It would be great if it was AWD for winter driving, FailWD is still better than RWD for where I live/work in the winter. I like it, it’s like a reliable Japaense BMW lololol

He gave the Cossey family business. Good enough for me!

My brother was texting me the whole time, he’s like “Jim’s getting an Accord coupe w/ the aero kit, it looks so sick in white”. He sent me a pic before Jim took delivery of the vehicle. Definitely a good looking car. I’d take it over an Altima Coupe all day.

I dunno why they have to be specially certified to work on gt-r’s… You would think nissan would want all techs to be certified to work on all Nissans, like bmw and mercedes techs.

There’s 100 other cars out there that cost more that any tech can work on such as s65,m5,m6, etc… Just doesn’t make sense to me.

Makes it much more expensive owning one too I’m sure for service… It’d suck to own one and not have a dealership local to work on it. In which there has to be cases where this is true.

I remember when I worked at BMW and the Z8’s were being made. There were, at the time, SIX people in the entire country who could do body work on them, at all… Best, and shortest, pre-delivery inspection test drive of my entire life was the Alpina Z8 that we got in and I got to do. That car was pure fucking sex. I still have the serial number plaque that I had to replace off of it for a recall somewhere. The recall was due to the numbers being raised, rather than engraved, which made proper cleaning of the pieced “difficult or impossible” for the customer per BMW :rofl

Speaking of BMWs:

2004 BMW 325xi  
Has one small ding in the front passenger fender that’s barely noticeable. Mint everywhere else. 87k on it. Fully loaded.

I would imagine it’s similar to the lsa family cars and gm. For the gm stuff there are special procedures and certain things you can and can’t do with those motors. The training isn’t cheap so it isn’t viable for all dealers to have people to work on them. Its what happens when a manufacturer makes everything from a 10k shitbox to a 130k super car.
