2003 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V in Aztec Red 130,500 miles
Features: 2.5 liter 4-cylinder engine with 175 hp from the factory Six-speed manual transmission 17" factory wheels Sport-tuned suspension Keyless entry Power windows and locks Sunroof Race-inspired seats New brakes Air conditioning recharged One owner Clear MD title in hand I bought this car new from South Point Nissan in Austin, Texas on 7/28/03. I used it as my commuter vehicle for the better part of ten years until getting something larger last fall. Since then I've driven it to work an average of once per week. It is in good condition, though it is an older car, shows some wear, and has typical paint chips and maintenance needs. Interior is in good shape as well. It has generally been a very reliable daily driver for me and is a blast to drive. I really enjoy driving this car. It has good power and responsiveness and corners nicely. The six speed manual is a ton of fun. I changed the oil with Mobil 1 synthetic every 4,000 miles until the car reached 100k miles and since then I've changed it every 5,000 miles. This car has never seen anything other than a Nissan oil filter, and got a new one with every oil change. On 6/6/05 while I was driving to work (in Texas), a lady in the lane to my left going the same direction as me swerved into my lane to avoid someone crossing over the center line into her lane. The car sustained body damage to the left front and also on the right side as the car careened into the safety rail on that side. I took the car back to the dealership and it had about $4,500 worth of bodywork repairs done. Since then I've driven the car over 100k miles and while the front bumper sags a bit, the accident didn't adversely impact the way the car drives and you generally can't tell it was in an accident. I drove the car up when we moved to Maryland in mid-2006 and it has been up here since, after spending its first three years in Central Texas. The car has been modestly modified for performance, fuel economy, and reliability. In August of 2004 I bought and installed a Hotshot header (exhaust manifold). These cars are known to have trouble with the stock exhaust manifold catalytic converter breaking up and being sucked into the engine which causes catastrophic engine failure. Changing to the aftermarket header alleviated that risk altogether. In 2013 the Hotshot header rusted out around the bottom midpipe flange and I purchased a like-new NISMO header and installed it. The O2 sensor that was located inside the stock manifold has been relocated behind the cat in the midpipe using a DC sports extender harness that uses the stock car and sensor harnesses (no wires were cut) and I replaced the O2 sensor when I installed the NISMO header. The car has passed MD state emissions inspection every other year, as required. In December of 2004 I bought and installed an aftermarket Stromung stainless steel exhaust. The Stromung is a top quality piece with a nice exhaust note, and a highly desired part. I also installed an AEM cold air intake and solid motor mount inserts that eliminate "wheel hop" when the front wheels spin. I installed a lightened crank pulley as well. Other than those external engine mods the car is largely stock. Recent maintenance includes: New brake rotors and ceramic pads and bled the brakes in April of 2014. In August of 2013 I replaced the battery. In the winter of early 2013 as I was driving home from work the serpentine belt broke. I took the car to the Nissan dealer and they replaced the belt as well as drained the cooling system and replaced with new coolant. In December of 2012 when the car had 120k miles on it, I had new Bridgestone Potenza RE970 ultra high performance all weather tires installed on the car at Costco. These tires are very highly rated by TireRack and I've found them to handle really well even in wet weather with good ride quality. The tires were rotated at 127,500 miles and now have about 10k miles on them. In the summer of 2012 an air conditioning line ruptured and the A/C lost function. I took the car to the Nissan dealer, where they replaced the hard line and re-charged the A/C. The air conditioning cools as good as new now. The OEM headlights had become pretty clouded and one of the driving lights didn't function so this spring I replaced them with new TYR complete headlamp assemblies. I also had a brake light out so last month I replaced both brake lamp bulbs in the rear. The car is over 10 years old and has over 100k miles on it so it isn't perfect. The front end has paint chips, particularly on the hood. The windshield has minor chips and scratches typical of a car this age. There is a small, barely noticeable dent on the driver's side rear quarter panel that has been there since the day my son was born (long story). The driver's side door has some bubbling on the front edge down low which indicates rust underneath (pictured). Besides that the car doesn't show obvious signs of rust. The stock radio functions fine but the CD player ate the last CD I put in it, so I'd assume that doesn't work. Overall the car has served me very well and should have a lot of good years left in it with continued diligent care. As I said, it is great fun to drive. Blue Book value for "good" (defined as better/worse than 50% of the used cars out there) condition is $3,250. This is a NO RESERVE auction and the car will go to the winning bidder at the end of the auction. Car is located in Maryland and I have clear title in hand. Car is described accurately herein but is for sale as-is, where-is. I am willing to work with the buyer's chosen transporter, but buyer is responsible for any and all shipping fees. $500 deposit due via Paypal within 24 hours of the end of the auction. The balance is to be paid in cash at the time the vehicle is collected. |

Nissan gives a better look at its Vision Gran Turismo concept
Wed, 11 Jun 2014Just the other day, Nissan released an image showing all of its cars you can drive in Gran Turismo, with one little mystery hiding in the bottom right corner: a draped shape with the date June 10, 2014 - suggesting that it would reveal its Vision Gran Turismo on that date. Well, if you look at that calendar you'll realize that June 10 came and went yesterday, and Nissan didn't reveal the car.
As it turns out, what the folks at Nissan meant when they indicated June 10 was that they'd release the next teaser on that date, and that's what we have here. The teaser hints at one menacing-looking futuristic chunk of virtual performance meta, but "the next chapter" won't be revealed until next week on Monday, June 16. At that point we hope Nissan will actually reveal the full thing and not another teaser, but one way or another the finished product is expected to be present in the flesh (or sheet metal) for the Goodwood Festival of Speed at the end of the month.
2013 Nissan NV200
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Moving is not fun. On the scale of adult activities, it ranks somewhere between taxes and jury duty. Boxes need to be loaded, furniture needs to be lifted and the entire affair is typically fueled by a combination of pizza, beer and pain killers (a combo my friends affectionately refer to as "moving fuel"). It's not fun, and it's rarely easy.
While it doesn't make the activity any more enjoyable, having the right vehicle for the job is the difference between loading and unloading half a dozen times and doing it once or twice. When taken as a whole, a proper moving van can shave hours off a day of labor, not to mention untold years of physical and mental stress for those who must take to their wheels every day.
That truism was borne out once again when I borrowed a loaded Nissan NV200 SV to help my girlfriend move into her new house. The little Nissan was a comfortable and able companion throughout the day, managing everything from a mattress and box springs to countless boxes of clothes, dishes and other necessities. Throughout the day, the NV impressed not just with the amount of stuff it could fit in its cavernous back end, but with the features it had to make moving anything easier.
Nissan working on something radical for Le Mans
Tue, 17 Dec 2013With Porsche joining Audi and Toyota at the front of the LMP1 grid at Le Mans next year, Nissan is the next to be throwing its hat (and considerable R&D budget) into the proverbial ring. But only if it's allowed to do something radically different, according to the latest report in Car magazine.
Just what that means remains to be seen, but Nissan is reportedly in active discussions with the ACO (the body that governs the race) to see how far it can stretch the regulations. The ACO has taken an intriguingly different approach to equalizing performance, mandating the maximum amount of energy that can be used per lap instead of telling teams what kind of engines they can use. That's how Porsche is entering with a four-cylinder engine, Toyota with a V8 and Audi with a diesel six. But when it comes to the shape of the car itself, the rules are considerably more restrictive.
Unfortunately the rules would prohibit Nissan fielding the ZEOD RC (with its narrow front track) in the LMP1 class, relegating it instead to the Garage 56 slot for experimental racers (which the DeltaWing filled before). And the realities of endurance racing would effectively prohibit anyone from fielding an all-electric racer. Within those confines, though, Nissan is eager to find enough wiggle room to make something both visually and technically different from other LMPs. And if the ACO won't let it do so at Le Mans, it could turn to another race or series (like the Nürburgring 24) that would.
