Mr.kenchan, since they cannot report "like"(s).. thus I don't care...

PLUS, my post is informative...

This needed to be said.

Besides the Z and GTR
Nissan is pretty crappy.
The sentras are pretty crappy, my sister has one and I hate those things.
I prefer my Honda civic 05 than her sentra 12

I gotta agree w/the OP. You have to buy an Xpensive list of aftermarket/performance parts just to make this car reliable to beat on...
oil cooler, oil press gauge, metal CSC, brake/clutch fluid, rear clutch LSD, etc...
That's over $3,000 in parts alone! I'm save'n up for new LeXuS. FoK NeeZan!

Wow, I thought this thread was dead already. But since you brought it up, if you plan on beating anything too much, then it's going to cost you a lot. Beat on your d*** too hard, peeing may become a pain. Beat on you girlfriend, you'll get beaten in prison. Keep in mind you said beat.

Let's be real, no car is 100% problem free. So if you believe that, then you have found the Yellow Brick Road.

Only $3k in parts and you're going to buy a Lexus? Seriously, what Lexus sports car is $3k cheaper than a Nissan? And what Lexus can you beat on where you won't spend money on parts?

Back in the day I used to valet. One day I was assigned to a private event at a funeral home (yes a funeral home). I kid you not, every single person that showed up was 70+ and had a Lexus. I parked only Lexus' at a funeral and that is the reason I will never ever own a Toy...Lexus.

I can tell you words that a Lexus owner has never heard:

"Wow beautiful car is it fun to drive?"
