> We moved to Canada when I was 9 and my dad was looking for a used car to drive around. I went on a few viewing with him and saw my 1982 Datsun 200SX. The car had a Voice Activated System (it speaks), it looked really nice, it had a HUGE old cell phone stuck to the dash, and I remember loving the smell of that car a lot. I begged my dad to buy it, and he did. A couple years down the road it was given to me on my Birthday. I loved the car so much but for various reasons I couldn’t drive it much. I went through a few cars that I hated. 1989 Pontiac Bonneville, 1988 Toyota Supra Turbo, 1987.5 Audi Coupe GT, 2000 Dodge Neon, then I finally bought this 1990 Nissan 300ZX after a long hard look for a Kouki S14. When I drove it, I realized that I’m truly all Nissan.

fine fine, my old S13 hatch. i got it because the shell and SR was about the price of that donut will owes you and it was cheap to fix and this was before everyone and their uncle had a 240

Good boy 🙂

Now we don’t care cause you’re a Nissan Traitor 😛

P.S. Everyone and their uncle doesn’t have an S13. It’s just that majority of the people you chill with have and adore them. If you look closely, you will see that the general public really doesn’t know much about the 240, other than, “those damn kids making all that noise with the tires squeeling as they irratically make the car slide sideways.” The 240 is actually getting fewer and fewer as we speak.

my 1st S12: because it looks like a corolla GTS (was Intial D fan boy). I saw one on a very shady car lot operation, rust bucket, but after bracing my self I bought it anyway. it needs $3k to be put on the road. I never plated it and sold it couple months later for the same price.

my 2nd S12: it’s turbo RWD from the factory, and have very low Ks (85k for 22 years old car is unbelieveable) and most important, it was certified and e-tested, which was a deal maker for me.

after having a taste on the rust bucket S12, I just have to have another one. RWD, turbo, oldschool, perfect for upgrade with the province not bothering me with anything. the only downfall is upgrade parts is virtually non-existance

Summer of 1990, I was doing 160km on the 400 in my Cutlass and this sexy looking car was tailgating me. I pulled to the right, and it passed me like I was parked.  
Spring of 1991 I bought my 300ZX.  
Loved driving it then, and still enjoy driving her now, 17 years later.

I bought my s13 because it was cheap, and I can’t pass out the deal on a car that didn’t have any holes in the floor…lol

Than I found out you could do a lot of things to them, without ricing them out.

And at the time…anything was better than my honda(P.O.S)

I wanted a four door car with a manual transmission and some v6 power. I got A 2002 Altima 3.5SE for $14 000 in 2006. not bad considering the car was still in production. I admit there are better cars out there but money does not grow on trees. The car still kicks a\*\* though…

My first Nissan, is also my first car.  
Loved the Versa when I first test drove it in 2007 when it came out. Ended up purchasing it a year later in 2008. I have loved every minute with it. I think I made a good purchase 🙂
