1986 Nissan 300ZX-

This is a very nice car that belongs to a good friend of one of our clients. He has owned it for over 10 years, has recently retired and is making some adjustments in his life. One of those adjustments necessitates selling his well preserved 300ZX.

We recently replaced the driveshaft with a new unit including new U-joints. We also replaced the valve cover gaskets and oil sending unit. We gave the car a good look over and couldn't find anything else serious that it needs. On the test drive we did find that the front struts are bouncy but that's it. The car drives smoothly, doesn't pull left or right and brakes evenly. The clutch engages exactly where you would expect and the engine revs freely without any strange noises or fuss. It has excellent power. The Air Conditioning works very well too. The engine does not smoke and there are no unusual noises. Following is a link to a great place to buy new KYB front struts for $32.79 each:
Rock Auto

This car has Michelin tires with a lot of tread and the lack of any vibration when driving belies the quality Michelin continues to deliver with their tires. All the glass is in good condition, the windows roll up and down as they should. The T-tops are excellent too. All doors, releases and latches work as they should. All interior and exterior lights work and the headlamps raise and lower properly.

While the car is quite presentable as it sits, there are some simple things you could do yourself to really make the most of her. The driver's door panel has some small cuts at the top (see pictures) but those panels are available used here on Ebay for not much money. The rear carpeting is faded and could stand to be replaced and the steering wheel is showing a little age, another easy fix. Lastly, the car has been resprayed on the RF fender and right door at some point in the past due, apparently to some past parking lot shunt (There are no signs of damage to any inner structures.), so it could stand being re-done as the paint used must not have been up to Nissan standards. While that is being done, I would have the fronts of the side view mirrors resprayed as well. The current owner is afraid that if he did these simple repairs, he might not be willing to part with her, so these things will be left to the lucky winning bidder.

Except for the very sparse surface rust present in a couple of places, there is no rust through and the car is extremely solid. Here is a link to a Photo Bucket album that shows many more pictures including some of her underside:

The front seats are excellent. The cushioning is ample, they are multi-adjustable and the upholstery has no tears or rips. The dash has no cracks, all the gauges work and give positive feedback (Temperature runs normal and excellent oil pressure) and all the other interior panels are great.

I wouldn't hesitate to get in this car and drive it to California, its that good. Thank you for looking at this auction! Please let me know if you have any further questions or require any specific pictures.

Fisker stock trades halted as talks with Nissan collapse

Mon, Mar 25 2024

Fisker's talks with a large automaker for a potential deal have collapsed, it said on Monday amid growing uncertainty for the cash-strapped startup that last week paused electric-vehicle production. Trading in the shares of the company, which did not name the automaker with which it was in talks, has been halted pending an announcement. Fisker also said it will not be able to meet a closing condition related to its attempt to raise up to $150 million in funding by selling convertible notes after missing an interest payment. Separately, Fisker said it would ask investors to vote on a proposal for a reverse stock split at a shareholder meeting on April 24, as it looks to maintain compliance with the Nasdaq's listing norms. Reuters had reported earlier this month that Nissan was in advanced talks to invest in the company, however, earlier in the day, the Japanese automaker held an event in which it announced a long-term business plan, including its EV strategy, and said it was looking for partners in the United States. Raising funds has been hard for loss-making electric vehicle startups, which have little in way of revenue as they struggle to ramp up production and deliver to customers, as the companies battle stiff competition and a tough economy. The EV startup's shares have cratered this year, losing more than 90% of their value, after it flagged going concern risk in February and paused investments in future projects until it secured a partnership with an automaker. Fisker pivoted to a dealer-partner model earlier this year, after it delivered less than half of the vehicles it made in 2023 due to logistics issues. Earnings/Financials Fisker Nissan

This new Renault would make a great Nissan Maxima wagon

Thu, Apr 21 2016

A new Renault station wagon wouldn't ordinarily show up on our radar. But this one gets us thinking. It's the new Talisman Estate, and we can't help but wonder if it wouldn't make a good addition to Nissan's North American lineup. If you recognize the name, you may recall that Renault launched the Talisman sedan on the other side of the pond last summer. At the time, we noticed some striking similarities to the Maxima sedan we get here, though Nissan told us the two were unrelated. But that wouldn't necessarily stop the wagon from sporting a different badge on the nose and making the transatlantic journey to American showrooms. The long-roofed version of the Talisman measures 191 inches long making it only a little longer than the BMW 3 Series Sports Wagon we get here, while riding on the same 110-inch wheelbase. But where the Bimmer offers up to 53 cubic feet of cargo space, the Renault can fit nearly 60. It also boasts electronic dampers and four-wheel steering to keep it light on its toes, and offers a selection of four-cylinder gasoline and diesel engines ranging from 110 horsepower up to 200.

Nissan, Mitsubishi team up for $14,000 electric car

Fri, Aug 8 2014

Last November, the Renault-Nissan Alliance and Mitsubishi announced a partnership to build some tiny electric vehicles for the Japanese market. Well, the partnership is going to build more than that (like the Nissan Dayz, pictured above in Roox form, and the Mitsubishi eK wagon), but we're most interested in the upcoming plug-in results. Those results are not here yet, but we now know that the 50-50 joint venture is moving forward and that the first "kei car" EV from the project is now due in fiscal 2016, according to the Nikkei Asia Review. The makers of the popular Leaf and i-MiEV electric vehicles say that the new small EV will be the cheapest EV on the market when its released, potentially priced at 1.5 million yen (around $14,700 US). Currently, the i-MiEV is the cheapest EV option in Japan, with a 2.5-million yen starting price (just under $24,500 US) before incentives. Taking a good $10,000 of the purchase price is likely more than enough to counter the smaller size and, perhaps, more limited amenities.
