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.

Watch this mobility scooter drag race a Nissan Skyline with surprising results

Fri, 19 Jul 2013

Okay, so we may not be talking about a classic, all-conquering Nissan Skyline GT-R here. But the sub-Godzilla-trim Nissan Skyline GTS-T is still a car, after all. And, as a car, if someone asked you to lay a bet on it versus a mobility scooter (Hoveround, Rascal, you know the type) in a drag race, you'd probably take that action.
Unless, of course, that drag race were happening on YouTube, in which case you'd put your money away and open up your laptop. On the Internet it's best to never bet against the wild underdog.
We don't mean to spoil the following video for you, but come on. When you saw Skyline vs. Scooter in that headline, you had a pretty good idea of what was to come, didn't you. Needless to say, mobility scooters fitted with Suzuki GSX-600F engines are pretty quick. Strap in and scroll down.

Should heavy-duty pickup trucks have window stickers with fuel mileage estimates?

Sat, Sep 23 2017

If you were to stroll into your nearest Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, Nissan, or Ram dealership, you'd find a bunch of pickup trucks. Most of those would have proper window stickers labeled with things like base prices, options prices, location of manufacture, and, crucially, fuel economy estimates. But you'd also run across a number of heavy-duty trucks with no such fuel mileage data from the Environmental Protection Agency. The EPA doesn't require automakers to publish the valuable miles-per-gallon measurement for vehicles with gross weight ratings that exceed 8,500 pounds. That makes it difficult for consumers to compare behemoths powered by turbocharged diesel engines – between one another, and between smaller, gasoline-fueled trucks. Consumer Reports doesn't think it should be this way, and it's spearheading an effort (PDF link) to get the government to require manufacturers to publish fuel economy estimates. In its own testing, CR found that heavy-duty pickups powered by Ford's Power Stroke, GM's Duramax, and FCA's Cummins diesel engines (which doesn't include the Ram's EcoDiesel) get worse fuel mileage than their lighter-duty gas-powered siblings. We're not so sure HD-truck buyers are unaware of this fact – big diesels don't really come into their own until big loads are placed in their beds or attached to their trailer hitches. Under heavy workloads, the diesel trucks will almost certainly return greater efficiency than a similar gas-powered truck. What's more, HD trucks with lumbering diesels in general make the driver feel more confident while towing due to greater torque at low engine RPM than gas trucks. They also offer greater max-weight limits. Still, we agree EPA fuel mileage estimates should be offered for heavy-duty pickups. And we think the comparisons provided by Consumer Reports might be interesting to potential buyers. Click here to see the results of CR's tests, and let us know what you think using the poll below.

Is your new-car warranty good at the race track?

Mon, Feb 27 2017

We've all heard the horror stories. Your buddy knows a girl that was dating a guy whose best friend's brother once broke his brand-new, recently purchased performance car while making runs at a drag strip or laps at a track day, and the manufacturer wouldn't cover the repair under warranty. True story? Urban legend? Complete crap? Yes, no, maybe. One thing's for sure: Automotive warranties have always come with caveats. In 1908, an ad in the Trenton Evening Times clearly stated: "All Ford Cars Guaranteed for One Year." Although it changed over time, by 1925 the Ford New Car Guarantee only covered 90 days on material and 30 days on labor, and it clearly stated that that there was "No guarantee whatever on Fan Belts, Glass, Bulbs, Wiring, Transmission, Bands, Hose Connections, Commutator Shells, Rollers, Spark Plugs or Gaskets." Whether or not Ol' Henry would pay to fix your Model T if you broke it shaving a tenth off your lap time at the local board track seems to be lost to history. We're guessing no. But what about today? Do new-car warranties in 2017 cover cars when they are driven on race tracks? We researched the warranties of 14 auto brands to find out, and the answer is yes, no, maybe, depending on the brand, in some cases the model, and whether or not your car is modified from stock. Acura has been out of the high-performance car game for a number of years, but jumps back into the party in 2017 with its hybrid-powered $173,000 NSX supercar. And Acura's warranty, as well as Honda's, clearly states that it does not cover "the use of the vehicle in competition or racing events." View 33 Photos So we asked Sage Marie, Senior Manager of Public Relations for Honda and Acura. "If the car is stock, the warranty covers it on a track just as it does on the street. No question," he told us. "However, if the car is modified, say with slick tires or other components that would put higher stresses on the vehicle's parts and systems, then we would have to investigate the circumstances further." Marie went on to say the same would be true for any Acura model or Honda vehicle, including the new 2017 Honda Civic Si. This became a common theme. Chevrolet actually started this practice with the fifth-generation Camaro on the high-performance ZL1 and Z/28 models.
