New From Central Iowa
by Rachie24 Fri Aug 20, 2010 11:16 pm
Hey,
To make this short, I'm new to 240s and haven't owned one before, however I am bringing my first little lady home tomorrow
! It's a 97 SE and it was love at first sight. I decided to look into 240s because I want to learn to work on cars and I've read and heard that they are a great car to learn on, plus they're super sexy. My first car was an 88 300ZX and I would love to have a Z32 but after witnessing how painful and expensive it is to work on and maintain them, I realized it's just not the car for me, at least not for a while. Right now I drive a 98 Mazda Protege and it's a pooch. I hate driving it, I hate being a passenger in it and I'll be getting rid of it shortly, but I will give it credit for being reliable.
So that's it. I look forward to learning a thing or two and getting to know new people.

Thanks!
So are there any upcoming meets planned that anyone has heard about? I'm still new to this and I'd love to see some other 240s to get some ideas on where I want to go with my engine.
