long live ka24de

i pulled up in a 7-11 tonight next to a white pignose 240 with an older guy drivin it. i struck up a conversation with him about 240's for a bit and found out some interesting stuff. it was an 89 and he bought it new that year, he said he looked into it and all the magazines were raving about the handling, power, etc. he said its the best car he ever had, granted it was a bit beat up on the outside, but it did have 230,000 miles on it. he said he changed the oil regularly and the car still runs fine, he babies it now he said but he used to have some fun with it. it was cool to talk to someone who originally bought the car and really lived the life of it. shows what'll happen when u take car of these motors. i look forward to having mine for 200k+

what a great motor
