1994 Nissan 300ZX convertible with 77k miles on it since new. Black on black leather with a 5 speed manual transmission. Naturally aspirated (not turbo) V6 engine. All OEM parts and never modified. The second owner of this car is selling it after nearly 20 years of ownership as the couple simplifies down to a single car. 

The convertible top is in perfect condition and all power seats, windows and all other electrics work properly.The engine and mechanicals are in good to excellent condition. The body shows the wear of the years with paint issues/chips in places, a few small dents and a driver side front fender that appears to have been repainted by the first owner. Interior is in good condition and leather is holding up well, but there are signs of wear and a discoloration on the passenger seat. The main belt may need to be replaced as there is a chirping sound on startup in colder weather, but it goes away as soon as the car has forward movement. Under heavy rain, a few drops of water will come in at the pivot joint where the roof gasket meets the window, but there are no holes or other leaks. The interior has squeaks and rattles as should be expected in a 20 year old convertible.

The car does have a manufacturer buyback on the car records, but the title itself is clean. The car was sold to the current owner by a Nissan dealership in California without either party, at the time, knowing that the car had a buyback on its records. Once the dealership found out they sold a car that should not have been sold, they contacted the owner to inform him of the situation. After reviewing the alternative car offered by the dealership and without knowing why the car was repurchased, he decided to keep the car. The dealership provided an extended warranty and covered any and all repairs for the first several years of ownership. The only issue that could be identified was the roof. The convertible top was replaced during this warranty period and we believe that the reason for the buyback was a perpetually leaky roof as described. The car has never had any further issues and, in nearly 20 years of ownership, has only ever needed normal maintenance and repairs. I'm happy to provide any interested buyers a full in-person inspection of the vehicle and accommodate for an inspection by a reputable mechanic of their choosing.

Car will not be shipped. Car must be picked up in/near San Diego, CA. Payment in cash, cashiers check preferred. Would prefer to finalize sale in-person to sign over title. All sales final and the car is offered as-is with no warranty.


I'm happy to answer any questions you may have as well as provide as much detail as possible about the vehicle condition.

Carlos Ghosn video: 'This is about conspiracy. This is about backstabbing'

Tue, Apr 9 2019

TOKYO — Nissan's former Chairman Carlos Ghosn maintained his innocence in a video released by his legal team Tuesday and accused some executives at the Japanese automaker of a "conspiracy" that led to his arrest on financial misconduct allegations. "The first message is that I'm innocent," said Ghosn, wearing a white shirt and dark jacket and speaking calmly in the nearly 10-minute video shown at the Foreign Correspondents' Club in Tokyo. "This is a conspiracy," he said. "This is not about specific events, this is not about, again, greed, this is not about dictatorship. This is about a plot. This is about conspiracy. This is about backstabbing." His lawyer Junichiro Hironaka said the video was prepared in case Ghosn was not able to speak at a news conference planned for Thursday. Ghosn was arrested last week while out on bail and remains at the Tokyo Detention Center. Ghosn said the executives behind the conspiracy were motivated by what he called "selfish fears," including what they saw as a merger with French alliance partner Renault SA. They mistook his leadership for greed and dictatorship, when he was the biggest defender of Nissan's autonomy, Ghosn said. He also said he was worried about Nissan, wondering whether those executives were really watching out for the company. Hironaka said a section of the video in which Ghosn mentioned names was removed on his legal advice. Nissan Motor Co., while declining to comment on the criminal case, has said an internal investigation has found that Ghosn falsified financial documents to under-report compensation, and that he used Nissan money for personal gain. "Nissan's internal investigation has uncovered substantial evidence of blatantly unethical conduct," company spokesman Nicholas Maxfield said when asked for comment on Ghosn's video. "The company's focus remains on addressing weaknesses in governance that enabled this misconduct." Ghosn's fourth arrest was on a fresh breach of trust allegation based on suspicion that payments from a Nissan subsidiary to an Oman dealership were diverted to a company effectively run by Ghosn. On Monday, Nissan Motor Co. shareholders voted to oust Ghosn from its board and to approve the appointment of French alliance partner Renault SA's Chairman Jean-Dominique Senard as Ghosn's replacement. Renault owns 43 percent of Nissan.

Recharge Wrap-up: Tesla Model S in landslide, Plug'n Drive wants EVs

Mon, Oct 26 2015

A woman and child survived a landslide in a Tesla Model S. The front of the car was severely damaged with the hood and front fascia badly crumpled. The rear hatch window glass caved in, but while the windshield was cracked, the safety glass held together. While in another vehicle, the occupants could have been crushed by the tree that landed on the car, the cabin structure of the Model S mostly withstood the pressure, saving the humans inside. It's not the typical situation most people think of when considering car safety, but it is a dramatic example of the protection the Model S offers.

Together the cars will drive a combined 400,000 kilometers (about 248,550 miles) emissions-free. The cars - a fleet of Renault Zoes, Nissan Leafs and Nissan e-NV200s - will be used as shuttles for the conference attendees. The Alliance will set up a network of 90 chargers for the event, powered by low-carbon electricity. The residual emissions will be offset through a UN carbon offsetting program.

The group says that adding electric power to more cars, "can make a significant contribution to GHG emission reductions in Ontario, while at the same time benefitting the Ontario economy." GHG are, of course, greenhouse gases. According to the group, there are currently more than 12,140 EVs in Canada. Read more in the press release below.
