This car has no radio other than the sweet, sweet sound of a twin-turbo drive train. (Where did you think those gauges were installed? It is more stealthy, and desirable, trust me.)

This car ain't no garage queen. Nope.

This car runs and drives like a champion because it is one, and I have the time slips from Sacramento Raceway to prove it (14.1 seconds @ 13 PSI, currently running 15 PSI). This car is also an excellent platform for other motorsports, or will suffice as an excellent GT car (as it was intended); whatever your path, in driving this car, you will experience enjoyment.

The car is ready to be painted the color of your dreams (currently painted flat-white with black accents).

The original seats are ready to be restored or refinished in the fashion of your choosing. If fact, the interior, though cared for, does look appropriate for a car of this vintage.

I have a stack of paperwork of the amount of money I have in the car, and my mechanic rents a room from me, so he can tell you about the long hours he's spent setting up the car, and I can tell you about the bills. -- So, I know what it costs to buy and own these cars. This is an original twin turbo, first year of a limited production, with a clean title, it is completely sound mechanically, it has the real transmission (lol @ automatics), and it comes with all the goodies. (Working automatic climate control? Yup.)

WHY AM I SELLING?
I have the title, but the previous owner didn't smog it. So, this car is stuck in smog limbo, meaning you cannot transfer the title until you smog the car (EDIT: NOT A PROBLEM IF YOU'RE OUT OF STATE). I did everything I could to get it to pass, but I couldn't, so I built the car to run a couple of times down the strip at the Speedway. Now I'm tired of this smog nonsense (I'm still trying to find a smog guy that'll hook me up...) and I want a car that I can street legally (EDIT: THE TAGS ARE STILL GOOD), something preferably pre-smog (like a 240z). (That's what I get for being new to California's smog laws).

The first 11,000 takes the car.

CAR SOLD AS-IS. NO WARRANTY.

Test drive available with the cash in hand. Otherwise, I'll be the one driving. And yes, we can run it at Sacramento Speedway if it'll make you happy. You break it, you buy it.

2014 Nissan Serena offers big flexibility in a tidy package

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

In America, Nissan attempts to slake our kinschlepping needs with its slow-selling Quest minivan, but in Japan, where consumers seem a lot less reluctant to buy MPVs, there are a lot more models for every size family and budget. Nissan itself offers no fewer than six such minivans, including the popular Serena seen here.
Technically a mid-cycle facelift, this new Serena continues to offer seating for up to eight people with a gas-only or mild hybrid driveline delivering power to either the front or all four wheels. This Tokyo Motor Show reveal takes that familiar package and lends it a freshened look, complete with a revamped front fascia with less chrome frosting, optional LED headlamps, new LED taillamps and new alloy wheel patterns. In addition, the Serena receives new active safety technology, including lane departure warning systems, Around View Monitor with Moving Option Detection, Driver Attention Alert, and so on.
With only a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a continuously variable transmission, you might expect the Serena to be smaller than today's American minivans, and you'd be right - it's roughly the size of a short-wheelbase Gen III Dodge Caravan, making its seating capacity particularly impressive. Said another way, the Serena is likely to stay forbidden fruit, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it in our gallery.

Infiniti moves to trademark Eau Rouge

Sun, 24 Aug 2014

With Formula One taking to Belgium and the famous Spa-Francorchamps circuit this weekend - boasting a reputation as one of the most beautiful courses on the calendar - all eyes will likely be on the tricky Eau Rouge corner, which challenges drivers' high-speed car control over a rolling, tree-lined hill. Infiniti played on the turn's iconic legacy for its ruby red Q50 Eau Rouge concept, and now the brand hopes to trademark the famous racing name so it can keep using it for a potential production version.
In January, the company filed for a trademark on Eau Rouge for "Automobiles and their structural parts; Fuel cell automobiles and their structural parts; Concept cars" with the US Patent and Trademark Office. According to Bloomberg, the application is still under consideration and not yet a guarantee. It's possible that the track could attempt to block the automaker from earning rights to the name. Alternatively, a trademark lawyer tells Bloomberg that the two of them could also strike a deal where Infiniti would pay a small amount for each car sold bearing the title, which could give Spa a bit of extra money in the bank.
Regardless of the name, a vehicle like the Eau Rouge is something enthusiasts have been wanting for years. It combines a modified, 560-horsepower version of the engine from the Nissan GT-R into a four-door sedan covered in aggressive, carbon fiber aerodynamic parts.

Nissan recalling more than 1M vehicles for airbags that may fail to deploy

Wed, 26 Mar 2014

Nissan and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have issued a recall for 989,701 vehicles in the US due to an issue with their passenger-side airbag systems. Affected Nissan models include the Altima, Leaf, Pathfinder and Sentra from the 2013 and 2014 model years, and 2013 NV200 taxis. Affected Infiniti models include the 2013 JX35 and 2014 Q50 and QX60 utility vehicles.
Reuters is reporting that a total of 1,053,479 vehicles are included in the recall globally, with about 60,000 of the affected vehicles having been sold in Canada.
The fault apparently lies in something called the occupant classification system, which may, in the recalled vehicles, incorrectly classify the passenger seat as empty when it is in fact occupied by an adult. When the system fails to recognize the passenger, the passenger-side airbag may deactivate, and could therefore fail to deploy in the event of a crash.
