    Oof.

    I’m driving a 26 year old Nissan and it still runs great.

    Please don’t become another shitty car company. I thought I had an easy choice to make when I needed a new vehicle.

      Sadly, it’s age is the reason you love that Nissan. Their cars have been steadily getting worse the last decade or two

        But shareholder earnings have improved. And in the end, isn’t that what we all want? /s

          Their ex-ceo who was responsible for all the cost cutting packed himself in a suitcase to escape the country, so maybe it didn’t work out after all

      Same. I drive a 22-year old 350Z Roadster manual and I plan on keeping it forever. I beat on it cause it’s a sports car, yet it’s never needed anything more beyond basic maintenance. They just don’t make them this simple and reliable anymore.
