I own a 95 GS, woo.So enthusiastic.But anyway, I want to get a 95 or 96 GSX. How much more insurance will I be expecting to pay? On top of that, how much do the cars themselves cost? Thanks a million, 4G63 Power!

i paid $7100 for my 95 GSX it had 82000 miles, its red, with a clean record full coverage insurance ran $3200 a year, liability is about $700-$800 a year. I am 18.

the market here is bad, so i wont let you laugh at how much you pay for a dsm here. check out nadaguides.com or kbb.com for the retail value of most cars. insurance for me is 2600 a year for a 97 talon TSI AWD (35k miles even though it doesnt matter for insurance), for being 17.

Ok what about this...1995ish Eclipse GS-t or 1997 240sx ? Which would you honestly chose? The reason I wanted the AWD is because I love drifting.But I suppose i can give up that idea for a kick-@ss sleeper.But with the 240 i could do both! See my points.Help me out here, throw me a friggin' bone.

AWD tends to understeer in principle... acceleration puts weight on the back tires moreso than the front, and ideal 50/50 torque distribution with less traction in front is understeer. may be wrong if i hear from someone who races.

anyway they are both nice cars, decide for yourself, don't let people on the eclipse forum tell you that the eclipse is better (you knew that already), because nissan people love their 240's a lot too.

I have a 1995 gst and my full coverage insurance is 160. I am in the market to sell it b/c I got my girlfriend a 01 spyder. This car is excellent and it is on nadaguides.com for over $6500. Would be willing to take best offer. I'm looking around $5500 for it. (5-speed, new tires, timing belt, batt, tensioners. I can send you pics if you are interested. Email me at [email protected]
