1990 Nissan 300zx Base Coupe 2-door 3.0l on 2040-cars
Littleton, Colorado, United States
Up for sale is my beautiful 1990 Nissan 300ZX 2+2 automatic.
This is a wonderful car that is a blast to drive and gets looks everywhere I
go. I hate to sell it but a new pair of twins in my life means that priorities
have to change. A brief history of the car: The car was purchased from the
original owner in 1998 from my Wife’s uncle. He passed it down to my brother in-law
in 2005. Unfortunately my wife’s uncle did not take very good care of the car’s
engine which forced my brother in-law to correct a few issues. He decided to
replace the engine with a JDM spec motor in an attempt to have two engines to
work with if needed. At the same time the car would be gone through and
anything that needed attention would be addressed. My brother in-law owned a
custom car shop at the time and all of the work was performed professionally in
his shop. At the time of the engine swap the car had just over 90K miles. In
the summer of 2006 the engine was replaced with an engine pulled from the front
clip of a similar year JDM Fairlady Z. The JDM motor had approximately 50-60K
miles on it. During the swap the new engine received a complete major tune-up
along with several major service items. Below is a list of all items and
services performed during the engine swap: 50-60K miles JDM NA engine swap After the engine swap the plan for the car was to turn the
car into a period correct 90s custom. The following parts were also installed
on the car: Set of staggered width IMPUL RS 16” wheels with new tires In addition to the performance parts several other items
have also been addressed: New weather strip around windows With all of the powertrain and chassis items sorted out the
only thing left is the body which unfortunately I cannot afford to update right
now. The body is in really good condition as is but a paint job would make the
car absolutely perfect. There a few small dings here and there and the front
bumper has a few scuffs. The paint is original and shows pretty good for a 20+
year old car. As you can see from the pictures the car looks great and can
certainly be driven as is. The interior is also in great shape. Everything
except for the radio is original and again shows really well for the age. All
gauges, A/C, lights, power windows, and locks work as they should. |

2013 Nissan Pathfinder: July-September 2013
Thu, 03 Oct 2013
This Nissan is the most in-demand long-term vehicle we've ever had.
They may not readily fall into the sweet spot of driving enthusiasts, but our year-long test of this Nissan is proving to be an object lesson in why crossovers are so popular - especially large ones like our three-row Pathfinder. In fact, it's been so busy that it's hardly been at a standstill long enough to pen an update, which is why this one is late. Simply put, this Nissan is the most in-demand long-term vehicle we've ever had, racking up more miles and more long-distance trips than any LT vehicle in the Autoblog stable.
Infiniti brand will finally make its debut in Japan, but not the name
Thu, 14 Nov 2013Nissan left the automotive media scratching its collective head when it announced that its Infiniti luxury brand would be renaming all of its vehicles, with cars wearing the Q designation and CUVs/SUVs wearing the QX badge. So the G Sedan became the Q50, and the G Coupe became the Q60. The QX56, meanwhile, became the QX80, and the FX crossover became the QX70. It is still thoroughly confusing nearly a year later.
Not content to confuse its US customers alone, Nissan will be fiddling with the name of one of its most revered Japanese-market models - the Skyline. Rebadged for the US as the Q50, and before that as the G Sedan/Coupe, the new Skyline will wear an Infiniti badge. What makes this truly confusing, though, is that the car won't be called the Infiniti Skyline, despite its badging. It won't even be called the Nissan Skyline, anymore. It's now just the Skyline. Apparently, Nissan thinks it can capitalize on the Skyline's link to the Japanese royal family (the Skyline was originally a product of Prince Motors, which provided vehicles for the Emperor and his family), by ditching any brand names and referring to it as its own model, according to Automotive News.
Now, confusion aside, there are things about Infiniti badging in Japan that make sense. Badging all the Nissans that eventually become Infinitis as Infinitis in the first place goes a long way to make the brand seem separate and distinct from its parent company. Speaking to AN, Infiniti's executive vice president of global product planning, Andy Palmer, puts it this way, "We have to treat Infiniti, if you will, in the same [way] that Volkswagen treats Audi. It's not a Nissan-plus. Infiniti has to stand head-to-head with any of those German competitors."
'Qashqai' so hard to pronounce even Nissan is poking fun at it
Mon, 14 Apr 2014In the US, there aren't a lot of vehicle names that are very difficult to pronounce. Maybe the Volkswagen Touareg might trip up a few people, but by and large, we've got it pretty easy. Our friends in Europe, though, have a bigger challenge, thanks to vehicles like the Nissan Qashqai. Yes, Qashqai.
Like the Touareg, the Qashqai draws its name from a nomadic people. While Nissan isn't making up words, then, it's still not an easy name to pronounce. Top Gear host Jeremy Clarkson routinely calls it a kumquat, for example. According to Nissan, though, it's pronounced "Cash'kai".
To get its point across as the second-gen Qashqai, the close cousin of the US market Rogue, prepares to launch in Australia, Nissan set up a little event at a coffee shop. Customers would place their orders, only to have the spelling of their names butchered rather badly. On the other side of the cup, there's a message from Nissan and the Qashqai.
