LMFAO Who in their right mind would want a 240 over a Cosmo? There is NOTHING good about a 240 unless it's highly modified.

you got to dream bigger, the fact that you see a cosmo, and the first thing you compare it to is a 240 makes my brain bleed :cry:

These were automatic only right? Too bad. :/

They're such nice cars though. Even though I keep looking at them thinking they look plain, there's something VERY appealing in the styling.

Yeah I believe all were auto but I know people manual convert them.

I want a NA 20B Cosmo.

You'd take a car that cost about 14 grand when new over a car that sold at $150k when the same year?(more than 10 times as much)
You'd take an N/A 4 cylinder over a twin turbo 3 rotor?
You'd take a car with the greatest luxury feature as power windows over one of the first 5 cars ever sold with a GPS navigation system, LCD screen, satellite television, and an air purifier built into the headliner?

Are you serious, or is the correct answer to all the above questions "No, but I can look at a car and pretend it's in the same class as a Lexus SC400 and know that I'd want a 240 more than that because I'm too lazy to actually research the car I'm hypothetically not owning."

lol... the only Nissan you can compare the Cosmo to is a Skyline and even that is stretching it. How the hell do you come up with comparing it to a 240?

I love these cars, and just like JITB said it's not just for the 3-rotor, it's the whole package!

Holy shit, it cost $150,000 when it first came out?

it was gonna be around 120k..lol it was going up against Jaguar Xj coupes - benz S coupes - 6 series bmws, and it outdid them in alot of areas. They all were 100k + cars.

yea people mis categorize the cosmo as a tuner type of car, like a rx7 or a supra or even a ............240........ But it was waaaay above that as far as its target, it was close to coming to the states...too bad. i would have 20 of them.

Yeah I saw one of these in person. The attention to detail in every little thing is amazing. Even the reflectors in the lights and such just seemed thought out to look good.

I took TONS of pics of this car.

Eunos Cosmo 3 Rotors were produced less than 1400 over 1990 through 1995. They were by far the most expensive Japanese cars produced even in today's standard (about $70-80K new back in the 90s.. over 100K in today's market).

They are also 1st for a lot of automotive things for production cars.. like GPS Navi, touch screen central climate control, seq. twin turbos, and the famous 3 rotor engine.

This car was recently featured in Modified mag and made it on to the front cover (Jan. 2010).
