Hello and thanks for clicking for additional information on this auction.

Up for bid is a 2000 Nissan Maxima SE with nearly 184,000 miles on its strong V6 engine. The car accelerates great and runs strong despite its miles. The interior is typical for a vehicle with this mileage, however it was a non-smoker car and there are no rips, tears or holes on the cloth seating. Car comes with a single disc Sony CD Player recently installed along with working interior and exterior lights. No known engine issues or sounds coming from the engine.

Tires have about 50% tread life left on all four (replaced at the same time) along with front and rear brakes and rotors that were installed in early March. The vehicle would make a great highway car or a just around town ride.

There are a few minor scratches on the vehicle as shown in the pictures, most of them are hairline and not deep enough to be seen from a distance. It looks as though someone tried to wax the hood with a brush so there are some hairline scratches there as well. There is also a spot on the right passenger door where someone may have tried to get the doors unlocked by lifting the top of the door. The weather stripping is still in place and does keep the rain out. The headlights like most vehicles with high miles and older are fogged and will more than likely need cleaned or replaced depending on your state inspection guidelines, however the headlight bulbs are about two weeks old.

When driving this vehicle the engine feels strong, steering is great along with easy and timely acceleration, however with that being said there are some issues with the front of the vehicle and exhaust. I am not a mechanic so these are my best assumptions. It sounds as though there is a small hole in the exhaust it is not excessively loud, but you can tell it’s a bit louder than it should be. Also when driving over bumps or uneven pavement there is a squeaking noise followed by what sounds like the axels or wheel bearings making a cracking noise. There is also some rubbing which sounds like the front brakes and rotors rubbing together when the brakes are hotter, not sure since they were replaced in March and stop like new brakes should.

I have uploaded a video and pictures giving you a good outline of the vehicle, please listen closely to the last about two minutes of the video for the sound that car makes when it goes over bumpy residential streets.

If the vehicle reaches its low reserve price I will see that it has an oil change and a full tank of gas for the winner of the auction. I cannot provide temporary tags so winner will need to make arrangements to pick the vehicle up with a trailer or have it shipped to them. I can help arrange that if need be for an additional charge.

Current Kelley Blue Book Fair to Good Private Party Value is: $2200-2600.00.

The reserve is set low and if you happen to have any questions or concerns please feel free to email me and I will get back to you or forward you my number so we can talk.

Terms:
$500.00 is due in 24 hours of auction end if winner has not paid I will make claim against them with EBAY for reimbursement of listing fees.

Payment Options:
If you plan on paying cash for the vehicle upon pickup you MUST make arrangements with me within 24 hours of auction end or again you will be reported to EBAY. Less than five positive feedbacks please email me before bidding. I can accept credit cards through my business for an additional 5% of the winning bid or you may pay the entire winning amount using PayPal.

Thanks for your time.

Nissan reveals NP300 Navara pickup, is it the next Frontier? [w/videos] [UPDATE]

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

UPDATE: Statement from Nissan added, below.
After plenty of teasing, Nissan has finally revealed the NP300 Navara pickup, previewing America's next Frontier. Now, before we dive into all the info on this new midsize pickup, it's important to note that we don't quite have the official details on the American-spec truck, so there's quite a bit of information here that might not carry through to the North American market.
Depending on the market, the Navara will offer either a four-cylinder diesel or a four-cylinder gas engine, both of which displace 2.5 liters. Nissan claims both engines have been improved, with the oil-burner producing 188 horsepower and 332 pound-feet of torque. There aren't specific figures on the gas engine, although we should expect that it will see a nice bump from the current Frontier's four-cylinder, which offers up 152 hp and 171 lb-ft of torque. It's not clear if a V6 will be available in the US, as there's no mention of it in the Navara's literature.

Nissan IDX sports coupe future increasingly cloudy [w/poll]

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

There's a strong desire among enthusiasts for more inexpensive, lightweight, fun-to-drive, rear-wheel-drive cars to exist in a world that contrasts sharply with automakers' desire to make money. While we all love the feeling of controlling the back end with the throttle, front-wheel drive is king when it comes to affordable cars. One of the future bright spots in the rear-drive market appeared to come from Nissan with its pair of IDx concepts. The two showcars from the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show took liberal design inspiration from the classic Datsun 510 and mixed it with modern powertrains in very attractive little packages. However, some pretty dark clouds are reportedly now hanging over the project.
Last we heard, a production version was supposedly "in the plan" from the Japanese automaker, but its trajectory may have changed inside the company in the last few months. According to Pierre Loing, vice president of product planning for Nissan Americas, the issue is making the sports coupe profitable. While Nissan has access to rear-wheel drive platforms, they are all meant for more premium vehicles (read: they cost too much). Assuming around 60,000 annual sales, Loing tells Ward's Auto that making a dedicated chassis for the IDx just isn't a moneymaker. If the car still does see production, it'll be after 2016, he says.
The decision whether to build the IDx has been teetering for a while. Nissan spokesperson Dan Bedore previously told Autoblog that the coupe would need a groundswell of support from consumers and enthusiasts if is to actually have a shot at production. If you are among the hopeful looking to see this affordable, rear-drive performance car in showrooms, get some friends together and start letting Nissan know that you actually want it - you can start here by adding a Comment and voting in our poll, because we're going to send the results on to Nissan.

NHTSA releases updated Takata airbag recalled cars list, but it still has errors

Wed, 22 Oct 2014



Unfortunately, the government's list still contains errors.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued an updated list of vehicle models that it's urging owners to repair under the mushrooming Takata airbag inflator recall. The latest version adds vehicles from new automakers like Subaru and Ford that are missing from the original announcement, and it also removes erroneous entries from General Motors, leaving only the 2005 Saab 9-2X (a reskinned Subaru WRX), and the 2003-2005 Pontiac Vibe, a joint project with Toyota.
