I am OUT! - New DD/Project arrives tomorrow!
Well after searching for a month or so I finally decided on a new DD/Project car. 95 Nissan 240SX. 100% STOCK (you would not believe how hard it is to find one thats not trashed/riced). Its the right price (infact I will have more $$ left over than I had planed for), the right place, and everything I wanted it to have. Its an SE with front lip, ABS, and most importantly LSD 
. Another major benefit will be no car payment! Maybe it will get an SR20 one day. In all actuality I will still swing by every now and then, as the civic is not leaving just transfering drivers (wifey gets the vic and we get rid of the FORD). Here is a pic, let me know what yall think.

Rep Power: 280 You guys are right on. Super hard to find one in this good a condition. Its a 2 owner adult driven car. Plus the guy was not trying to be all CRAZY on the price, $3500 is a steal! The only blemishis are a little paint flake under the driver headlight & the back tint has a few bubbles. All VERY minor. CARFAX came back completely clean too! I guess thats why I am willing to drive 3 hours to pick her up. So while you are all looking, what wheels do you think would look good? May stick with 16" might go up to 17" though. Thanks for the comments BTW.

Rep Power: 280 Unfortunately the deal on this car fell through. Drove from Dallas to Houston (4 hours) to check it out, it was not in as good a shape as the owner said. It has oil around the head gasket & smoked like the rings were fried 
. Cosmeticaly it was nice but mechanicaly it was less than solid. So I guess I am going to put a little more cash into the vic & hang on to the focus for a while longer. Maybe I will start looking for a Lexus SC 300. I have seen a few for a good price in my area. Thanks anyway for all the comments guys.
