And this is the truest statement anyone has made on Nissan engineering. The only other car I have found this to be true is BMW. A the VQ at 30k miles will accelerate faster and feel torquier. The engine gets smoother and everything syncs in well. The best time to drive a VQ is between 30k-150k miles. I call this nissans priime when it comes to their engines
I been in some bimmers that pull like brand new or better at over 100k as well. Great motors.

Wow, what an interesting post. I've experienced this with two BMWs I've owned in the past and I couldn't explain it. Great observation. It's the same with the VQ in your experience?

My dad is in this situation so he is always changing cars. Which is nice so I can see different cars all the time. Every 2-3 years

Leasing a car have pros and cons, same as financing.

At least you have an option to keep the car or not when you lease it.

This is in case if your car has lots of reliability issues, you will end up stuck with it and paying alot for repairing after the warranty is expired. It happened to me when I was driving the BMW, try to sell it and the resale value wasn't that high...

If your car does very well and you can end up buy it after the lease is up.

Yes, you might end up paying the most, but since the interest rate and the amount of the buy-back is quite reasonable, I think it is feasible to lease a car and have an option to own it or choose another car at the end of the term.

GM is similar, but they never change. Dyno an LS1 at 10K miles, it's going to put down the same at 110K miles. Glad to know my VQ is solid.

The lease was for $2880 for the year plus ins....You can't buy one that cheap.I would have lost that as soon as I rolled off the lot. The new rate is $3840, not doing that....
