True that my 240 i bought in the summer was "all perfect" also but after getting it used and noticing the previous owner s*** kicked it i realized there were things to fix not big deals but really 240 is a slick car and if u didnt like it y u keep spending the dough to fix it when u already had problems sell it get another 1 without a 240 iunno its like without a cellphone some1 take it away from me and ima kill u.

I would say your car was cursed... By the previous owner, that is. Proper car maintenance is a mandatory part of owning a car, especially when said car is middle-aged and quickly approaching senior citizen status. Hell, even a late 80's/early 90's Hyundai will last you if it's taken care of. Personally, I've found Nissans to be very durable, very reliable cars. And the 240, in particular? How many other 'true' sports cars are there on the market that are as affordable and dependable as this one? Go ahead, I'll wait.

If the constant problems are giving you the blues, try selling it and getting either a newer model, one with fewer miles, one that the owner has all/most of the service records for, or some combination of those three. Otherwise, hang in there, fix those problems, and keep up with the regular maintence. You'll have a rock-solid ride that's sporty to boot!

240's are hardy lil bastards.... they can fend for themselves if properly maintained... now CHRYSLERS on the other hand... or any other american turd on wheels... should be destroyed.

The quality of american cars has really gone downhill these past years. Trucks are about all they make right.

Cool

wow... Thats just great. Dosn't everyone just love people who go to forums where everyone loves what ever the forum is about. Too bad that all this happened to your car. Im not *****ing about what happened to me.

List of Stuff:
1. Two months in having my ep(03 Si) some one hits me.
2. About four months later some one runs me off the road.
3. I break my body kit a week into getting my car back from the body shop.
4. Body kit gets fixed and then breaks when I lower the car.
5. Rims break
6. Engine messed up ( cold air sucks up water ).
7. I have no car now, but now Im looking into getting a S14.

I hate that all this **** happened to my car, but I still love the little f**ker, and Im not telling anyone to not get one cuz they are pieces of ****.... cuz they're not. bad **** happens especially when your car is a daily driver.....

Just my 2 cents

what did he do to you? i hate the flame war but wtf leave him alone honda is a good car. the one in one thousand that break what you gonna do every once in a while a lemon pulls up here or there. Honda's are awsome and last forever most jap/euro car's do. I just think its hilarious these kids dropping crap into little honda's that dont push 100hp stock and want it to become a monster, everyone has their love mobile just leave him be he said he wanted a dam 240 and just wanted to post his dam thoughts. I love ignorant people...
