I haven't been on here long, so I don't know how good your car looks. I do know I bought a pretty good looking 97sc300 with coilovers, brand new wheels and tires, new front lip and great interior for $7500.00. I don't think he'd take less than an average SC with about twelve grand to boot. I would definately trade though if given the chance. (I wouldnt, but if I was you and you liked them cars that much, I would)

Again, I haven't seen your car so it could be worth a whole lot more than mine. Good luck either way.

If he will do a straight across trade then I would for sure go for it. Make sure you check it out good first though, cl light, car faxs ect...

I wouldn't even be able to register that car here. They are nice but I bought an SC because I wanted an SC.

Nice car but the engine really devalues in my opinion.

those cars are cool and all. but not my thing. personally i think the SC looks likes its worth more. the design is so good its timeless....that nissan is nice but not digging the rear. s13 would b my choice if i were to get one (i wouldnt) .... its just that nissan reminds me of a kid racer while SC/Supra is more like a mature look IMO... but i always tend to mod my car the way i like it. so if u like that car better than the SC, then its an easy choice for you..... good luck !

Man, I guess I'm alone when I say I think the S15 isn't a great looking car at all. If I were to get an s-chassis, i'd go with S14 with s15 subframe. Then SPL arms all around. Then slam. Then BN. Then VS-KF. But then again, I'm not really sane, as I would get a C33 laurel miles before any s-chassis if I could get one.

I would never own a non-turbo S Chassis. I wouldnt waste that much money on that car when I could have a really nice SC for that price that would stomp that car into the ground. The reliability of a toyota motor is in my opinion better than nissan anyway. the build quality of an SC is better. I would just stick with your SC.

I have owned a couple S chassis and they are nowhere near the quality of the SC. Its a nice Nissan but not worth it.

Ive always liked the S15, it has a lot to offer, handles better, maybe a slighter modern interior (albeit with cheaper materials). However you will draw attention and that might not be a good thing. Also im disappointed this one is NA and to be honest looks kind of meh...

SC looks more value for money, design is timeless, interior has better quality. More room in the SC.
Ive driven a RHD S15, outside of the RWD and Handling, its on par with a MX6, Celica, Prelude etc.....

If really depends on what you can get out of this car and why you are disapointed in what you got?
Sounds to me your ready to jump ship bc of the coolness factor of this ride, which i assure you the novelty will quickly wear off.

I think your better looking for a RHD Soarer.

All these opinions are great. ON my end of the situation, I wouldn't just because of trying to locate and wait on parts to arrive, unless there is a ton of parts available that I don't know about for it. Its nice, but what are your intentions for the car? if just driving it, then keep the SC. I saw a Nissan Skyline in T-Town for sale here in Bama for 17K. I thought about calling him just to see if he might toss the idea around about a trade. I have always loved those cars, but trying to get parts..... That's when I slept on it and said it isn't worth it.
