This would be the perfect car for a college or high school student, or for anyone who needs ultra-reliable transportation. It's a good illustration of the fact that the 2006 is the only recent Altima recommended by Consumer Reports. My wife and I bought this car new in Sept. 2006 and are the only owners. My wife drove it until a couple of months ago, when I bought her a Buick because she wanted something soft and comfortable (we are in our mid-60s). The car has been extremely reliable, with no breakdowns or mechanical problems. All systems and accessories are in perfect working order (power steering, brakes, windows, door locks, driver’s seat, mirrors, ice-cold A/C, etc). It has a tilt steering wheel, cruise control, and AM/FM/CD stereo. I am driving it to work occasionally now, so the mileage will change slightly. I just decided to sell it because we have five vehicles at home (for two drivers) and I prefer to drive my ‘92 Mercedes or my ‘77 Fiat Spider. All our children and grandchildren of driving age already have good vehicles.

The car was in a minor accident about five years ago, when an oncoming driver came across the center line and my wife had to decide instantly to either hit him head-on or go into the ditch – thankfully, she chose the ditch. It was completely repaired with all-new parts, and there has been no problem of any kind with it since. The car has a few normal little “booboos” such as small scratches, parking lot bumps, stains, etc. The most noticeable thing is the clear coating, which was scratched up when our granddaughter decided to surprise us by washing and cleaning the car and used a scouring pad to get pine tar off the hood and back deck. The left front fender has a very small crease in it, and the back right door is about 1/8 inch out of alignment from the time I started to back out of the carport without noticing that door was still open (no air or water leaks – it is completely sealed and you have to be looking for it to notice it). The car looks great from 15-20 feet, and only shows these things from up close. Check the photos carefully and you’ll see what I mean.

This car has been meticulously maintained, and I have all service records for everything that has ever been done. I have the original window sticker and paperwork. All of this is in a file which will go to the new owner if you want it. I don’t know of anything the car needs now, or will need in the future except normal maintenance.

I think I have covered all the relevant information about the car; if there are any further questions, feel free to contact me.

I have total confidence in this vehicle, and would drive it anywhere, anytime. In fact, if it doesn’t sell for some reason, we will drive it from NC to Arkansas for a family reunion in July. There's no reason it won't go another 160K miles. Please look at my feedback and bid with confidence. I will let the bidding begin at $500, and I set a very reasonable reserve of $3000. I’m not interested in taking any less; it’s worth that much to me as a spare. Kelly Blue Book (kbb.com) prices it for a private sale at $3900 in fair condition and $4600 in good condition. NADA guides show an average trade-in of $3400 and a retail of $6450. Both of those take into account the existing mileage, of course.

Good luck and happy bidding! Winning bidder must send $500 via PayPal within 24 hours, with the balance due in cash and the car picked up within 7 days. Thanks!

Nissan's crowdsourced Project Titan is ready to tackle Alaska [w/videos]

Wed, 10 Sep 2014

Alaska still offers Americans the chance to really experience the wilderness, and Nissan is challenging its Titan pickup to its offroad extremes with a little help from its fans. After crowdsourcing a heap of mods, the company is handing it over to two Wounded Warrior Project Alumni to do their worst in the backcountry to see what the truck can do.
Nissan last experimented with the crowdsourcing idea on its Project 370Z in 2012 but might have taken things even further this time. For Project Titan, the automaker let fans vote on 10 different areas to customize on a 2014 Titan Crew Cab PRO-4X. To fit the rugged look, the company covered it up with a custom digital-camouflage wrap with a Wounded Warrior Project emblem and even outfitted its all-terrain camping trailer in a similar scheme. An LED lighting rig was also added to the new bull bar and roof rack to brighten the night. For a just little more grunt, the 5.6-liter V8 was outfitted with a Nismo cold-air intake and Borla cat-back exhaust, and to keep from getting stuck, the pickup got an upgraded suspension with more travel and 18-inch wheels with 35-inch Nitto offroad tires. The interior was also slightly revised with big GPS system and custom embroidered seats.
Now, it's time to see if the truck's mods can handle what the Alaskan wilderness can throw at it. The two Wounded Warrior Project Alumni are just starting their expedition and are expecting snow on the way. Scroll down to watch three build videos for the Titan and read Nissan's official announcement. You can also follow their journey on Nissan Trucks' Facebook page.

Nissan GT-R goes on Rockies Alberta adventure with Epic Drives

Fri, 24 Oct 2014

Years after its original debut, the Nissan GT-R remains a much-feared, well-regarded entry in the sports car landscape. Sure, many of its original competitors are onto new generations these days, but Nissan has continually improved the GT-R, giving it meaningful tweaks almost every year since it came to the US market for 2009. Reviewers also just seem to keep finding things to praise about the all-wheel drive, turbocharged coupe. In this episode of Epic Drives, the GT-R proves that in addition to being a quite pleasant road trip companion around the province of Alberta, Canada, in a pinch it can go off-road to herd some horses, too.
At its heart, Epic Drives amounts to half travelogue and half driving review. So in between snaking the GT-R through some picturesque roads, host Arthur St. Antoine takes a tour of Alberta and the Canadian Rockies. If you're in the mood to take a drive in the Nissan through a landscape that blends the looks of a prairie, the Alps and fjords, then have a seat and check this video out.

Porsche 911 and Nissan 350Z get smoked by unlikely hero

Mon, Jun 1 2015

So a Nissan 350Z Procharger and a current Porsche 911 GT3 drive onto the Autobahn together - stop me if you've heard this one before - and they decide to race. We're not sure how much power the Z is packing, but the stock model topped out at 306 horsepower on the last year of its run in 2009. And if that's a stock GT3 then it will be rocking something like 475 horsepower. So the Z and the GT3 give it a racing go, and just as one of them starts to pull away they're both overtaken by one of the most unlikely dark horses you could imagine. It's a really short video and we won't spoil the surprise, so check it out above.
