prelude vs. mr2 turbo

[ferrarifreak013]

oh and money isnt really an issue just becuase when i find a job i have abot 1250 right now in the bank and i dont get my license until the 30th of august and if i can find a job i will be making payments.... but i also kind of like having the idea of having back seats and the only kind of 300zx i would buy would be a 300zx tt two seater because wheel base is 15in shorter in the two seater and the rx-7 is also only a two seater but i do like the idea of an old m3

how is money not an issue yet your worring about insurance cost?

[Gtek-i]

300ZX...don't get the turbo

RX-7...hard and expensive to maintain

I'd go for the M3

[scottie300z]

if its your first car, get something cheaper. or get the 'lude. awd is nice also.

cause my parents are gonna be paying for my insurance and they have a limit on what it is not sure exactly of the limit though

[Gtek-i]

but the M3 is cheap (old one)...but on the other hand, parts are expensive...so no M3. How about an old Toyota Supra Turbo?

[ferrarifreak013]

nah i never really liked supras they are nice looking but i kind of want something that is nice but isnt insane because the reason of it being my first car and im not really into supras(im very pickey)

yeah thats also kind of why im also looking at like a 95' celica gt

[Gtek-i]

Or a '98 Honda Civic Si? Nissan 240SX?

I'd get a cheapo banger for your first car. You'll crash your first car, no doubt about it. Think of it this way ... do you want to write off a cheap car and then move onto a performance car or do you want to write off a performance car and then be stuck with a banger until you have more money? Trust me, going from a performance car to an econobox really kills.

You can't be certain that he'll crash, apparently there is "only" a 70% chance ¬_¬

ha yeah well most people seem to think that and im the last of my friends to get my license and none of my friends have gotten in a crash and most of them have had there licenses for almost a yearand i am probably not going to get the car for like another three months and i get my license soon and i get my moms 00' escort until i can afford a car

Hmm, I happen to like 240SX's! One of my favorite modern vehicles.

Otherwise...MR/2. It's another one of my favorite modern vehicles. It's worlds better than the Prelude in almost every regard, and the two are pretty even on the gas mileage...but like others have said, insurance will probably suck you dry.

I'd have to agree on getting a beater car though. I never got into an accidednt proper, but did get my first car scraped up. You don't want to get something you'll like too much for a first car. Just drive it around for a year and then upgrade.

MR2 or 240SX.
RWD>FWD

the 240 SX sold in Europe as 200 SX is RWD

[Slicks]

well around here there are alot of people who are in to drifiting and i personally can not stand it and around here it holds a very high image of drifting

hmmm
What about the Prelude's image of being a boy street-light racer?
