yeah nissans are usually cool for about a year, and then they get dated, look at the g35, it was SO COOL when it came out, and now it looks like its a 20year old car, design wise.

Not exactly a ringing endorsement for GM quality when people are running out buying Audi's so they can have a reliable car. I hear a lot of bad things about VW and Audi, but I swear my wife's A6 has been damn near perfect since we bought it new in 2001. Just lucky, I guess. And it's a damn nice car.


dads a6 just had the plug wires die, it ran fine, then he parked it for a week and it got cold, car started and ran, but badly



and my a4 friends just keep an extra set of coils in the glovebox, cause they are tired of getting stuck

One of the grad students I work with has z blazer with 220,000 miles on it and it runs great. He hasn't had any problems with the intake gasket or any problems with the motor. Lucky. I hope I get lucky too.

My mom had 3 Ford Aerostar vans. All went 300K+ with nothing more than oil changes. And all were donated in running condition.





**** - I can't get 100K out of a car, much less 300K...
