Nissan lowering prices in U.S. of A.
 
Nissan announces big price drop on seven models | Fox News

ZMan8 05-02-2013 10:20 AM

Unknown, I think we already had a thread with this yesterday. If you read carefully, they are lowering the price, but getting rid of the incentives so out the door prices will probably stay the same.

enkei2k 05-02-2013 10:21 AM

No mention of Z though...

kenchan 05-02-2013 10:21 AM

yah, I think I posted Nissan should be paying people to take their fugly versa sedans...

whoever designed that ugly does not know wat cars as supposed to look like.

yah, at least the new Sentra looks a little bit better. still a bubbly lookin corolla-ish mess though. sentra looks better than the previous gen sentra.

I only really like the Altima, maxima, Exterra, the controversial Juke, GT-R and and of course the Z. The econoboxes, pickups and other SUV's they can keep.

kenchan 05-02-2013 10:47 AM

I only like the GTR and Z from Nissan at the moment.

I prefer the new accord sedan over the altima/maxima by far. :tup:

I like the design of the altima/maxima better than the Accord, but the accord wins lots of points with me with its available 6mt (though that's only on the 4 cyl model) :tup:

Low hp cars should have manual priority even over sports cars. Automatic slow cars are the most boring things ever.

:iagree: My scion xD is a 5mt, the auto version ($500 more expensive but is about 80% of xD's sold) is a 4 speed that will refuse to accelerate. Passing on the highway needs 15 seconds of prep to get up to speed. the 5 mt is much more pleasant to drive and I can have fun in this car :tup:. It's geared well and has enough power to offer great performance for it's price/class.

Half these econo boxes on tame roads with automatics will make you fall asleep behind the wheel. But i've driven some of these econoboxes in manual transmission on the mountains of Puerto Rico!!! Man it's like driving a serious sports car. So much more fun and exciting. I've driven the Toyota Vitz in PR, Mitsubishi lancer, Suzuki Fuego, mini cooper old mazda rx7 from 80's honda civic crx and Corolla. All these cars fairly low hp with manual transmissions felt like beasts on those mountains.
I think it's what those cars are made for. The terrain in Asia is extremely similar to PR. I've driven the auto versions of some of those cars in PR mountains:yawn:

you do realize asia is a pretty big area vs puerto rico...

The Aztek design team found a new place of employment. Screwing up rides since 2001.

Come to think of it I think they designed the front end of the Juke as well...

After scrolling down a little further I see Bucketlist knows whats up too :tup:

You might have a point there with age demographics. And :iagree: on the sportsh!t modes in small hp cars.

:tup: some of the cars you mentions were meant to be manual. Their auto counterparts were golf carts in comparison. especially cars like the mini cooper, crx, corolla.

DCT needs to invade compacts if they want sport shift autos. It's the only way. Theres more success in slushxes in much more powerful cars. The GTi. I think its the high end of low hp. It proves its worth in DSG/DCT over a slush.

JungleZ 05-02-2013 12:17 PM

You guys think the new z will be 35k-40k or 31k-35k

Why? You won't be buying one...you hate the Z remember.

Also Honda said they wont be making anything rwd. They heard all your complaints on Nissan that they don't want to ruin your fantasy of them.

I saved over $3,000 on my Z. So why should i have to worry on price. if we talking $30,000-40,000 range?

Learn how to deal and buy in a down market... Price range will worry you less.

Besides, the 302 is calling you:excited:

























go away quietly shhhh:wtf2:
