The opinions in this video are those of Netgear57 of [Collector Car Feed](https://collectorcarfeed.com/). This is not meant to shame or disrespect anyone but rather encourage people to do their research before buying the cheapest parts they can get or destroying a perfectly car just to stand out.

While this video focus on 240sx's the wisdom can be applied to any car and especially our 86's. 240sx's were the last slow Japanese car that was underwhelming in its day but now commands a pretty penny to buy a clean or unmodified 240.

86's are heading in that direction based on how many of them are heavily modified, not being properly maintained, or getting completely wrecked. This video is shared to provide an example of what 86's ownership might look like in the future once our generation of 86's is out of production, the whole line being changed drastically, or even discontinued.
