What do you people out there, 240 owners, think is the best way to find a stock 240 or a clean 240 nowadays for a reasonable price? I'm currently looking for one now

keep an eye out for one local, there are a few granny fresh ones running around where i am. most people with a stock one arent going to list on a forum or craigslist

Patience and have the money available.

Just gotta have patience and the will/means to go tow/transport it right away.

People are starting to lose the luxury of being able to "browse" a selection of 240s.
Lately it seems like you just need to have the money ready to make a realistic offer and pull the trigger when a clean one pops up.
There is not enough time and too many other interested parties to be making bullshit offers and scheduling a test drive for next week.

I browsed craigslist, and VADriven (forum for us VA folks) for a solid 6 months after wrecking my turbo motor searching for a clean and stock S13 or S14. I found a bone stock S14 SE non sunroof car about 2 hours from me, saw it and bought it the same day. It's patience and then having the ability to jump on it quicker than anyone else.

Go to this website called Zilvia.net. They have a sub-forum called "Classifieds" that may have what you're looking for. Just remember: Money talks & bullshit walks.

GL!
