:37 AM

That was probably the funniest thing I'm going to read all day.  Thank you.

DragonReborn214 · 10-10-2001, 02:50 PM

Hehe. Yeah, I had a 300zx tt before, but it was my first rwd car, and I did't know how to handle the car in emergency situations, so basically I put her into a wall after hitting a wet spot on a turn. Anyways, The 240 handles very well, but I am not willing to sink 6 grand into engine work, when the value of the car will only go down. The more work you do to a twin turbo car, the more it is worth.

i think you're asking too much for a 95.  most that i see sell for 9

96SEChick · 10-11-2001, 10:00 PM

But keep in mind that the car is 6 years old (almost 7) and it has ONLY 58000 miles.  That's very low for that year--doesn't even average 10000/year and the national average is 12-15000 miles/year.  That does add value to the car.  And it's in excellent condition--it looks VERY clean.
