The newer S14's with the more aggressive headlights are damn sweet, one of my favorite cars out there. Rare as hell though around here because of all the mad tyte driftos

I went from 95 240sx s14.5 to 2003 350z now single turbo by turbonetix. Love my Z but i miss my 240sx. Had so much respect with 240sx. Thing is you see so many Z on road and s14's you see once a month if you lucky especialy s14.5.

Pix of mine sold for $13,000

Kind of. I still have my S13, but havent driven it in a few years. Its collecting rust.
Fun car though but deff no comparison. I would like a nicer one though to tinker with. They are becoming like civics though now. Everyone and their mother has them and swapping them and crashing them

bought my z in 03, and then bought s13 for 400.00, sold it for 1500.00 lucked upon a 95 s14 for 1500.00 w/extras... sold it/with extras for 6550.00. still have my z though. so i guess you'd say i went in reverse. s13/s14 great platform.

Funny, my first car was supposed to be a 240sx. Fortunately, I came across a Z...

I had a modded s14 for a little while as a DD before I bought my Z. I myself am into really rare cars. The s14 was faster than the Z and I really preferred having a car that not everyone could recognize.

What it came down to for me is having the Z is a lot more practical as a DD than the 240. The modded s14 was getting a little too close to the reason I need a DD to begin with.

I went from S14 to a 07 350z. 240's are cool cars, fun to work on, and nice aftermarket support. But I moded the S14, doesn't compare to a Z in anyway. I feel the dude that mentioned the status thing, to me its just a material object. Does the same ****. point A to B. 350z wayyyy nice though XD cool thread

I have a turbocharged Z33 and my 240 is still much much faster. No question the Z is a far superior car, but it will never drive like my 240.

I had an S13. LOVED IT! IMO, best car (old or new) I have had to date. I was looking to get a Z but felt it was too heavy, and at the time, would have had to burn a considerable amount of money for me to get it as fast as the S13.

I am waiting to see what the new breed of Z/Silvias present and may get a Z at that time. So many new sports cars are coming out. I feel like a kid in a candy store.

my first love was a 90 s13. too bad i had to get rid of it. I am seriously considering getting another one for a project car in addition to my Z. I would really love to go for the trifecta and get a new gtr as well.

Had a 95 as a project but sold it to focus more on the Z. Bought the 95 240 Auto with 286K for $480 dollars. Ran and drove jsut fine, little beat up, then sold it for $1200 a month later. Would have loved to keep it, but I want a 98 if im going to be dumping a boat load of money into it.
