This auction is for a 1997 Nissan XE pick-up with 229,000 highway miles, auto transmission, ice cold a/c. Truck runs great, don't let the miles scare you.

Within the last year, the following parts have been replaced:

  • new radiator
  • water pump
  • all belts
  • starter
  • alternator
  • new front brake lines
  • calipers and pads (replaced 3,000 miles ago)
  • new plugs, wires, and cap
  • rear end fluid has been changed
  • transmission fluid and filter
  • has a K & N air filter
  • valve cover gasket

The bad:

  • Right front fender has some damage
  • front bumper is not straight
  • small hole on driver's side seat
  • right side over rear wheel well is rusted
  • rust hole on the inside of the bed

At times, the check engine light comes on, but goes off in a day or so. Also, at start up, it makes a rattle noise. I was told it was timing chain guides are worn.

Oil has been changed every 3,000 miles and gets 20-23 miles per gallon. Front tires have 25,000 miles, and rears are 80% worn.  For the age of the truck, it still runs well and has plenty of life left. The windows are tinted, it has a JVC CD/Apple IPod-ready in-dash deck with detachable faceplate, a remote start , and tonneau cover.

**Please note, the stereo, remote starter, and tonneau cover will only be included with truck if reserve is met.

Please let me know if you have any questions about the truck; it will be sold as-is with no warranty.

Nissan prices limited-edition 2014 GT-R Track Edition from $115,710*

Wed, 01 May 2013

Nissan has released its pricing for the model-year 2014 GT-R, including the new Track Edition of Godzilla. The 2014 Nissan GT-R Premium will now command an MSRP of $99,590, while the Black Edition will go for $109,300 and the new Track Edition will ask $115,710 (*not including a $1,000 destination and handling charge for all models).
Nissan calls the GT-R Track Edition its most exclusive model, which makes sense as it will be limited to just 150 examples for the US market. The competition-ready Track Edition gets Bilstein DampTronic shocks and revised spring rates; all chosen after more development work by Nissan engineers at the Nürburgring. (Good work, if you can get it.) A carbon fiber rear spoiler and six-spoke black wheels come with the package, as do blue-trimmed, high-grip front seats inside. To save weight, the car's rear seats have been deleted in this model.

Panoz and DeltaWing suing Nissan over BladeGlider concept

Mon, 02 Dec 2013

Similarity is bound to occur in an industry where most of the products follow the same basic formula. But once in a while a new design comes along that doesn't quite reinvent the wheel, but comes pretty damn close. The DeltaWing project was one such design - and Nissan, the car's designers allege, stole that design.
After the DeltaWing proposal was rejected by the IndyCar series, its creators took it to Le Mans and brought Nissan on board to supply the power. Nissan subsequently pulled out of the program and came out with the ZEOD RC hybrid racer (right), bearing a suspiciously similar design with an unusually narrow front track at the end of a long nose cone, and a wider track at the back. The Japanese automaker then displayed the BladeGlider concept (below, right) at the Tokyo Motor Show, envisioning a translation of the same formula into road-going form.
The similarity did not escape Don Panoz, who - after making sports and racing cars under his own name and founding the now-defunct American Le Mans Series - was a central figure in bringing the original DeltaWing to life. Now Panoz has filed a lawsuit against Nissan, soliciting the courts to issue a cease-and-desist order on both the ZEOD RC and BladeGlider projects, naming Nissan motorsport chief Darren Cox and Ben Bowlby (who defected to Nissan from the DeltaWing program) as part of the suit.

Nissan rowed the Note ashore [w/video]

Thu, 24 Oct 2013

Normally we wouldn't suggest trying to float your car on water, but Nissan has made some modifications to turn its new Versa Note hatchback into a makeshift rowing shell.
Nissan replaced the car's rear seats with a sliding rear rowing seat, modified the doors to open wider at 90 degrees and fitted a pair of oars. Most importantly, they put the whole thing on a floating platform to keep it from sinking into Eton Dorney Lake, the site of the 2012 Olympic rowing competitions in England (where the car is simply known as the Nissan Note).
Then they invited medal-winning competitive rowers Helen Glover, Sophie Hosking and Polly Swann to come along and row the thing, making use of the around-view monitor system to see where they were going. All in all it may not be quite as cool as the boats which Fiat made out of the 500 or Mini made out of its convertible, but it's still enough to float our boat. Check it out in the video clip and press release below and the image gallery above.
