Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"Failed Smog test. Probably because of one side of the engine having cylinders with low compression. Damaged front bumper, missing air intake cover. Dented front upper frame, and dented hood.Interior: Broken driver's side seat.Additional: Broken Antenna."

My Promise: When I originally got this car I got ripped off by a used car dealership. The engine had major oil leaks and broke down within a year. I won't lie or deceive anyone about the condition of the car. That being said, I wouldn't recommend this car to anyone that doesn't know about cars (i.e. this shouldn't be your first car). It's a beautiful car that must be worked on. You should be comfortable with more than just brake changes and tune ups. I can provide you via email a copy of the car manual if you don't have it yet.

Important information: The car did not pass smog test. A friend that studied mechanics performed a compression test on all six cylinders and determined that one of the the cylinders had low compression. Everything else works well. Good thread and quality tires. Good maintenance given to car. K&N Filters, new spark plugs,etc. Changed the front rotors and all brake pads 2 years ago.

Engine: The original engine was replaced at 189,000 miles for an imported engine. The timing belt, front and rear crankshaft seals were replaced. The old intake manifold was used (new gasket used of course) to comply with US smog specs. The clutch disk was also replaced.  The battery is also relatively new and the lower clutch cylinder was replaced because it was leaking.

Interior: Usual wear and tear but the driver's side seat tilts a little too much (the frame is broken. I took it to get it welded but they said they couldn't do it due to the location of the break). There is a tear on the driver's side door plastic. There is also significant wear on the shift stick cover and the steering wheel. The cloth seats have no tears.

About the exterior:The car has a damaged front bumper that will need replacement. The cover protecting the dual air intake is missing. The hood has some dents. The front part of the frame of the car some damage from when I hit a truck at 15 miles an hour. The truck had no scratches, but the Z needed the front sustained damage to front frame (showed in pictures). Besides that the rest of the car has scratches here and there but no major damage. The radio antenna is broken (dumb carwash!).

Reason for selling: My new job is 50+ miles away, I need an economy car or a Tesla.

The best thing about this car: I've never raced but I did once on my younger days take this car at 140+ without a problem. At 222 hp and 198 ft lb of torque it has the power to accelerate quickly and go through hills without a problem. The tires and hard suspension means you can go 80+ and have good solid control (unlike the tiny honda I drive now). It also features 4 wheel disc brakes and an advanced coil ignition for its time.

The worst about this car: The car has a lot of small tubes (vacuum) that will make it hard to put back together if you remove the intake manifold.

Pricing: Keep in mind that on KBB.com the "Fair" condition is $3620 and the "Good" condition is $4320. It would be fair to say that this car falls somewhere in between.

Nissan to build Golf-fighter in Spain

Thu, 07 Feb 2013

Nissan hasn't had a proper European entry in the ridiculously popular compact hatchback segment since it stopped offering its somewhat staid and uninspiring Almera (above) in 2006. According to Automotive News Europe, the new machine, which will not be called Almera, will be marketed against the Volkswagen Golf and Ford Focus - two extremely popular models in Europe. Production is slated to begin in July of 2014.
The new compact will be built in Barcelona, Spain, at the factory that currently builds the Pathfinder, Navara pickup and NV200 commercial van. An investment of $178 million will be made to assemble the compact car, and an additional $27 million will go to the plant to create more trucks and transmissions for electric vehicles.
The decision to invest in Spain comes after the automaker successfully renegotiated contracts with local unions. Similar talks are underway in France, where Nissan partner Renault is based, but as of yet no new agreements have been struck. Feel free to browse through the official press release below.

2023 Japan Mobility Show Mega Photo Gallery: All the highlights and reveals from Tokyo

Fri, Oct 27 2023

The 2023 Japan Mobility Show managed to serve up a surprise heap of exciting and futuristic designs and production reveals. Our staff was on the ground in Tokyo for this year's show, where we captured not just all of the latest automotive trends, but some genuinely weird and fascinating stuff.  Browse: Some Delightful Oddities of the 2023 Japan Mobility Show But on to the cars. This year's show featured introductions from Daihatsu, Honda, Lexus, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Subaru, Suzuki and Toyota. Some are weird; some are wild; most are probably destined to change significantly before production or merely fade into the void with the rest of the industry's vaporware, but if even a few of these make it to showrooms, we'll consider it a win. Scroll on down for our live galleries of each of the show's major debuts (and cars we're only now seeing in person for the first time).

Mercedes considering Mexico for CLA production

Tue, 16 Jul 2013

Would you buy a Mercedes-Benz if it were made in Mexico? That's what the German outfit is wondering, as it considers localizing production of the its new budget model at a factory operated by Nissan, of which the automaker is a joint-venture partner.
According to a report from Automotive News, moving production of American-spec CLAs from Hungary to Mexico would protect Mercedes from currency fluctuations. "Mexico is the best location for the United States," Daimler Chairman Dieter Zetsche told AN. The CLA is also expected to become the brand's volume model in the US market, which makes North American production a logical move.
In the event that Mercedes approves the plan, Nissan would expand the capabilities at its Aguascalientes, Mexico plant, allowing production to begin in 2018.
