I'm selling my Xterra because I got a truck a while back and I'm tired of the Xterra taking up space in my driveway! I bought it certified pre-owned in 2006 with 20,000K miles; I've personally put the last 100,000K miles on it (through college and the first part of medical school). It has been very well maintained with timely oil changes, transmission fluid changes, greasing, air filter replacement, etc.

For full disclosure, I will list the known defects below (they are all VERY minor and I haven't had them fixed because I think it is overkill to spend the money for such minor things!):

Minor hail damage on the hood (see photo of the hood)
The "service engine soon" light comes on intermittently. I had it checked and the code is PO463 (see photo). This is basically some minor wiring issue that causes the gas gauge to be inaccurate (I rely on the trip and simply fill up once I reach a certain mileage). The Nissan dealer wanted $600 to fix it, which I felt was excessive.
The "low tire pressure" light started coming on intermittently a few weeks ago although I knew the tires weren't low. The Nissan dealer told me it is a faulty pressure sensor in the rear passenger-side tire. They wanted $250 to fix it, which I again felt was excessive as I can easily monitor the tire pressure myself!
The CD player doesn't work (it won't eject CDs). The radio and all speakers work just fine but the CD player doesn't work.

Other than the aforementioned minor defects, everything else works and looks great. There are no stains in the interior and this is a non-smoker vehicle. The 4x4 works great and this vehicle drives very well in the snow and rain. There is also ample storage and hauling ability in the vehicle. The tires are high-quality all-terrains with ~75% tread left.

Please feel free to call or text (479-422-7276) or reply within ebay with any questions!

Nissan's Ghosn highest paid exec in Japan again, at $10M per year

Tue, 24 Jun 2014

Nissan CEO Carlos Ghosn is on track to be the highest-paid executive in Japan for the fourth time in five years. Ghosn's salary and bonuses last year rang the register to the tune of $9.8 million (995 million yen), and when stock dividends are added to the equation, the exec's total pay crested a billion yen. That represents a 0.7-percent increase over his pay from the previous year. Ghosn earned an additional $3.1 million as CEO of Renault.
According to Bloomberg, Ghosn's compensation was announced at a shareholder's meeting in Japan, prompting an explanation from the CEO. "I understand the sensitivity of the issue," Ghosn said. "Being in Japan should not be a handicap to attract talent. We need the best minds, we need the best talents."
Few would argue with that assessment, we'd guess, but it doesn't answer the question of whether Ghosn is the most talented CEO in Japan. Akio Toyoda, head of Toyota in Japan, earned 230 yen (though, as a large shareholder in Toyota, Toyoda's dividend payments bring him closer to Ghosn) in compensation while steering his automaker to a profit that was five times higher than Nissan's. Honda President Takanobu Ito was paid the comparatively small sum of 150 million yen last year.

Modified Trabant takes on Nissan GT-R in 1/4-mile battle

Tue, 08 Apr 2014

The little yellow guy in the right lane above with the "Flitzer" license plate looks like a Trabant 601 wagon and it's called a Trabant, but it's got little to do with the impoverished East German runabout that did its part to drive Communist ideals further into the ground. You'd almost be forgiven for not knowing there's a turbocharged 3.0-liter engine up front, until you have look at that rear track... and the wheelie bars in back.
So with a power-to-weight ratio akin to an LS9-powered scooter, it's no surprise that the Trabbi puts a pasting on a slightly tuned, 580-horsepower Nissan GT-R - we don't know what happened with Godzilla's shifting, but it was all over from the hole shot. It's still fun to watch, though, and you can do that in the video below.

Nissan touts e-NV200 as electric VIP transport

Tue, Sep 23 2014

While the big auto show may be in Paris next month, right now in Hannover, Germany, commercial vehicle manufacturers are peddling their wares to fleet operators. Among them is Nissan, which is not only upgrading its NV400 full-size van with new engines and technology, but also showcasing a rather unusual show car in the form of the e-NV200 VIP Concept. Nissan has outfitted this electric NV200 demonstrator to chauffeur passengers around town in comfort and under electric propulsion. It's decked out in a two-tone metallic blue paint job and an interior upholstered in white leather contrasting with black trim and carpets, although for some reason the Japanese automaker hasn't seen fit to release any interior images. In the back you'll find a 21.5-inch DSP monitor, LED lighting and a pair of "club class" seats (again, no pictures), moved aft-wards to maximize leg room to 26 inches with an extendable footrest, while still allowing for luggage space behind. The driver can even make use of Nissan's new Smart Rear-View mirror to help get passengers as close to the red carpet as possible. NISSAN SHOWCASES EV FOR VIPs Zero emission e-NV200 is transformed for ultimate comfort city transport -introducing the e-NV200 concept for VIPs. - Luxuriously appointed 100% electric for downtown VIP passenger shuttle - Two-tone metallic blue exterior and white leather seats - Limousine-like space and 21.5-inch monitor with digital device connectivity - Smart Rear-View mirror providing clear rearward visibility in all conditions Hannover, Germany (23rd September, 2014) Fresh from launching the game-changing 100% electric Nissan e-NV200 compact van, the world's leading electric vehicle manufacturer has created a new zero emission concept for VIP transportation - the Nissan e-NV200 VIP Concept. Designers have upgraded the all-electric e-NV200 Evalia people carrier into a zero emission van perfect as shuttle transport for VIPs. The benefit of being zero emission means that the van can access all current and future clean air zones, as well as drive inside buildings, for the ultimate in discreet convenience. Behind the spectacular two-tone exterior lies a sophisticated and luxurious interior. The seats are covered in premium quality white leather with blue accents, which contrast with the predominantly black lower portion of the cabin - the trim and carpets are black with a piano black finish on the control surfaces.
