Good Points

Adrenalin rush it gives you when powersliding roundabouts and sweepy bends - best car for the money in its class with loads of power and stopping ability.


Bad Points

Trying to fit someone in the back who isnt 5 years old - or if you live somewhere where it snows constantly - or if you aren't a real driver who is scared of the backend coming round to greet you - (which happens a lot when pushing hard in the wet around bends)- parts can be expensive but its japanese so nothing goes wrong anyway (unless you stack it)


General Comments

Got a Nissan 200sx S14 1995 - I still love it after 2 1/2 years of ownership and 25,000 miles - probably because the Adrenalin rush it gives you when powersliding roundabouts and sweepy bends - best car for the money in its class with loads of power and stopping ability - best take care in the wet but fun if you want it to be (or if your daring enough) - powerful enough in its standard form for dry powerslides but make sure your shocks are in good nick so you can control the pendulum effect (cost me a new wheel and various interconnecting arms) - anyway - realised what can be done with it after visiting SXOC.com (SX Owners club) - Apex performance sold me a boost valve and gauge & K&N to lift it to 15psi 230+bhp(8.5 psi std) which truly makes this car an aggressive animal on-boost (but amazingly comfortable to drive around town under 3000k) - if you fit an exhaust you are looking at a standard Skyline beater with 270bhp in a lighter car than a Skyline for not much more money than a newish crap fiesta.

If you want a Scooby/Evo but without the insurance remortgage this is the car for you... or you want to but its a 50:50 balanced car so controling it is a joy.

Overall 9/10 Recomended for everyone especially the proper drivers and modifier enthusiasts without the money for a Scooby.
