Up for auction is a 1993 Nissan 240 SX SE 2 Door Hatchback. This car has 211,300 miles. This car has numerous issues however it does have several redeeming features that will make this a popular "project" or fix-up car. It comes with a clear, clean title. The car was driven by a single owner and was well maintained as far as changing of belts, hoses, radiator, timing belt, and regular oil changes. The factory radio was replaced in 2004 with a Kenwood single disc stereo with remote control and all 4 speakers work (one is newly replaced) . In addition it has a working Kenwood 5 disc CD changer in the trunk with remote. The engine runs good (quiet and smooth) no knocks or pings. It does not "burn oil" visibly but does go through about 2-3 quarts per 5000 miles. With its regular oil changes present this presented no issues. The injectors were replaced about 4 years ago and serpemtine belts and a new clutch with flywheel were installed 11/2011 at 204,000 miles. Struts were replaced in late 2008 and 2009 at 188,000 miles. The interior seats are gray cloth and have no tears just normal "stretching" of the cloth. The dashboard is cracked and driver's door has a small crack. The air conditioning works well and it is smoke free. This car drove well and still was getting about 25-30 mpg on the highway.
Now for the downside and where the "work" comes in. This car was rearended in an accident and needs rear bumper work. The spoiler is attached but leaks. The trunk has leaked to some degree over the past couple years. It has slight front end damage however the hood still opens and closes fine. It has multiple dinks and small dents under the drivers door and front left fender. The paint is the classic burgundy red, has normal fade, and there is some window trim peeling occuring. So overall there is some bodywork necessary to get it back in shape. The main drawback with this car was the damage it recently sustained as it was inadvertently driven straight over a median curb. All 4 tires are now flat so it will need to be towed on a flat back wrecker. It appears the front right steering tie rod broke leaving the front right wheel with no way of turning. The rear axle appears to be shifted back on its axis a little as well. No mechanic looked at the damage so no assesment has been made as to the severity of the damage. Three of the alloy rims did not sustain damage but show normal wear . The front right rim will more than likely need to be replaced. I had a great run with this car and it served me well. I know these are popular fixer-uppers these days and despite the bodywork and driveability issues, it does have a lot of salvageable parts and a good engine. This is being sold as-is whereis with no guarantees or warranties. Shipping is to be paid by driver unless you are local and can pick it up. Payment is due within 3 days of the close of auction. A Paypal deposit of $200 will be due at the close of the auction as a deposit until transaction closes. Thank you for looking and I welcome your bid if you can make this car or it's parts work for you.

Recharge Wrap-up: Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV Finishes AXCR, Nissan Leafs drive 528 million collective miles
Wed, Aug 20 2014The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has successfully completed the Asia Cross Country Rally 2014. The plug-in Mitsu finished first in the EV class, and 14th overall, clocking in at 19 hours, 17 minutes and 12 seconds. For its second year in the competition, the Outlander PHEV used a new suspension with more ground clearance to help it tackle the race's treacherous terrain. Besides the glory of taking on the challenging competition, the rally helped Mitsubishi gather valuable data for EV development. The race took place over 1,367 miles of varied terrain from Thailand to Cambodia. Read more at Hybrid Cars, or visit Mitsubishi UK's Facebook page. Nissan Leaf drivers have driven more than 528 million miles worldwide. That accounts for a reduction of 150,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions since the EV's 2010 launch. Nissan projects that Leaf drivers will surpass a collective 1 billion electric kilometers (621 million miles) by January 2015, or perhaps even sooner if sales keep increasing. The mileage data was collected through the car's CarWings telemetry.

Whether it's battery-electric, hybrid, or plug-in hybrid, electrons will be doing their share to get the well-heeled from place to place. According to an article at The Sydney Morning Herald, PHEVs are "the most promising option." The BMW i8 is a fine example, as is the Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid, and Audi and Mercedes-Benz have plug-in plans of their own. Lexus, not so much. Read more at The Sydney Morning Herald. PGA golfer Hunter Mahan has taken delivery of a BMW i3 he won by scoring a hole-in-one. BMW offered a free, all-electric i3 to the first player to score a hole-in-one in the 2013 BMW Championship at Conway Farms Golf Club, which Mahan did on the 17th hole. The BMW Championship raised money for Evans Scholars Foundation. BMW Hole-in-One Scholar Melyzjah Smith, who was awarded a full four-year college tuition and housing scholarship in honor of Mahan's slick shot, was on hand to meet the golfer as he received his i3.

Nissan's big price cuts threatening others' profits
Mon, 24 Jun 2013Bloomberg reports Nissan may be keeping the competition up at night even more than normal. The Japanese automaker recently cut prices on seven of its models and bolstered incentive offerings in an attempt to gain market share in the US, and the strategy is working. Last month saw the company's sales leap by 25 percent, which is nearly triple the industry average. Nissan is currently taking advantage of the weak yen - Japanese currency has fallen by 15 percent against the dollar, which has given the automaker around $1,500 per car to use to either add features or cut prices. Some analysts are calling the policy "scorched earth."
Meanwhile, American automakers like Ford, General Motors and Chrysler are doing their best to keep from sliding back into old bad habits. The Detroit Three have steadily moved away from a discount and incentive strategy to bring in new buyers since the 2009 recession. Those short-sighted tactics helped paved the way for bankruptcy at both GM and Chrysler. As Bloomberg reports, the resolve to stay away from big discounts may falter if Toyota begins using similar tactics.
Nissan GT-R takes a bloody whack at supercar rivals in fake ads
Mon, 23 Jun 2014A big part of what makes a supercar super is how it makes you feel, but the performance stats and bragging rights are undeniably a big part of the equation as well. Which means you can't ignore the fact that, even with its price ever escalating, the Nissan GT-R makes minced meat out of European exotics costing twice or three times as much.
That's the inspiration for this trio of fake ads from photographer Tim Kent. In this mock campaign, Kent has depicted the GT-R as a butcher's knife and the European exotics as pieces of slaughtered meat. Ferrari is symbolized by a package of horse meat, Porsche by a pack of sausages and Lamborghini as a pair of, um... "prairie oysters".
Of course the ads are never going to run anywhere, and if you're squeamish (or vegetarian) we wouldn't suggest looking at them in close proximity to your lunch. But we have to admit they're creative, and effective.
