Kia has 3x the earning, with a tenth the debt, on $10B less in revenue. Kia's in the top 5 in operating revenue of the big players, couple ahead of Toyota, below Ferrari, BMW, Tesla and Mercedes. Pretty decent company.

Infiniti is killing it around here. Every soccer mom wants their QX60 or 80…and they aren’t cheap.

My wife got the 60 this year and loves it. Coming from a Lexus, the Infiniti is much more ergonomic and comfortable to drive. Tech is decent, and the interior is much nicer.

They just completely bungled the launch and aren't attempting to produce them in any quantity. I still have yet to see one, and I go to local Cars & Coffee events pretty often. It's like they don't actually want to sell the car.

Rez rocket altimas are the most impressive altimas.

wrecked on every corner. blacked out tail lights, burned out left headlight. Goes 64mph on the interstate, sun, snow rain or ice. has never met a speed bump, bald tires, dream catcher AND safety pin headdress from the rear view mirror.. "powered by frybread" sticker on trunk or rear bumper, which is always primer. never sure if the crooked license plate is for style, due to collision, or just plane ol falling off.

they're slowly replacing the pontiac grand am as the official pace car of the I25 north and south bound 500.

Amusing to find out the Altima reputation is a thing as it is so accurate.

That spot was once held by the Mitsubishi (Diamante?) I think or maybe some other sedan; all long gone to the crusher.

I gave up motorcycles thanks to deep tinted cars like the Altima;  making eye contact is important on a motorcycle if you want to stay alive.

When I am done with my current frontier I will be buying another.  Have also owned Toyota, Ford and Dodge trucks

I had a 2019 Desert Runner Frontier. Pulled a 6000 lb travel trailer all over Colorado with it.

It did just fine. The Frontier is still one of Nissan's best kept secrets.

Its a decent cheapish sports car in its own right, but it pales compared to other choices. For what most peeps want, theres more than enough fun for a Sunday drive or occasional track day. But the compromises are noticeable. The extra ponies are welcome, but arent quite harnessed. Good not great car.

It was apparent at the debut, this wasn't the car many hoped for, including the Nissan team. But Tamura and his peeps did a very good job with what they had. Nobody gets a blank check for these things (some Euros get closer), as Tada will attest. But this isn't exclusive to Nissan, its just greatly magnified by their financial situation.

Prolly sell 1500 this year. About the volume of GT-Rs decade ago or Z4 this year. Supra will sell less 5k tho. Miatas go 8k ish. GR 86 @ 12k. So noone of these are real volume.

Just imagine if they had been importing the past few generations of Patrols,
Had kept the Pathfinder a true 4Runner competitor,
And continued the X-Terra.
Let alone if they had gone removable roof panel/doors and barn door rear mounted spare on an X-terra update.
And kept the Maxima and in the know Japanese performance sedan that could kill Civics and Camrys in performance and price.

Instead, they blew off that market.
Let the Maxima become ghetto lux, and chased a shit demographic as far as sales and reputation go.

I recently bought a new car and Nissan was not even on my radar. I spotted Honda, Toyota, hyundai, and Ford (never going back).

Nissan has uninspiring cars (GTR is the only cool one and it's easy outta my price range). Nissan and Mitsubishi are the two Asian cat brands I've never considered. Nissan makes voting cars with mediocre performance.

Their spokeswoman (Bree Larson) is annoying and insufferable, so I don't even think about the brand.

I bought a Toyota and will have it for many years and not need much for maintenance. Nissan quality is low.

Used to have a 1997 Maxima. Best car ever made. SAE chose its DOHC V6 as "one of the 10 best engines in the world." Put 250K miles on it.

Also went through a couple of Xterras. Damn things were indestructible, were popular with Death Valley off-roaders. Xterras were more trucks than cars; they were built on the Titan chassis. Nissan got pussified and killed them

All gone. Yeah, Nissan is history.

Xterra was D40 frontier chassis, NOT titan.


The D40 could use front end parts from the titan which is also why they fit on the X. R50 was the last decent Pathfinder.

They should really focus on the compact truck off-road performance market.

Their best selling vehicle is the frontier.  They CAN make good trucks (I have a 2000 frontier and a newer Titan).  I've had the frontier for 15 years and daily it.  

If they can beat Toyota in the performance market and undercut them on price and remind buyers that their motors and such are well thought out since they aren't always changing stuff (how Toyota got to be seen as reliable), while giving good suspension, triple locked, off-road accessories (real ones, not fake plastic crappy appearance stuff), I think they could do it.

They did that from 1986.5 to 1997 (except a Nissan was more expensive than a Toyota). Hardbody was a fantastic truck which is why mine is 38 years old and looks and drives like new.

a 2022 nissian sentra 2.0l engine is worth less than $700 bucks. car-part is full of 40k mile sentras with bad transmissions. literally one of the biggest piece of shit auto manufactures on the road. they are literally worse than mopar. thats why they can't move shit anymore. these CVTs are sealed, non serviceable-ish, and they can not live for 50k miles. nissan has become mopar of the late 90s-early 2000s.

used sentra transmission with a 90 day warranty is $2,000. engine for same car with same warranty is $650. before buying any car check car-part. when you see junkyards busting at the seams with 3 and 4 year old cars that haven't been involved in a crash nor are they in a local area that just had a huge flood something is clearly wrong with that make and model.

2013-up sentras are all the same tune. 2015 sentra 1.8 sub 50k miles are less than $300 bucks. i wish i could find a retrofit niche to put all these damn near new sentra engines in, i could make a killing. it seems the engines are pretty hard to kill.

i bet the would make a hellofa gen set, wood chipper, ect engine retrofit engine.
