Yes, its true. This morning I traded in my Altima Coupe of 5 years 5 months for another vehicle. I have to say, it was not hard and maybe a bit overdue. For various reasons (which I will explain later) it had to happen...YESTERDAY. It was slowly but surely taking a downward spiral into oblivion (metaphorically speaking) and I had to get out while I could. It happened so fast that the only thing I removed from it were the subwoofers and amplifiers. Some lucky little brat is going to have their first car be a nicely equipped Altima Coupe (Borla exhaust, Racingline y-pipe, K&N intake, Racingline strut bar, Eibach springs, KYB shocks and struts, projector headlights, LED tail lights, ALL stayed on the car at trade).
Picture time!
As she stood today when I traded her in, a filthy little whuah.



Feel free to bite this now, his and hers initials on the lower door frame.


Apparently it was trade in your Altima day.

Little shoot I did when I first got my DSLR.


IMO, the ONLY way to tint you tail lights. Start with this:

End up with this:

Ohhhh the amp mount. I spent so much time on this. It pained me slightly to smash it to pieces this morning.

And the CAP holder.

The car is filthy in this pic, and its a terrible camera, but for some reason I LOVE this picture.

The old grille, before I even had tint.

This was the first round of tail tint. It looks amazing, but about as dangerous as driving blindfolded.

The headunit and DVD hack switch! God I was so proud of this. What a piece of crap that headunit is (its still in the car).

Actually Ill post this one from Carlisle 2012, one of my favorites. From front right to back left is DJ_B_Easy, LongBeachCoupe, Dreed86, DiamondWVU, Phenonemal Vinyl, Dangeris (you old fart), CoupeCrazy, Hemi swapped G35 (not a member here, thats what it is), and MattV609.

Now, you may ask yourself. What in the world might entice DJ_B_Easy to trade in his Altima Coupe!?!?!?! Well I'll tell you, but first we need some explanation.
I'm going to be 30 years old in February. Im getting married in May. Im hopefully selling my condo and buying a house shortly thereafter, maybe popping out a few baby Beasys. I need something functional, reliable, safe, and tank-like. Play time is over (sort of). I need 4 wheel drive. I need voice activated command. I need in dash nav. I need 40GB in dash hard drive. What fits the bill?
2012 Jeep Liberty Limited Jet Edition




20s, yo. And more flush than my AC ever was!

3.7L V6 4 speed automatic. 4 Speed is WEIRD at first. You dont really get there until 60MPH, and then you are doing 85 without even realizing it. Have to get used to that for sure. F gas mileage. I averaged 19 in the AC. I get 16/21 with the Liberty, and I dont need to fill with 93. Should be somewhat even split.

Sticker price was $32,995, Im financing $23,500, you do the math. Big incentive from the MFG helped out, I could not pass this up. All said and done, 5 hours in the dealership and my monthly payment increased by $50.00, my insurance DECREASED by $20.00. $30.00 More/month for a brand new ride with warranty and every feature I wanted. If anyone is in the market for an SUV I highly suggest checking out the Liberty (same incentive applies to all models).
Not going to do the goodbye thing, because Im not going anywhere.
Oh, one other thing. I left these in the AC.

One in each front seat map pocket, one in each back seat map pocket, one in each door storage area, one in the glove box, one in the center console, one in the cubby under the radio, one in the trunk. Hopefully ONE of those makes it to the next owner and we get an amazing thread out of it.
