2003 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec-V in Aztec Red 130,500 miles
Features: 2.5 liter 4-cylinder engine with 175 hp from the factory Six-speed manual transmission 17" factory wheels Sport-tuned suspension Keyless entry Power windows and locks Sunroof Race-inspired seats New brakes Air conditioning recharged One owner Clear MD title in hand I bought this car new from South Point Nissan in Austin, Texas on 7/28/03. I used it as my commuter vehicle for the better part of ten years until getting something larger last fall. Since then I've driven it to work an average of once per week. It is in good condition, though it is an older car, shows some wear, and has typical paint chips and maintenance needs. Interior is in good shape as well. It has generally been a very reliable daily driver for me and is a blast to drive. I really enjoy driving this car. It has good power and responsiveness and corners nicely. The six speed manual is a ton of fun. I changed the oil with Mobil 1 synthetic every 4,000 miles until the car reached 100k miles and since then I've changed it every 5,000 miles. This car has never seen anything other than a Nissan oil filter, and got a new one with every oil change. On 6/6/05 while I was driving to work (in Texas), a lady in the lane to my left going the same direction as me swerved into my lane to avoid someone crossing over the center line into her lane. The car sustained body damage to the left front and also on the right side as the car careened into the safety rail on that side. I took the car back to the dealership and it had about $4,500 worth of bodywork repairs done. Since then I've driven the car over 100k miles and while the front bumper sags a bit, the accident didn't adversely impact the way the car drives and you generally can't tell it was in an accident. I drove the car up when we moved to Maryland in mid-2006 and it has been up here since, after spending its first three years in Central Texas. The car has been modestly modified for performance, fuel economy, and reliability. In August of 2004 I bought and installed a Hotshot header (exhaust manifold). These cars are known to have trouble with the stock exhaust manifold catalytic converter breaking up and being sucked into the engine which causes catastrophic engine failure. Changing to the aftermarket header alleviated that risk altogether. In 2013 the Hotshot header rusted out around the bottom midpipe flange and I purchased a like-new NISMO header and installed it. The O2 sensor that was located inside the stock manifold has been relocated behind the cat in the midpipe using a DC sports extender harness that uses the stock car and sensor harnesses (no wires were cut) and I replaced the O2 sensor when I installed the NISMO header. The car has passed MD state emissions inspection every other year, as required. In December of 2004 I bought and installed an aftermarket Stromung stainless steel exhaust. The Stromung is a top quality piece with a nice exhaust note, and a highly desired part. I also installed an AEM cold air intake and solid motor mount inserts that eliminate "wheel hop" when the front wheels spin. I installed a lightened crank pulley as well. Other than those external engine mods the car is largely stock. Recent maintenance includes: New brake rotors and ceramic pads and bled the brakes in April of 2014. In August of 2013 I replaced the battery. In the winter of early 2013 as I was driving home from work the serpentine belt broke. I took the car to the Nissan dealer and they replaced the belt as well as drained the cooling system and replaced with new coolant. In December of 2012 when the car had 120k miles on it, I had new Bridgestone Potenza RE970 ultra high performance all weather tires installed on the car at Costco. These tires are very highly rated by TireRack and I've found them to handle really well even in wet weather with good ride quality. The tires were rotated at 127,500 miles and now have about 10k miles on them. In the summer of 2012 an air conditioning line ruptured and the A/C lost function. I took the car to the Nissan dealer, where they replaced the hard line and re-charged the A/C. The air conditioning cools as good as new now. The OEM headlights had become pretty clouded and one of the driving lights didn't function so this spring I replaced them with new TYR complete headlamp assemblies. I also had a brake light out so last month I replaced both brake lamp bulbs in the rear. The car is over 10 years old and has over 100k miles on it so it isn't perfect. The front end has paint chips, particularly on the hood. The windshield has minor chips and scratches typical of a car this age. There is a small, barely noticeable dent on the driver's side rear quarter panel that has been there since the day my son was born (long story). The driver's side door has some bubbling on the front edge down low which indicates rust underneath (pictured). Besides that the car doesn't show obvious signs of rust. The stock radio functions fine but the CD player ate the last CD I put in it, so I'd assume that doesn't work. Overall the car has served me very well and should have a lot of good years left in it with continued diligent care. As I said, it is great fun to drive. Blue Book value for "good" (defined as better/worse than 50% of the used cars out there) condition is $3,250. This is a NO RESERVE auction and the car will go to the winning bidder at the end of the auction. Car is located in Maryland and I have clear title in hand. Car is described accurately herein but is for sale as-is, where-is. I am willing to work with the buyer's chosen transporter, but buyer is responsible for any and all shipping fees. $500 deposit due via Paypal within 24 hours of the end of the auction. The balance is to be paid in cash at the time the vehicle is collected.

2014 Nissan Rogue gives us our best look yet
Thu, 08 Aug 2013Nissan is reportedly fast-tracking the development of its next-generation Rogue crossover, and judging by this latest set of spy shots, the new small CUV is coming along quite nicely.
To no one's surprise, the new Rogue takes the vast majority of its design cues from the Hi-Cross concept that debuted at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, and specific elements like the pronounced wheel arches, angular nose, flat roofline and more stylized taillmaps should make for a Rogue that's far more style conscious than the model it replaces. This stronger design language should help the new Rogue to better stand out in the sea of Honda CR-V and Toyota RAV4 rivals.
There's far more to the new Rogue than just some swoopier sheetmetal, though. This crossover is expected to be the first vehicle to ride on the Renault-Nissan CMF (Common Module Family) platform, an architecture flexible enough to eventually support a host of new products. As we reported earlier, the next Rogue will be built in the US, in Tennessee.
2015 Nissan Murano gets edgier, lighter for NY
Mon, 14 Apr 2014Nissan's Murano stands as one of the originators of the crossover movement - it was perhaps the first such vehicle to throw out the idea that a CUV had to look like a boxy, cladded-up sport utility vehicle in order to be successful. Now poised to enter its third generation, the midsize Nissan is not only getting a new look and a host of new technologies, it's getting a new home: Canton, MS.
With dramatic new styling presaged by the Resonance Concept at last year's Detroit Auto Show, the new Murano debuting at this week's New York Auto Show includes a toned-down "V-Motion" nose, and the Japanese automaker's trademark boomerang-shaped light fixtures. Aside from the chunky chrome U-shaped grille element up front, the new Murano's most striking design detail is its cantilevered roof with funky "disconnected" D-pillars, a floating look reinforced by a greenhouse edged in brightwork. Overall, it's a much more bold and expressive piece of design than Nissan's recent second-generation Rogue, fitting, as the Murano has always been on the daring end of CUV design.
Boasting a 0.31 coefficient of drag and a ton of sheetmetal surface development, the Murano's new form is available with LED headlamps and features active grille shutters for improved aerodynamics. The company claims visibility has been improved as well - and not just because of its brilliant available Around View Monitor camera system - Nissan says it has "optimized the angles and thickness of the bottom of the A-pillar," along with fiddling with the size and location of the side mirrors.
Nissan recalling 909k vehicles globally over accelerator issue
Thu, 26 Sep 2013Nissan is issuing a massive recall that will see the Japanese automaker repair 908,900 vehicles worldwide, with nearly 100,000 of the affected models in the United States. While an official recall notice from Nissan or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is not yet available, Reuters has been able to confirm the recall with Nissan.
Nissan's recall is kind of the opposite of the Toyota unintended acceleration, in that it covers a lack of acceleration. According to the report, a sensor in the gas pedal can develop faults, leading to a sluggish acceleration or an outright stall regardless of how much throttle the driver dials in. The huge recall covers mostly Japanese domestic models like the Serena, X-Trail, Lafesta and Fuga, which make up for 764,800 of the 908,900 faulty vehicles. However, 98,300 Infiniti M sedans are being recalled in the US, although it's unclear at this time which model years and trims are affected. The remaining vehicles are found in Europe and Oceania, according to Nissan spokesman Chris Keefe.
No injuries or accidents have been reported due to the faults. The 90-minute repair will see techs replace the accelerator pedal and tweak the engine control programs. We'll update this story as soon as Nissan or NHTSA makes an official statement.
