Report on my car

Sent you a PM...

I was actually in the same boat with my 240SX, fixing problem after problem. In hindsight, I wish I had stuck with it. But I am happy with my NC. So I still am not not sure where I stand.

I think I will just accept I got a good car in the end, shut up, and move on.

since i have had the car i have had one bad experience after another, including rebuilding the motor, i have an insane amount of money in it....but I have been down this road before and from experience you have to know when to say enough is enough.
I should have said that when the motor needed a rebuild but I had faith that it would be strong.....i never considered the crank bolt would come out.
i have 7600.00 in the engine and SC alone and will see maybe a 4200.00 return on that if I am lucky.
i could lie to myself some more and say well almost everything is new now, but last time I did that it cost me another 500.

So I really just want to be rid of it now, it doesn't even feel right to drive it anymore, cant trust it so i gotta get rid of it.

My plan is to try and get a gently used NC with a CLEAR Carfax.
But I am at this point considering other options.

Billy, I know you've been frustrated. And I'm NOT telling ya what to do. But if you're a screw turn away from having a fun, driveable car, I say turn that screw first...
