INSPECTED, dependable car owned by my family almost since it rolled off the assembly line. It was just inspected by a licensed mechanic through the state inspection program, so you can take the certificate straight to the Maryland DMV/MVA and they'll issue you plates on the spot.

It's still great on gas - at purchase it was 26mpg highway and gets very close to that now. I also tested for fluid drips and there are none. This is a great car. 

SHIPPING: Buyer can take possession from my house in zip 20770, or I can deliver to your house within a 50 mile radius at $2 per mile. 

Since my family bought it, it's been well maintained, no accidents, and has a number of recent improvements (such as tires). I rate it as good condition and attempt to expand on that below:

Driving and drive train: Runs perfectly, starts every time (on the first time - even in the cold), stops great, accelerates great, cruise control works great, turns great, shifts gears great, and moves in reverse great, MD emmissions passed (most areas have identical standards). In this category, I'd rate it as "excellent" condition.

Lights, electrical, and heat/AC: Great sounding factory stereo, A/C works great, all speakers operational, heat works great, all lamps 100% functional, power windows operate perfectly, headlight lenses were recently polished, all doors lock, power locks work perfectly, no blown fuses or short circuits, recent new battery, dash lighting works great with no warning lights active, LCD display on radio needs repair, radio antenna needs repair but gets good reception, stereo is MP3-player compatible either through an FM transmitter. In this category, I'd rate it as "good" condition.

Interior: No heavy stains, no torn upholstery, non smoking family, no heavy wear spots, no hairspray or grease stains, no water leaks, no strange smells, shiny dashboard, no debris or junk, center console functions on temporary hinge. In this category, I'd rate it as "good" condition.

Paint and body: Inspected for rust and found none, most panels are in great condition but some have scratches in the clearcoat (can be rubbed out), front bumper has small marks and normal wear, rear quarter panel has minor bend, rear bumper has normal wear, drivers door has moderate dent, small dings and scratches in a few places, trunk and roof need clearcoat. In this category, I'd rate it as "fair" condition.

Other: Wipers just replaced, tires recently replaced, no glass damage or cracks, drivers sun visor needs repair but functions, trunk and hood latches work well, parking brake well adjusted. Overall I rate the vehicle "good" condition.

Nissan's Le Mans-bound ZEOD RC electric racecar nearing completion [w/video]

Sun, 01 Sep 2013

Nissan is working away on its ZEOD RC (Zero Emission On Demand Racing Car) which is still on pace for a Le Mans arrival in 2014. As of right now, the DeltaWing-shaped car's carbon-fiber tub and chassis have been completed. The next step will be installing the twin electric motors and fitting the seat of driver and GT Academy winner Lucas Ordóñez. If the current schedule sticks, the zero-emissions racer will hit a UK track for test laps in September.
But while those initial shakedown laps will be under full electric power, it's unclear whether the setup fielded in the UK will survive until Le Mans. Nissan itself says that it will be testing a number of "electrified" drivetrains ahead of the 2014 24 Hours of Le Mans, which is a significant departure from race car design - usually, the teams know what's powering their car before they start building it.
"Just developing a single powertrain option in only 12 months would be a mammoth task but we're looking to carefully examine a number of options to ascertain which will be best suited for Le Mans," said Darren Cox, Nissan's global motorsport director. Take a look below for a video and press release from Nissan documenting the ZEOD RC's build process.

Nissan recalls over 120,000 Altimas due to... spare tire inflation?!

Mon, 29 Apr 2013

A pressure regulator that over- or underinflated spare tires for five days earlier this year has led to a recall of 123,308 units of the 2013 Nissan Altima. Sedans that were manufactured from March 21-26 are those possibly affected by the temporary tire snafu, the recall for which will begin on May 3.
Those notified of the issue can take their sedans to their local Nissan dealer, who will check the tire pressure and correct it if necessary, but we imagine owners can probably just whip out a tire gauge to check and adjust the inflation for themselves. Should you need it, there's an official notice from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with a few more details.

Nissan Pathfinder, Infiniti JX in transmission safety probe

Thu, 05 Sep 2013

Nissan may be forced to recall 110,000 Pathfinder and Infiniti JX35 crossovers, due to a number of customer complaints. Consumers report suddenly losing power, with repair facilities blaming the issue on faulty transmission cooler line connections. Both the Pathfinder and JX35 use a continuously variable transmission. As of right now, the only vehicles being investigated are from model year 2013.
Nissan has been cooperating with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, according to a report from Reuters, and it has developed a fix for the affected vehicles. It's not clear whether this will develop into a full-blown recall, as there have been no known cases of injuries or crashes. But with a potential 110,000 vehicles prone to sudden power loss, a recall seems to be a likely outcome.
