The only major issue I think is the oil temperature one, but that only becomes a problem when you're tracking it. In that case, you would need to get an oil cooler.

4. The 7 Speed Auto is of really good quality. The Auto Z's have been proven to be a couple tenths of a second quicker on average than the manuals. I know this from experience

5. MPG expectations depend on where and how you drive. I drive around 70% highway and usually pretty calmly. I am currently averaging 23 mpg per tank.

Good luck and hope to see you in a Z soon!


This is the best 5 answers here. The auto is as good as you are going to get without it being a high end DCT transmission so the auto is extremely impressive for its $1300'ish price. Nissan in general build reliable good quality vehicles all round with the features you need.
Blades, I'm impressed with your 23mpg's. What's your secret? Lol.
