Miata vs 240sx

1 thing is for sure..no hachi rokus...too damn expensive nowadays (u could get one for $500 instead of $2000)

:laugh: That's not true if you know where to look. It's a very fun car to drive, kinda like a Miata. I always liked the Miata since I was a little kid, I could care less what other people think. I think the whole 240 vs Miata thing depends on the type of driver you are. Then find out which pros suit you driving style and get that car, good luck with your choice both are good cars :bigthumbu .

cult like following yea ok http://www.southfloridamiataclub.com/ here are sum cult members there all senior citizens lol benchmark handling u have to be fucking kidding me you really must not be doin your research since da newest shit nowadays is dropping ls1s in s13s
What I ment by benchmark handling is by class as in 4 cyl class under $5000. And take a look at spec miatas. Lightweight +great suspension wins. I love the 240 but since it's a must have car now it most likely experiences vandalism and theft.
 
miata = homo...240 = everyone has one ~ gay... e30 = badass ... ae86 = not for the faint of heart

since you're starting out a 240 would suit you since it likes to stay sideways and has plenty of torque but i learned a ton on my 86 and i recently started messing around with e30s which i like a lot more...240s are also cheap and abundant soooo do what you like but if you find and 86 or an e30 go for it and Stiffen the FUCK up!!

i say ...drive both then youll see.... having a s14 it is nice especially interior and torquey. cheap mods....(pre used mostly) junk yard parts...aka J30 Z32 Q45 wheel options from many cars blah blah blah

but at work one day i test drove a early 90's miata and wow they are fun really responsive steering even stock but soo blah on power

id say get a e 30 and be different....all depends how much money you have..check forums there are some badass miata's out there..(trust me it can not be gay)
 
well if your going to go with a miata i have one for sale

and jdmnismo300 stop hating miatas have a whole mess of swaps you cold do look at gearz on espn 2 and there current project is a small block v8 miata it fits right in and i have some frinds doing an f22 swap into a miata i love s13 im planning on getting one but miatas are fun cars light weight and tons of options

jdmnismo always hating j/k lol
wow the first time jeff ever post and its someting not providing any info. at all
 
just droping in with my thoughts.... i got a s13 as my 1st car. before the whole drift crazy and everything else and i loved it! its fun because you can do everything to the car and you can find parts any where. i never owned any thing other then s13s and alot of my friends have been the same way. i have driven just about every mita out there (use to work for carmax) and they are a fun lil car but i personaly cant get over the style of the car and how tight the interior is.


o and BTW the 240sx was considered a "girl car" when it was out in the 90s

-Hard to find a clean one w/o a Tokyo Drift price+tax

apparently you dont check the for sale section of this forum!
you can definately find a nice s13 or s14 on this site even if youre on a budget
plus i beat up on miatas for my morning workout

I'm debating on my 1st drift project. I've researched on both cars and I know there's some miata owners and many 240 owners here. I'm hoping to get some of ur input and advice here. Why would the Miata be a better car? Why would the 240 be a better car?
Miata (NA)
Pros:
-Benchmark handling
-Convertable
Cons:
-Tight interior
-Homosexual Stereotype ( I don't care what other ppl think anymore)
-cute

240SX (S13...S14s look better but are more expensive)
Pros:
-2.4 Liters of torque!
-Macho (compared to the miata)
-Junkyards are full of s13 parts (wonder why)
Cons:
-Everyone wants one now
-Many want to steal them
-Heavier
-Hard to find a clean one w/o a Tokyo Drift price+tax

MACHO!? LMAO! I can't even keep count of how many women I see driving 240s. :laugh: That is like saying 86s are fast. Even then stock GT-S are as fast as stock S13/S14.
 
Try both of them out you have nothing to lose... I seriously don't know why people talk soo much shit without even knowing any info.. IMO Jdmnismo300 got called the fuck out..

And Noah is still slow... DIS.

It don't matter how slow I am. If I wanted to go fast, I would have gotten something with a V8 instead of a Corolla, and own your punk ass. This is a drifting forum, not a power whore forum. :lolhittin
