2009 Platnium Graphite NISMO 5K Mi Going to okinawa

mikeyt750 · 06-02-2010, 11:10 AM

Ladies and gents,
I have come to the realization that I must sell my prized car.

. I am in the USMC and recently got orders to Okinawa Japan for "3" years. I don't have anyone to watch it and don't want to let her just sit for that long. It is #134, has Illum Kick plates and some wheel locks. Tinted windows to 35% that really sets the car off nicely. Just turned 5000 miles this morning on the way to work. Absolutly babied the car and waxed it pretty much every time I washed it with Meguires NXT Tech Wax. She is a weekend driver and an occasional drive to work car for me if the weather is cooperating. I even have a Nismo Car cover I purchased for it when I was thinking about storing it. E Mail me here or my personal e mail for pics and price discussions. mikeyt750@hotmail.com. Thanks, She needs a good home.

Sorry you have to sell.... but THANKS for your service !!!!!

Red370 · 06-02-2010, 09:04 PM

I've had soldiers that PCS'ed to Japan and were able to take the car with them, why cant you?

mikeyt750 · 06-03-2010, 02:51 PM

I am way too far behind the power curve to try and start with all of the PW now. I Know, I wish I could bring her

Red370 · 06-03-2010, 04:53 PM

ahhh, that sucks man, well good luck, have fun over there, try to get in some deep sea fishing while you're at it, I loved it there.

mikeyt750 · 06-03-2010, 08:35 PM

Thanks man. I'll be trying to get into some Scuba stuff. I heard that was the big thing and a must do thing there

Ole Rusty · 06-10-2010, 04:19 PM

You'll love it over there, but sorry you're in that situation. Make sure you travel a lot because you'll only get one chance to do this and, if not, you'll be like me wishing that I'd travelled more while I was there.

If you get in a jam...How about a power of attorney for someone you trust to ship it? I never had anyone to leave anything with either.

Or you could leave it with me for three years... LOL

USA, MSG (ret)

My day has passed...Thanks to all you guys that are still stepping up.
You know the saying "Where does the US keep finding people like this?"
In my case it was "Where the f@#K did they find this guy!?"

mikeyt750 · 06-23-2010, 07:31 PM

Wow, I am shocked. I still have my car. I went to Carmax yesterday and guess what they offered me? 26000.00 I was like %^$&$*#(#(@*#&$^!!!!! You got to be kidding me!

HKYStormFront · 06-23-2010, 08:20 PM

wish i could afford to take it off your hands but i can't

i'd be happy to take care of it for you while you are gone and take lots of pics of it

Hmmm Still advise Power of Attorney...Maybe storage (They will store it for you right-free?) Or ramp up advertising. IMO You can put motivated seller in the ads...But if you say you are a GI getting ready to PCS, they'll just wait until you are over a barrel.

How about PICS and a price on here?

I can't buy it. Having an issue with seat comfort right now.

vipor · 06-24-2010, 09:07 AM

I have a friend that's at least partially interested in getting a NISMO. I'll pass the word and get back with you. Asking price?

jase298 · 09-25-2010, 09:25 PM

The carmax price was about just right, the windsor nissan just quoted me 34800 for the 2010 model. I'll top carmax for 1.5k.

Jlawless · 09-28-2010, 10:28 AM

Carmax sucks btw. Shop it with 4-5 other dealerships. I did and I got 5k more for my charger than carmax offered me

wishihadnav · 09-28-2010, 04:39 PM

26k for a Nismo?..wow Carmax does suck..
