1990 Nissan 240SX SE review from North America
"I love my 240SX SE"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Owned car for 17 years.
Replaced clutch once.
Replaced throwout bearing once or twice (don't remember).
Replaced brakes, calipers once.
Replaced muffler once.
Front seat broke after 17 years.
General comments?
Great car as far as performance, looks, and maintenance costs. Corners excellent, though after 17 years, it would be nice to replace the struts.
Please note, this is a 240SX SE, not a standard 240SX, thus the looks are more sporty and I believe it came with the 300ZX suspension package (i.e independent rear wheel suspension, alloy rims, among other things). I'm rating my SE model, and not sure that I would own anything else but the SE model.
I paid a little more for the SE package, but it was so worth it, for the performance and the looks.
NOTE: Please don't look at my Rating score, the website didn't allow me to choose all the drop down options and I don't know what the final score will be. I would give them all 9s or 10s
