For auction is my 2005 Nissan 350z Touring Roadster with 52,100 miles as of the date this is being listed. The color is black with the factory option of burnt orange leather seats with black mesh inserts. I am the second owner of this vehicle and bought it from a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Nissan dealer in early 2007 as a Nissan Certified Used Vehicle along with a 5 year bumper to bumper extended warranty (expired in November 2012). I live in Michigan now, and have a clear title and own the car outright.
At the time of my purchase, the Z had about 20,677 miles or so on the odometer. I have babied this car since the day I bought it, always keeping it in the garage and being sure to have the oil and filter changed every 3500-4000 miles either by the Nissan dealer or by me personally. I am now reluctantly selling it only because I am moving out of state soon and I have too many toys, so I have to downsize a bit.
I am very honest in my Ebay listings and below detail everything I know about the car during my ownership, and what I know of its history before I bought the car.
CONDITION
As the pictures show, the car is in excellent shape. The engine is perfect and completely stock except for a Jim Wolf Technology (JWT) conical air filter that adds a few more horses and gives the Z a great intake growl. This can easily be swapped back to stock in about 15 minutes. I have the OEM air box and filter which will be sold with the car.
Oil and filter changes were done by Nissan, or by me personally every 3500 to 4000 miles.
There are no mechanical or electrical issues with this car. Everything runs and works exactly as it should. The clutch and gear shifter is original and flawless, and I just added 4 new tires about 800 miles ago. Anything that went wrong with the car was immediately rectified under my extended warranty. In 2010 I had a new thermostat put in under warranty. Prior to that, I had a new clutch slave cylinder put in under warranty. That is about it for any mechanical items that required warranty work.
I installed a brand heavy duty battery about 4 months ago.
The paint and body is in great shape. I am meticulous about my cars and have had the entire front bumper professionally surfaced and painted in late 2012 due to some small rock chips on the paint from the highway, and that were bothering me. In 2011, someone in a parking lot scraped the rear bumper. I had the entire back bumper professionally repainted rather than live with the scrape. Presently the only paint items existing are typical scratches from road use which any car with 50,000 miles will have. On the drivers side I had to due some very small touch ups due to three scratches from a parking lot likely. On the passenger side there is a very tiny ding that is barely noticeable unless you catch it in the right light and the right angle. It is really nothing more than most cars get in parking lots, which is likely what happened. On the front hood there are a few typical tiny rock chips from highway pebbles and such. Just what you would expect to see on a car with 50,000 miles or so. I tried to take pictures but could not get these things to show up in photos. That is it for any known paint and body items.
The convertible top is in excellent condition. It is not faded, and has no rips or tears. The rear glass window is perfect and the defogger works as it should. The power retractable top works perfectly as it should.
The car does not know what rust is. It also doesn't know what snow looks like.
Tires as stated are 4 brand new Kumho Ecsta ASX in the OEM sizes 225/45 18 (Fronts) and 245/45 18 (Rears). I had new front brakes put on the car about two years ago and there is plenty of pad left. The rears also have plenty of pad left. The rims are OEM 18". The fronts and one rear do have some very slight curb rash which is typical and not very noticeable unless you really look up close.
The interior trim, carpets and seats are all like new and in excellent shape, and the leather is great shape as well. No cracks or splits, etc. Power windows, locks and all other electrical functions perfectly as they should.
All in all, I can confidently and fairly rate this car as strongly between "very good" to "excellent" by Kelly Blue Book standards. In the interest of selling the car quickly, I have a starting bid (with no reserve) well below Blue Book private party sale value for that condition range of $19,458 to $19,908 which is what you can expect a dealer to ask for the same car.

VEHICLE HISTORY
As stated, I bought the car in early 2007 from a Nissan Dealer, and it was sold as a Nissan Certified Used Vehicle, passing Nissan's rigorous certification process and included a 5 year bumper to bumper warranty that just expired in November 2012.
The title is clear, and has never been a salvage title or such thing. I now own this car outright and hold the title as I paid off the loan recently.
There have been no traffic accidents while I owned the car other than minor and expected scrapes/dings from parking lots or rock chips from the highway (mentioned above), where I had both the front and rear bumper professional re-finished and repainted simply because these things bothered me from a cosmetic perspective.
I am aware only from Carfax that the prior owner in 2006 reported a minor accident of some sort in NY. Nissan has checked the car out from top to bottom and certified it when sold to me. Further, there is no indication of frame damage or anything else significant and I have had no issues in the 6 years I have owned this car. I suspect the 2006 damage was purely cosmetic, although I cannot tell from the carfax what was damaged, and I never have been able to tell by looking at the car since the paint and body is, and has always been in such great condition. That is the extent of my knowledge about the car's prior history and I mention this to try to be as honest as I can about my knowledge of the car.
SHIPPING AND PAYMENT
To protect everyone involved, I will not release the car or sign over the title until I receive full payment in the form of a cashier's or certified check from a bank and that check is cashed at the bank. I would like a $250 deposit from the winning bidder via paypal to be applied against the balance due on the car.
The winning bidder is responsible for shipping. I am willing to work with the buyer in order to deliver the car to a shipper, etc within a reasonable distance from my house.

There could hardly be two more disparate machines than a Nissan GT-R and BJ Baldwin's wicked trophy truck. While the supercar from Nissan needs no introduction, Baldwin's rig boasts 850 horsepower and an equally dizzying 34-inches of suspension travel. Monster Energy has taken it upon itself to throw those two together in a new short film that features Baldwin rescuing the female pilot of the GT-R by first jumping both her and her car in his desert bruiser. (Please keep the snickering to yourself until the conclusion of our program.)
The clip features plenty of shots of the truck bashing across the desert, slinging sand on scantily clad models and otherwise having a hell of a time. It's automotive porn of the highest caliber, though it stays safe for work. Click below to enjoy the show for yourself. Our only regret is that there's not enough engine noise to match the otherwise hot action.

Among automakers with a big US presence, General Motors is the worst to work for, according to a new survey from Tier 1 automotive suppliers, conducted by Planning Perspectives, Inc.
The Detroit-based manufacturer, which has been under fire following the ignition switch recall and its accompanying scandal, finished behind six other automakers with big US manufacturing operations. Suppliers had issues with trust and communications, as well as intellectual property protection. GM was also the least likely to allow suppliers to raise their prices in the face of unexpected increases in material cost, all of which contributed to 55 percent of suppliers saying their relationship with GM was "poor to very poor."
GM's cross-town competitors didn't fare much better. Chrysler finished in fifth place, ahead of GM and behind Dearborn-based Ford, which was passed for third place this year by Nissan. Toyota took the top marks, while Honda captured second place.

The man responsible for creating the sleek 2010 Nissan Ellure Concept you see above is now the design director for Infiniti. Alfonso Albaisa (shown at right) has been a member of the Nissan design team for 25 years, but was recently promoted to executive design director for the Infiniti brand.
His past roles at Nissan have included design director for Nissan from 2004 to 2007, vice president of Nissan Design Europe from 2007 to 2011, vice president of Nissan Design America in 2011 and, most recently, he held the title of Nissan's global design director. Aside from Ellure, Albaisa was also responsible for designing the 2012 Nissan Xtrem Concept, "key strategic production vehicles soon to be launched" and he's even contributed to a handful of Infiniti designs.
