p.s. i never said i didn't want a honda. i said they are over priced as a result of f and f and ricers. ut i'm not paying a fortune for a used car that never did anything special to even be considered a collectors car

yeah i guess your right. i dont know to much about the drift scene and nissan price range. i just thought it was on the rise because this guy in my tech class paid $13k for a s15 240sx with a silvia front end and some bbs's. its very clean, but its still got the stock ka with an automatic tranny.
now that is rice price if i most say so. i've seen mint twin turbo 300's go for $8-9k, a much better choice i think.
