2009 Nissan Gt-r on 2040-cars
Jupiter, Florida, United States
Please contact me at : mathaperro@juno.com .
This GT-R, car #67, was the first GT-R to run and finish the Gumball 3000. That event took place in May 2009 from
L.A. to Miami.
Preserving that special part of the car’s history, this GT-R still retains the Gumball 3000 event decals and the
custom electronics that were installed to avoid the “state revenue collectors” during the “rally.”
Only three teams received awards in 2009. This GT-R and the drivers, were awarded “Best Navigators.” A
laser-engraved “Gumball 3000” Macbook 5,1 was presented to us at the award ceremony. The Gumball 3000 Macbook,
along with some new, unworn Gumball 3000 apparel (T-shirts and baseball caps), is included in the purchase of this
GT-R.
Here are what I'd consider to be the highlights of this car:
One owner - 2009 Nissan GT-R Premium.
Titanium over Black. Mint condition!
Purchased new in September 2008. Never abused. Never “launched.”
Always stored in climate controlled facility.
Clear title. No accidents. No curb rash on the wheels. No repaints.
Original window sticker in perfect condition, owner’s manual, warranty books and keys.
Always serviced at the Nissan dealer by trained GT-R technicians. Have all service receipts.
New Bridgestone run flat tires – with a couple hundred miles on them.
Original brakes (and dealer says the car doesn’t need new ones yet - how's that for a pampered life?)
100% stock, unmodified drivetrain
OEM JDM clear front-side marker lights – installed (original amber lights included)
OEM JDM clear rear market lights – included (not installed – didn’t want to remove rear bumper)
17,552 miles on the odometer (3,500 of those miles were racked up during the May 2009 Gumball 3000 rally
event).
The car’s custom electronics package (which helped to avoid even a single traffic citation - since new), was
installed by the artisans at Technicar in West Palm Beach, and includes:
Escort Passport 9500ci, surgically cut into rear-view mirror bezel and dash (see picture)
Front and rear laser jammers
Brake light flasher & disable switch
GPS-computer inhibit switch (allows co-pilot to update NAV while car in motion)
Remote CB radio with detachable antenna
Uniden Police band scanner
Upgraded iPod interface
This GT-R has been part of the Styles Collection from new and is currently on display at our automotive museum in
South Florida.
We're die-hard collector of ‘67-‘73 American and 1990’s Japanese muscle and would entertain trades. Right now
we are looking for a low-mileage, unmodified ‘93-‘98 MKIV Supra Turbo 6-speed and a ’97-’05 first-gen Acura
NSX.

Nissan Leaf's lead over Renault Zoe narrows in Europe
Wed, Jul 20 2016The Nissan Leaf has seen its sales steadily decline in the US for a while now. Here, its been eclipsed by the second-generation Chevrolet Volt extended-range plug-in while people await the next-generation version of the all-electric Leaf. The EV may be starting to receive a similar response across the Pond. While the Leaf remains Europe's biggest-selling EV, that lead is eroding, as sales of the Renault Zoe are catching up, according to the European Alternative Fuels Observatory (EAFO). It's a good thing Nissan and Renault are sister companies. Through May, Nissan sold about 9,500 Leaf vehicles in Europe. The good news is that number is up 37 percent from a year earlier. There's disconcerting news, too, and that is that the Renault Zoe's sales have surged 60 percent this year to almost 9,400 units. So, for all we know, the Zoe may have caught up with the Leaf last month. Still, both models are outpacing demand for the Tesla Model S and Volkswagen e-Golf: the former's sales are little-changed this year, while the latter model's sales have dropped 34 percent. The BMW i3, Kia Soul EV, and Mercedes-Benz B250e all have had higher sales this year. As for plug-in hybrids, the Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV has maintained its substantial European lead, almost doubling sales of the Volkswagen Golf GTE and totaling almost 9,400 units sold through May. Meanwhile, the new Volvo XC90 PHEV has leapfrogged models such as the Volkswagen Passat GTE, Mercedes-Benz C350e, and Audi A3 e-Tron into third place behind the Mitsubishi and VW. Here in the US, Nissan Leaf sales through June fell 41 percent from a year earlier to about 5,800 units, while Chevrolet Volt sales have surged 75 percent to 9,808 units.

Nissan Safari police truck a sort of A-Team van from Japan
Wed, 28 May 2014Television today might be at one the best points in the medium's history with shows like Mad Men, Louie, True Detective and streaming offerings like House of Cards. However, none of those come close to the number of car chases and explosions of '70s and '80s offerings like Charlie's Angels, The A-Team or The Dukes of Hazard. Apparently, this prevalence of action at the time wasn't just an American phenomenon. In Japan, a show called Seibu Keisatsu fulfilled the nation's need for shootouts and stunts.
Nissan was a major sponsor of the show, and therefore the brand's vehicles were used extensively, including a highly modified Nissan Safari SUV (also known as the Nissan Patrol), pictured above. In the show's lore, it was equipped with radar, a camera and a fire extinguisher capable of turning over a car. The series ran 236 episodes from 1979 to 1984, and with the trailer below as indication, that allowed time for plenty of car jumps and explosions.
The entire Seibu Keisatsu series is now coming out in Japan on DVD and Blu-Ray packed in a fake gun case. The trailer below shows off some of the action of the series. It all starts out normal enough, but about a minute into the video there are all sorts of Nissans jumping and crashing. Plus, there is a guy on fire in a shootout. This show looks like some seriously cheesy fun. Scroll down to get a taste of it.
Should you buy an EV?
Mon, Aug 17 2015Gas prices are hitting the skids and EVs are following suit; nearly every model in today's market has experienced a double-digit decline in sales – with the always notable exception of the Tesla Model S. Some EVs are in the last year of their generation while others have been half-heartedly designed and engineered to fulfill federal government quotas. The two non-Tesla front runners, the Chevy Volt and Nissan Leaf, are in the unfortunate position of offering customers "2015" vehicles that were designed with 2011 in mind. Yet there's plenty of love in the air. Nissan has built over 180,000 Leafs worldwide, and chances are you will be seeing a second electric vehicle accompanying the Leaf when the new generation is released in the coming months. The Chevy Volt now offers the highest customer satisfaction out of any car or truck sold in North America. Forget the luxury cars, the sports cars, the family trucksters, and even the rolling flagship that guides Tesla's jaw dropping valuation on Wall Street. You want happy with your EV? The brand that's rocking the segment right now is Chevy. It's been doing so for a while. The EV market is poised to become a lot more sophisticated over the next 18 months with the three leading manufacturers – Tesla, General Motors, and Nissan – launching five brand new models along with no fewer than 16 other manufacturers making many of their bread and butter cars available as plug-in hybrids. So, if you want to keep your money as far away from the Arab dictatorships and Russian mafia as Mercury is from Pluto, and enjoy your commute, we're more than ready to do our part! So let's begin with the most important question. What's Your Range? How much driving do you generally do in a day? If the answer to that question is 50 miles or fewer, an all-electric vehicle like the Nissan Leaf may be the best ingredient for your driving recipe. This is especially true if you have a second vehicle you can use for the occasional longer drive or are willing to rent for the weekend. But here's a little surprise for you. The upcoming Chevy Volt was designed to be driven in all-electric mode for over 50 miles. Fifty-three, to be exact. Plus, the Volt's battery has experienced a lot fewer deterioration issues than the Nissan Leaf's due in part to the Volt's liquid-cooled battery, which also uses a lot less of its capacity than the air-cooled Leaf's does.
