Make sure the paint is even on the whole lookaround.
Make sure all the interior parts are well kept and solid without any shaking parts.
Make sure Hatch opens properly.
Make sure you brought your big boy pants.
Make sure you ask about flood damage, depending on where you get it.
Make sure when you go for the test drive, redline the **** out of it, to see how the engine sounds, feels, acts.
Make sure the shifter shifts well and that the clutch feels solid without rattle or jitters.
Make sure that the each gateway to each gear has no blockage on it.
Make sure to check all fluids although your getting it changed anyways.
And Iono, random rant End.

Think long and hard if you want the headache this car will cause.

Read through teh numerous threads detailing endless issues on near brand new cars that Nissan never successfully repairs..

if the maintenance headache that this car will cause seems worth it to you then by all means pull the trigger
