1992 Nissan 240SX SE Fastback
Summary:
A stylish, reliable, performance car
Faults:
Rotors have warped.
Heat shield Has come loose.
Left Headlamp flicker occasionally.
Driver seat as bad wear from entering and exiting car.
Driver floorboard has hole in carpet.
General Comments:
The car keeps going and going and going. I have driven over 5 1,000 mile trips and 20 500-600 mile trips. I have never had a major problem with it.
Unfortunately the rotors warped recently and are grinding. I am replacing them with performance rotor that are less likely to warp in the future.
The heat shield came loose after a long road trip. I just raised the car and removed it completely, runs fine.
Headlamp used to flicker rarely, due to a loose connection.
Interior showing severe wear and tear from daily driving. Hole in floorboard is from from foot placement/rubbing when on cruise control.
I never want to part from this car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I have a 92 240SX SE, and I haven't done anything to it but change the oil. It's very dependable and I agree that in the rain it's not very hard to break the rear tires loose.
My mother has been asking me ever since she drove it if she can have it and for me to buy another, but I have no intention to get rid of it.
When I bought mine from a young woman it had 70K, in October 98, I now have 171K and it still runs just as good as the day I bought it. Nice to know that other people are as happy with theirs as I am with mine.
