2005 Nissan 350z Grand Touring Convertible 2-door 3.5l on 2040-cars

US $21,000.00
Year:2005 Mileage:7300

Austin, Texas, United States

Austin, Texas, United States

This is the perfect car for your pleasure driving, (or perhaps for your college student at the University of Texas in Austin, if they deserve it).  The miles are so low, it is essentially a new car.  It is super clean, inside and out. 

When brand new, these are 48 k$ cars, but you can have this one for less than half.

The color is gorgeous: metallic sunset orange, similar to the Corvette "atomic orange" that they had several years ago.  The rear spoiler really makes the profile look good.  A six speed manual transmission hooked to the V-6, big Brembo brakes and great rubber make this an orange batmobile.  It is a pleasure to drive, and has classic lines (not like the overly street racer looking 370Zs

This car has always been garage kept under custom cover, and driven only on beautiful days.  It has been in the rain once.  Prior to my ownership, the owner only took it to weekend events and shows, and never washed it with a hose (likely only a bottle of windex).  Now I have indeed washed it a few times.  It has only been pampered.  I drive it ocassionally between New Braunfels and Austin on the tollroad.   Otherwise it sees only pleasure driving.

It starts smoothly, shifts smoothly, and drives like a dream.  The winner will get a wonderful car.

KellyBlueBook lists this car as $19.982, but you won't find another with this low mileage, even in more recent model years (like 350 Z for 2006, 2007, 2008, or 370Z for 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013)

2013 Nissan Juke Nismo is the runabout we've always wanted

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

The 2013 Nissan Juke Nismo has officially bowed at the 2013 Chicago Auto Show. Wearing a full body kit that serves up 37-percent more downforce than the standard front and rear fascias, the tuned hatchback also comes equipped with larger 18-inch wheels and a lowered suspension. Up front, LED daytime running lights join the festivities as well as contrasting side-view mirror covers and wider fender flares. Inside, buyers can expect to find a new sports steering wheel clad in Alcantara, as well as a set of Nismo seats stitched with red accents.
Nismo also cranked up the power on the Juke's turbocharged direct-injection 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine. The Juke Nismo delivers 197 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque, compared to the 188 hp and 177 lb-ft available in stock configuration. Buyers can have the engine with either a six-speed manual transmission or CVT gearbox, and the Juke Nismo can also be had with either all-wheel drive or front-wheel drive. Check out the full press release below for more information.

Daimler consulting with Ford about 3-cylinder engines

Mon, 27 May 2013

Soon enough, Ford will offer its 1.0-liter EcoBoost three-cylinder engine under the hood of the Fiesta here in the United States, building on the success of the small powerplant overseas. In fact, this success has caused other automakers to take notice, and according to Automotive News Europe, Daimler is now talking to Ford about this engine for use in its own products.
In other markets, Ford offers the 1.0-liter mill under the hood of the Focus (we had the chance to sample this package on our home turf), as well as the B-Max MPV. For this new collaboration, Daimler would use the turbo-three in the next-generation Smart ForTwo, as well as the Renault Twingo, which the German automaker will be collaborating on as part of its alliance with Renault-Nissan. Speaking to AN, a Mercedes-Benz engineer called the 1.0-liter mill an "interesting and impressive engine."
In exchange for details about the EcoBoost inline-three, Daimler will supply Ford with information regarding its Euro6 stratified lean-burn gasoline engine, which is found in the new E-Class sedan.

Chrysler, Nissan looking into claim that their cars are industry's most hackable

Sun, 10 Aug 2014

A pair of cyber security experts have awarded the ignominious title of most hackable vehicles on American roads to the 2014 Jeep Cherokee, 2014 Infiniti Q50 and 2015 Cadillac Escalade.
Charlie Miller and Chris Valasek are set to release a report at the Black Hat hacking conference in Las Vegas, Automotive News reports. The two men found the Jeep, Caddy and Q50 were easiest to hack based not on actual tests with the vehicles, but a detailed analysis of systems like Bluetooth and wireless internet access - basically, anything that'd allow a hacker to remotely gain access to the vehicle's systems.
Considering this lack of hands-on testing, the pair acknowledge that "most hackable" could be a relative term - they point out that the vehicles may actually be quite secure.
