old from Honda, new to Nissan

Well, not exactly. I have been snooping off and on for a couple of months now and finally decided to register. I would like to start off by saying that even though I own a Integra, I have love for the 240. I may be investing in a Nissan 240sx soon, but havn't decided if I am ready to let go of my first car (investment purposes). I am after a S13 coupe with a 5spd tranny, a strong KA24DE. I would like it to be either black, white or red and with no factory spoiler. I am not sure what trim it is, but I want the stripper model (I.E. no pw, pdl, S/R, c/c, Alloys, ect). and most importantly I am after a clean unmodified speciman. My first mod will probably be a tune-up and a nice set of tires along with a LSD. I look foward to learning and growing about and towards the 89-94 Nissan 240sx.

Thanks for the tip I appriciate it! I may have found one, but he seems a little steep on the price. $4200 is a ****load to much for a 92 hatch. It is in pristine condition, and looks&drives new -the tranny (bad clutch and sincs). The interior is dark gray, and has a balck/white clothe interior. It is black. 108,098 miles, and hasn't left the driveway since his son died (about 6 years ago), and has been storyed in a heated garage with a dust cover over it. Obviously needs gas, tune-up and what not. He wants to sell it and clearly stated to me "no joyrides" when I asked to test drive. I even offered to drain the gas and fill the tank. Motor is clean as hell, and the black paint is perfect (not even a swirl mark). I don't know about the suspention and brakes, but he want me to buy without a testdrive, and that makes me uneasy. Anyways, I have had only 1 call on my teg, and they were lowballin to $750, and I am asking $2500 w/ lots of parts. What do you guys think about the hatch?

I know, If they are in as great condition as the rest of the car, then I would give 3500, but he is being safe I guess. This is what I told him. Maybe This car just want meant to be. Oh well, I really want a coupe anyways. Thanks.
