For a while I've been entertaining the idea of getting a Nissan beater to tinker with(prolly never happen cause I have enough cars). So for entertainment I check out ebaymotors just to see what older SE-R Sentras and 240's are going for.
B13('91-'94) SE-R Sentras are still dirt cheap, but for some reason I'm seeing that the S13 240's have now reached collector car status. These idiots seriously want 5.0 Mustang prices for these cars, claiming they''re "Silvias" and "Awesome drift cars." And what's worse, is they're not even stock. I could see paying decent money for an unmolested car, but these all have bodykits and look like absolute crap.
So I go over to the Nissan forum. Click on the 240 page and almost everysingle screenname has something to do with drifting. So I ask...What's the big freaking deal? So they have one of 5 imports with RWD. Mustangs have had RWD All 40 years of it's existence. But you don't see all of us Stangnet people calling ourself drifters.
I try to keep an open mind, that not all import people are complete idiots. I even have friends with imports. But geez...this kind of crap is getting ridiculous.
So needless to say, I've abandoned all efforts to join the import owners club. I mean $500 a pop for an SE-R aint bad, but I really don't want to look like an moron.
