Why is it that...

I never “put down” the 240, I am enjoying mine very much by keeping it original and mint. A civic btw is the last car I would ever own. Classic cars that appreciate in value are an investment, I’m sorry the 240 is not an item that will increase in value significantly, once again this is not an insult at the 240 but unless everyone is planning to keep their car for another 40 years, don’t call putting money into a 240 an investment because there is no return! I understand that there is a sort-of self satisfaction and investment of time for yourself in knowing you did the work, made it fast, etc. However, I think you can agree that there is no monetary value in it.

For everyone else, I don’t disagree with you guys spending money….I mean hey it’s your money! I was just offering my opinion towards things. It’s great that you guys love modifying your 240’s, making them go faster, learning about them, etc… but its not for everyone….like me!

I’m not sure if someone else has replied to this but I just read it so I’m going to reply.

Maybe I read wrong but I believe most people put money into a 240sx NOT because they want to make money off it in the future, but rather, putting money into your 240sx will make it a little more fun. It’s more of a hobby.

I don’t remember anyone mentioning that the reason why they put money into a 240sx is because they wanted to make a profit out of it? Unless Phil posted in here?

And if we really wanted to invest money, I’m pretty sure that most of us would put it into an RRSP or something. Not a 240. Come on.
