1993 Nissan 240SX SE review from North America

"I love this car, and hope to get the problem fixed and keep it 10 more years!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Heads-up Display worked occasionally; now not at all.

Digital Speedometer / Odometer does not work.

Sticks in 1st gear and takes 10-15 minutes to shift; sometimes have to power off and reset (works 50% of time) or shift into neutral; sticks in 3rd gear when stopped at lights and has to be stopped, power off, then power on and hope it resets.

Cruise Control does not work.

AM/FM Radio does not work / no lights / antenna motor out.

Leather seats split.

Dashboard cracked.

Door side panels separated from metal doors.

Backseat seams split.

General comments?

For all its faults, I love this car. It's sporty and still looks relevant. Handling is the best of all of my Nissan owned cars, especially at higher speeds.

Mine has the Sports package, which makes the ride a bit hard for some, but I like the feel of the highway. When cruise worked, great. Long hauls, no problem. Around town, she'd rather be on open roads and has to be run once a week.

The backseat is not really for people. This is a 2-person coupe. Big dog for back OK, except the windows don't open,

I've been rough with her, and she lives in the city so there are some serious dings and dents. It is that deep red, but didn't hold up great on back bumper. Would paint, but why?

I just wish I could get the gear shifting problem fixed.. new injectors (all) ; transmission perfect and tested; speed sensor installed; no one can find this intermittent problem. Sticks in gears mostly with me, the wench. I've probably spent almost $3,000 in diagnostics and parts to diagnose and fix this truly annoying problem. I will never again use a Nissan Dealership.
