Youre getting the SC for all the wrong reasons man.

ANd just race your SC from a roll. unless theyre swapped youll kill any na 240sx this way.

5,500 is a good price if its mechanically sound and not trashed on the interior or wrecked.

I would just wait for a manual if you're serious though.
I don't know why everyone says that, sc's were in the top 10 cars for drifting. Just put some coilovers on and you'll be fine.

How many professional sc's do you know that are drifting? If you are referring to the Vertex soarer, that car is 90% dry carbon fiber. Is anyone here willing to dump $20,000 on carbon fiber alone?

READ what I said. You're telling me a stock SC300 is a top 10 car for drifting? Of course I don't doubt a modified one might be, with a ton of weight reduction. Hell, if a Pontiac GTO can be modified to drift good, then of course an SC300 can. But I'd like to see who came up with this list if its true.. . Theres more to drifting then just coil overs anyhow (camber, TIRES, SHOCKS etc )and if he just lowers the car and sucks at driving hes just going to fly off the road and break ****.
