what's this do..?

i searched, but then i gave up, cause i dont know what it's called, so i couldnt exactly pull up the right results, right.?


anyway, i have a 93 base model, and under my headlight button, is just a plain piece of plastic..

i searched on google, and found this..



i found out that one has two buttons, instead of my ugly plastic piece..

i was just wondering what they do...

Cruise Control.

It's an option, obviously.

Auto = Better option. Better sell value.

Auto = missing a pedal, missing a gear.

^ also, resale value. Did you buy it new? resale value of 240sx's come with the trend, not with KBB these days

if it were a waste it wouldnt have been made in the 1st place...

besides, who am i trying to be, a fake Initial D/Fast and Furious street racer..?

im happy not having to shift every 3 seconds...

i've driven manuals, and after the 4 minutes of novelty wear off, it's a chore

anyway, i checked my friend's 240, and he has it, but thanks for the answers, anyway..

IMO 4 minutes around the block doesn't compare to 60 seconds on a track. But anyways... auto / manual / whatever/ it's still a 240sx.

Everyone just relax.
