I would need about a half dozen hands to count the Hondas and 240s I see in a day. So I don't think your answer would be a good representation of your disagreement with this aspect of the OPs topic.

    I do agree with the statement about financing allowing people that can't afford a nice, go-fast car to get one. Later, QD.

    I'm just comparing $ vs $, even if you took that busted up $1500 240sx, that gives you $28,500 to fix it. Said 240 would slaughter a new mustang.

    If i could afford a new mustang, i would buy one and be happy with it. I cant, but for a fraction of the cost i have a 240sx that will out perform a new mustang easily. I'm a broke young guy with an avg job and money to work with and i can reach the performance of a 2010 mustang with 1/4 of the money spent. If you want a new car and all the things that come with owning a new car, buy a new car....

    if you want to look good and go fast, you can do it cheaper with an old platform. rx7 looks good parked beside anything from any generation, so do a lot of other older cheaper cars.
