VW bug FTW. 240Z FTW. Both are great cars. Bugs are reliable and cheap, 240z are the old skool.
Both cars are presmog, so when you decide to put that LS1/SR20DET into the 240z never have to worry about emissions.
Seriously though, 3k doesn't buy you a lot but if you can find a decent 240z, people will instantly know you have taste. Not sure how much you wrench on your car, as with all old cars no matter how reliable it is you better have a toolkit in the trunk.

i do a lot, so wrenching wouldnt be a problem. im going to UTI in the fall too, so heh. i've been looking into 240z's for about a year now. the only thing that concerns me about a car that old is RUST other than that..i love old school cars
