Was a running vehicle up to brake line broke in Sept 2013. I no longer have a mechanic that will come to my home to repair my vehicles so I needed to upgrade my vehicle to one with a warranty. This vehicle is now for sale, used as-is. This is not a smoke free car."

This is a listing for a 1987 Nissan Maxima.  I am not sure if this is the SE or the GXE model. I have some original paperwork on it but it doesn't state what model it is.  This is a used vehicle, being sold as is.  The car has 121858 miles on it.  Low mileage for a 1987.  I have the title for this car with no lien holders.  Included is the original manuals and warranty book that came with the car.  Also the original receipts for repairs done by the first owner.  These were in the glove compartment and I am not sure if these are complete records from the original owner.  This is a really nice car.  This car deserves to be repaired and/or restored if someone has the capability,  I hate to scrap yard her.

Background:

The vehicle has had two owners: myself and my neighbor until 2012.  The car belonged to my elderly neighbor and she purchased it new.  When she left NYS she sold me her car.  I have had it almost two years.

The Problem:

The car is drivable, but needs work to fix the brake lines and work on the frame.  On Sept 25, 2013 the brake line rusted thru.  It needs to be replaced. In addition, the car failed its last July 2013 inspection.  It failed due to a dent in the unibody construction (right side) and some rust on the frame (left side).  The guy showed me one spot of rust on the frame and the dent that caused the failure of the inspection.  These issues are repairable.  This would be a great car for someone who has the ability to make these repairs themselves, or has the money to spend at an auto body/repair station.  The car also needs more work done on the exhaust system.  I had replaced the muffler on the system about two months ago but exhaust still needs further work.  There is a high pitch noise when the car runs and I have no idea what that is.  The push button for the trunk release/opener needs to be replaced, but trunk can be accessed with the key. 

The Exterior:

The car has a functioning sunroof.  There is rust around the rear fender wells.  The left rear door by the door handle has minor rust.  There is some rust on the left front fender at very bottom and right front fender. The passenger doors have mirror rust.  The right front part of the bumper plastic is cracked.  On the hood there is a scratch, no rust yet.  There is scratches on the roof that are minor.  There are minor scratches on the trunk hood.  There is some rust on the back above the rear brake lights.    The tires are about a year old, and maybe have about 10000 miles on them.

The Interior:

The car has an original security system that works.  It is called a theft warning system in the original paperwork.  The system activates when you set it, even if you leave your windows down.  There is a working AM/FM radio.  There is a cassette.  Not sure if cassette works as I have never tried it.  The stereo has a working graphic equalizer.  The car has working overdrive control switch.  Vanity mirror passenger side.  Spotlights mounted on inside ceiling between sun visors-all working. Interior light needs a bulb.  There is a working luggage compartment light.  There is car interior trunk access making the trunk readily accessible from the rear seat. There are three assist grips...front, rear passenger side and rear driver side.  This is by design.  Working trunk lid, and fuel lid openers in car.  Working tilt steering wheel.  The interior needs to be detailed as it is soiled from use.  There is one button missing out of driver side seat upholstery.  Seats feel like crushed velvet.  The power antenna will not retract.  You can hear it, like it is working, but it does not retract.

Information:

If you win or purchase this car you will have to call me to arrange for a day to pick this vehicle up with a tow truck, or like. I will ebay message you with my phone number. I would like to have the car moved within three days of the winning bid or purchase.  If that is a problem please message me before you bid or purchase the car.    Thank you.

Please read the listing and look at the pictures before you bid or purchase the car.  I have tried to list everything. If you have any questions please ask before bidding or purchasing. I will answer all questions and concerns. This is a used car that needs repaired.

  If you would like to view the car before bidding or purchasing please message me.  Will not end listing for you to come view.  This is a used, as is vehicle that needs work to run and pass NYS inspection.  In the future there may be other problems that could arise that I am unaware of as this is a 1987 vehicle.  I have listed every thing that I know.  

I do not accept returns.  No refunds.  Any questions ask before bidding or purchasing.  Cash, money order, bank check for payment at pick up.  Or PayPal if they allow the amount, no echecks.  Local pick up only please.  

Thank you for your time to look at this listing.

Nissan gives a better look at its Vision Gran Turismo concept

Wed, 11 Jun 2014

Just the other day, Nissan released an image showing all of its cars you can drive in Gran Turismo, with one little mystery hiding in the bottom right corner: a draped shape with the date June 10, 2014 - suggesting that it would reveal its Vision Gran Turismo on that date. Well, if you look at that calendar you'll realize that June 10 came and went yesterday, and Nissan didn't reveal the car.
As it turns out, what the folks at Nissan meant when they indicated June 10 was that they'd release the next teaser on that date, and that's what we have here. The teaser hints at one menacing-looking futuristic chunk of virtual performance meta, but "the next chapter" won't be revealed until next week on Monday, June 16. At that point we hope Nissan will actually reveal the full thing and not another teaser, but one way or another the finished product is expected to be present in the flesh (or sheet metal) for the Goodwood Festival of Speed at the end of the month.

2014 Nissan Serena offers big flexibility in a tidy package

Fri, 22 Nov 2013

In America, Nissan attempts to slake our kinschlepping needs with its slow-selling Quest minivan, but in Japan, where consumers seem a lot less reluctant to buy MPVs, there are a lot more models for every size family and budget. Nissan itself offers no fewer than six such minivans, including the popular Serena seen here.
Technically a mid-cycle facelift, this new Serena continues to offer seating for up to eight people with a gas-only or mild hybrid driveline delivering power to either the front or all four wheels. This Tokyo Motor Show reveal takes that familiar package and lends it a freshened look, complete with a revamped front fascia with less chrome frosting, optional LED headlamps, new LED taillamps and new alloy wheel patterns. In addition, the Serena receives new active safety technology, including lane departure warning systems, Around View Monitor with Moving Option Detection, Driver Attention Alert, and so on.
With only a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a continuously variable transmission, you might expect the Serena to be smaller than today's American minivans, and you'd be right - it's roughly the size of a short-wheelbase Gen III Dodge Caravan, making its seating capacity particularly impressive. Said another way, the Serena is likely to stay forbidden fruit, but that doesn't mean you can't enjoy it in our gallery.

Nissan reveals radical BladeGlider concept for Tokyo debut

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

Radical reinvention of the automobile doesn't happen very often. There's a reason they refer to it as "reinventing the wheel", after all. But that's what a team of racecar designers did with the original DeltaWing concept in 2010. Originally proposed as an IndyCar racer, the project was subsequently redesigned for Le Mans. That's when Nissan got on board, supported the project for a few races, then took the design in its own direction with the ZEOD RC. And now it's taking it to the road... via the auto show.
What we have here is the BladeGlider concept, a proposal for a delta-shaped electric sportscar which Nissan will present at the Tokyo Motor Show in a couple of weeks. Designed to focus on driving pleasure, the BladeGlider is about as radical as they come. Like the DeltaWing and ZEOD RC, it's got a narrow front track and wide rear to minimize drag and optimize stability, packing a 1+2 seating arrangement to put the driver front and center like in a McLaren F1, with upward-swinging doors and underbody aerodynamics to keep it glued to the road. In-wheel motors (of unspecified output) provide the power, a lightweight lithium-ion battery (not to mention the carbon-fiber bodywork) keeps it all fearther-like, and weight distribution is heavily biased towards the rear at 30:70.
A radical concept, to be sure, but here's the kicker: Nissan wants to build it. As you can see from the press release below, the BladeGlider "is both a proposal for the future direction of Nissan electric vehicle (EV) development and an exploratory prototype for an upcoming production vehicle". While it would undoubtedly take some time to develop, much less certify for road, seeing one of these - or even better, driving one - on our favorite stretches of tarmac strikes us as a prospect worth waiting for.
