What Nissan has to offer?

Yes Honda is most reliable for the money but they are boring. I think with Nissan you get the most Bang for your buck, meaning they have options for everyone and around 30k for a 370z is really the best deal for a 6 cylinder sports car

Nissan by far has always offered some of the best import vehicles in terms of power, style,handling, reliabilty and overall performance. Honda best for reliability, only made 2 nice sports car and were very pricey S2000 and acura NSX. Toyota had the MR2 and Celica GT, but they were kind of down on power and styling. Mazda while the rx7 and rx8 are nice, they are down on power compared to the competition and since a lot of the new mazdas are simply Fords with a few different parts and a different name plate on them, my policy has been to avoid anything related to Ford like the plague. To avoid the "FOUND ON ROAD DEAD" syndrome.

I've owned always GM's until 1985 and switched to nissan in 1987 and never really had any major issues with all the nissans I have owned. The only major issue you have with nissans or any other car is the environment they are driven in. I drove most of my nissans in the heavy salted winter roads in NYS and most of the issues I had with the nissans were due to corrosion of certain components or rust thru at around a 100k or 7-10 yrs. of bad weather. Here is a list of total failures of 12 nissians from 1987-present.
1. fog lights moisture defect, waranty
2. seat cover worn early, waranty
3.horn waranty
4.exhaust system rotted, waranty
5.2000 frontier( american made kentucky problems start) ABS waranty
6. 2000 frontier ABS waranty
7. 2000 frontier ABS waranty
8 2000 frontier ABS OFW hell with it
9. 2000 frontier leaf spring breaks
10. 2000 frontier clutch assembly 60K
11. 2000 frontier major rust thru at 5 yr. period nissan waranty worth nothing, use bondo
13. 2000 frontier steering box 90k , rusted shaft leeking
14. 2000 frontier rusted AFT lines 100k
15. 2000 frontier need full exhaust 100k
Sold the frontier 115K miles after owning it for 11yrs, paid $10k new , sold for $3800,outside of abs issues, most problems due to rust.
16. 1985 300z turbo black/gold bought it used from a doc, in 1999 for around $2500 never seen a winter, with only around 40k on it, the car drove nice and was very fast for a car of that time period, but after looking over the 2 inch stack of paper work and invoices of work the previous owner did on this car , it seemed he was pouring $2k -$3K in it every 2 yrs. Most of the issues were turbo, carb, and clutch related all expensive work. So I stopped at a local nissan dealer one day and I got $8000 for it on trade, turned out nissan dealer wanted it for there show room floor.
17. 2005 sentra electric door locks failing at 60k

Overall you can't go wrong with nissans in general, my brother drives about 300k miles in 3 yrs. to work and play etc. and he goes thru new cars and trucks like nothing. His longest and best running vehicle was a nissan pickup that he drove for 6 yrs. and put about 500k miles on just running them on mobile 1, only maintanance were brakes, clutch,tires etc. He now has switched to ford and now gm, the best he got with the fords were 35k -170k and the vehicles had major issues when sold or traded. The old nissan truck was still running good and he gave it to his girlfriend for free.
