Thanks guys!
It's nice to see there are a few people like me. You know and love your imports but you still have love for the Good old American Muscle! Personaly I love my 240sx but I would love it even more with a 454 chevy bigblock crate engine with a B&M supercharger edelbrock headers with flowmaster straight pipes and tubed out with Mickey Thompson slicks in the back.
Yeah Improrts are great but a rumbling v8 has it's own beauty too you know what I mean?

Letting go of my 240sx? You must be kidding! I keep all my cars. I still have my very first car that I got when I was 16 (1991 Buick Lesabre limited) I still love that car it's got the 3.8 v6 it now has 330,000 km's (aprx. 190,000 miles) on it and still runs like new ( I baby all my cars) When that engine goes if it ever goes I will be dropping in the 3.8 supercharged v6 from the Grand prix GTP it bolts right in with no modifications other then the ECU, gas line and brake lines . If I still had my 1990 Chevrolet camaro Iroc it would of been even better but it's no longer with us, it went to heaven where all Camaro's go when they die. Unfortunately it died young but at least I survived the crash so it sacrificed it's life to save mine and 2 or 3 years after I buy the Grand National I will purchase another 1990 Iroc. My goal in life is to have as many cars as possible. When I was a little kid I had over 320 Hotwheels and I still have them all. So now the legacy continues but this time I will play with real toys!
I get too attached to my cars, when I buy a car it's for life.
Thank you all for the Good Grand National responces and yes it's nice to see imports and American muscle play together
Thanks again
