Are you a Nissan guy/girl?

bflosabre91 · 04-15-2011, 12:41 PM

I have some friends who are pretty hardcore chrysler/mopar dudes. I don't really have a specific love to any brand or hate to any either. That got me thinking if my love for my new 370z(which i've only had for like a month) will convert me into a nissan guy. Is anyone here a nissan guy/girl and what reason are you one? Did the greatness of the 370z make you come to love all that is Nissan?

I was a Acura guy, owned 4 of their cars over the years, but no cars in the lineup that fit me anymore, So when I get my Z it could very well make me a Nissan guy I suppose...

I'm not really brand loyal. I'm a Ford fan for sure but it's the product that really matters to me, not the brand. I guess you could say I'm just a car guy.

Although I think I may be a bit of a Nissan guy. I like the general philosophy they use with most of their cars. IMO they have one of the best overall combo of looks, performance, quality, and price. I'm talking about cars like the Z, GT-R, Maxima, Altima, and Infiniti's as well.

Nissan guy for life! Loved the ZX from the time I owned it and presently own two other Nissan products... hopefully not the last ones. I guess the great value to price ratio, plus excellent quality & design for Nissan products make me settle with this brand almost all the time. It got old real quick paying $500 oil change for Mercedes for service A every 3 months yuck!

I sure notice Nissans a lot more than I used to before I had my Z. Before the Z I was on a huge Honda kick.

I'm not really brand loyal. As long as it's quality-built and not North American "Big-3". And of course, not cheaply made junk (aka Kia's, Hyundai's, etc.).

I used to be a Toyota guy, till I got the Z; still like Toyotas however not sure If I call my self a Nissan guy, maybe a Z guy

Since every time I am approaching the Z its like

I'm really a Chevy guy. But all I have is an ex-race motor looking for a home in my garage. Sold my Corvettes. I have a Titan as my winter vehicle, a Mitsu Eclipse as summer car, and ofcourse my Z as weekend, show, going anyplace but work car. I used to own a 280Z that I put a Chevy motor in. Never completed the project and traded it for the Mitsu. I do love Vettes and Camaros but I bought the Z when Chevy wouldn't commit to a vert Camaro. And yes I'm very happy with my modded Z.

I have only owned Nissans. Two Pathfinders (both totalled by me), a Sentra (given to my soon to be ex-wife), currently have a 2010 Murano for my winter beater and of course the 40TH Anniversaty 370Z. I liked Nissans before I decided I wanted a Z.

Nismo221 · 04-15-2011, 03:08 PM

The 300zx is what made me a Nissan guy and have been one ever since.

Teddy KGB · 04-15-2011, 03:09 PM

I'm a bit of a Nissan guy. I've got a Maxima with 140,000 and no troubles at all. I'm in love with my Z, and will likely purchase a redesigned Frontier or Titan in the future, (hoping for a torque monster diesel). The VQ30DE in "Maxine" started the love affair though. I've always been a huge fan of Nissan VQ's, and feel they're a great mix of power and reliability.

SPOHN · 04-15-2011, 03:27 PM

Always loved them. My dad had a 72 240 so I always grew up loving the history. This is my second Z and third Nissan. My truck has over two hundred thousands miles no problems ever. Still on stock clutch.
