I love the way this car handles. It has a four cylindar but WOW it has all the power i need. Im 18 and i love my car there are no extras yet.I hope to get a tall rear spoiler,rims,and some off set stripes over my car.
Weakness:
The worst thing about my car is that i need a new exaust im thinking of a flowmaster.I don't like it cause i have to keep puttin on brake pads but thats mainly my fault :O) i would recommend this car to only people that mix fun with drivin. Similar Products Used: well i haven't got much to compare it to. i had a 93 mustang four cylindar and i could have eaten it for lunch in my 240sx. |

OKay, its RWD!!! thats phat. also the power eveything, awesome looks. definatly not a common sight on the road. THIS IS NOT A HONDA! theres nothing else like drifting. dont know what i mean? buy one! drive one! you'll see. stereo is decient for stock. awesome looking stock 16" alloys, Ive only had the car a month and i love it. its not like ANY honda (which i also love) on the road! no honda can do this! this car is totally underrated! its possibly the most overlooked phat fast RWD sports car! did i mention its definatly a SPORTS CAR.
Weakness:
no cup holder? BUY ONE! they cost 2$ at pep boys. no back seat? ITS A SPORTS CAR! dont buy the 240 for taking the kids to hockey practice! No trunk? same thing. this car is for a kid. or a very cool adult. Im 20, i drive this car like a jerk. and she loves it! the only thing i would say sorta bugs me is the rear windshield... its always fogged up in the morning and i cant see a darn thing! but whatever..you dont race in the morning! the only stupid thing i did was buy an automatic! AAAHCH! that totally blows...im thinking of having it converted and dropping a turbo. or i could leave the power as is. and focus on looks alone. either way the car could be hooked up. or if i ever get the money i could do both. not as cheap to fix up as a honda. but a honda's not REAR WHEEL DRIVE! this has been a thought i couldnt make a decision about for awhile now. heres my options. please email me (darthloco@hotmail.com) with your opinion. seriously: Similar Products Used: 96 civic hatchback DX AUTO! - too slow, everything else about this car was perfect. just couldnt race anyone and everyone tried me. |

It's the sharpest looking car I have owned. I love the interior (fits like a glove) It handles great, looks snazzy and handles excellent.
Weakness:
There's nothing I don't like about it. I paid $7,000 (canadian) and I would highly recommend it. It's a sports car that is just right for me! Similar Products Used: I had a Mazda RX-7 before the Nissan...it's similiar in style and size. |

Strength:
I love the way it looks and the tight handling. REAR WHEEL DRIVE!!! The seats are extremely comfortable and the gauges are easy to read and well placed. It rides low and fast. I race it whenever I get the chance at the nearest stoplight. The sunroof is great and i love the overall look of the car. The gearbox is very tight and responsive and that is a definite plus. POWER+SPEED+STYLE+HANDLING=ONE GREAT CAR!!!
Weakness:
The dash is cracked due to sun exposure. The brakes absolutely suck if ABS is not on the car. Hard to find performance products (bolt-ons). The speedometer is all screwed up (some electronic thing i guess). At the top of the power band there is little torque. Turbo needed. Radio and speakers are terrible. Reccomend replacing ASAP and adding subs because 4x6 speakers put out little or distorted bass. IT is a great car for anyone loking to get away from stupid little Civics and Integras that spin their front wheels and look retarded. This car is for someone looking to fix up a real car with real style and real potential. I would reccomend this car to anyone as long as you get the ABS, handling package, and limited slip differential. I have the latter two and i love the car except the braking system. Similar Products Used: My first car was an 88 VW Golf GT. It doesn't even compare to this car! |

Strength:
One of a kind body style. Good accleration for an automatic. Handles great on windy roads. Very nice interior. Very reliable at 101,000 miles. Enough power to bury 120mph on speedometer.
Weakness:
Needs more power! Very capable of handling more power(Nissan Sivia,japanese version of 240sx,2.2litre TURBO 200hps+). Handles poor in rain with average tires. Paid 12,000 US dollars with 30,000 miles. Handles excellent in rain with 205/55 16 bridgestone RE730 potenzas. Noticable power difference with K&N drop in filer. Similar Products Used: 88 honda prelude, not as fast nor did handle as well |

Strength:
THE DRIFTING,THE POWER,THE HANDLING,OH BOY IT HANDLES SOOOO GOOD.POSSIBLY THE MOST INDESTRUCTIBLE 4 CYLINDER ENGINE IN WORLD HISTORY.OH THE DONUTS, FUN,FUN,FUN.GREAT LOW SUSPENSION.
Weakness:
THE GEARING,IS WAY TO LONG ON 5TH GEAR TOOOO LOOONG.THE OEM FAN DESINTEGRATE AGAINST THE ALSO DESINTEGRATED FAN SHROUD.LACK OF TURBO. I WOULD DEFINATELY RECOMMENDED TO ANY ONE WITH ENOUGH GUTS TO PULL A DONUT ON IT.BUT SERIOUSLY FOR SOMEONE WHO WANTS RELIABILITY AND SOME SERIOUS THRILLS(NO SPILLS PLEASE, I DO NOT WANT TO SEE WRECKED 240'S IN THE INTERNET PLEASEEE).WITH AN ENGINE THAT WOULD NOT QUIT AFTER OVERHEATING OVER 7 TIMES (THANKS TO THE PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED WEAKENESS),WITH THE LOOKS OF A BULLY AND THE CORNER CRAVING CAPABILITY OF JET FIGHTER,YOU CANNOT LOSE WHEN BUYING ONE.ENOUGH SAID... PS THERE IS CUPHOLDER REMOVE THE ASHTRAY, AND VOILA. Similar Products Used: 1990 INTEGRA LS BLEW IT ON THE 1/4 MILE.1991 MAZDA MIATA TOTALY MODIFIED BLEW RIGHT BY IT. |

Strength:
This car had pretty good pickup, and will hit 110 easily, no prob. Great interior, and superb handleing. Can do donuts no prob, with possy rear end. great ride nice and smooth, you feel like you are in a cockpit of a jet. Well that is the way i feel. And can be upgraded to be a 200+ horsepower 4-cylinder.
Weakness:
Had to replace fuel injector, and blew out o ring, but still hauled ass. Be careful when putting in spark plugs, you can cross thread the block very easily, because it is made of aluminum. I found out the hard way. If you do plan on purchaseing one of these awsome cars, make shure you get a manuel tansmission. Automatics are nice, but manuel has alot more power, and is cheaper on gas. Trust me. Eats up on gas, because the heads are huge on this engine, remember its a 2.4 liter. This car is a very reliable car like a honda. Very comforable and make you want to drive it all day. I never got to relly upgrade it but it can be modified to have 200+ horsepower. The only mod i did was a HKS intake. Sounds cool and gives you mare power. It cost me about 150$ for the intake kit. Intercoolers and turbos may be comeing out soon for the stock engine. The 240sx can be modified and, have a sylvia engine dropped in it, and that is what gives it 200 plus horsepower. And then from there you can add intercoolers and turbos, witch are already out and can be purchased in any import magazine. Overall in i think this car is great, stock, but can be upgraded to be one badd ass 4-cylinder. Similar Products Used: Its one of a kind |
