Bought the car brand new when it first came out and still have it till this day. Put about 230,000 miles on it about 2 years ago and did a motor swap to sr20det. Best car ever driven in my life.

Review

I got my 240 as a 16th birthday present in '97 and have been driving it ever since. I absolutely love this car! The manual transmission is so much fun to drive, whether it's up and down hills, in the city, or on the highway. I don't know if this is just my 240, but it's never happier than when it's doing 90+ on the highway. A bigger back seat would be a dream, but it's a 2 door coupe, so c'est la vie. I actually feel like it has good-sized trunk for a car of its size. Have had no huge problems in all the time that I've been driving it, other than a recently undiagnosed problem with the car starting from time to time. Drives smooth, great brakes. Would recommend to anyone who enjoys driving.

Favorite Features

The smooth transitions between its five speeds. Easy to change oil and oil filter. Smooth external body contour. Easy to use, intuitive layout. Well placed speakers.

Suggested Improvements

Like a couple of others have said, a cup holder would be great.

Review

This is a wonderful car. The car hugs the road better than any other car I've driven. Little bit weak in th engine for my killing, but then again, I can never go fast enough. I LOVE the interior but the pop-up lights are a bit ugly. Other than that, I must say that this car is definitely worthy of an A+.

Favorite Features

Independent suspension, lots of get-up- and-go, fast for a four banger, great interior layout.

Suggested Improvements

get rid of those darn pop-up headlights and replace them with something more like the headlights on a 300ZX

Review

it's truly a nice car, i'm sure when it was fresh from the lot it was a blast. But it seems age is beginning to catch up with the poor thing, the once very high-tech 4 wheel HICAS steering system is buggy at best, and such comfort items like the clutch dampner box have become a problem. The motor is a strong point, it is very reliable, and builds power uniformly across the power band. the interior is very simple, neat and driver friendly. The exterior is among one of the timeless designs that still looks sporty even among the ranks of the new Z

Favorite Features

handling by far. the 50/50 weight balance is wonderful. it is very easy to plant the rear of the car in corners.

Suggested Improvements

cable driven clutch, no ABS, no HICAS, SR20DET, shorter rear axle, wider rear tire.
