I've been taking a close look at the Subaru WRX lately.

Unfortunately, Nissan doesn't have a product (besides the Z) that fits my needs right now. I can't really have a Z as my daily driver, so my next car may very well be something other than a Nissan.

I like Nissan, Infiniti, and am a recovering Mazda fanatic. Those jerks need to bring back the RX-7...

My next car, when my Q45 dies or wrecks, will be another used Q45. :)

:Werd If I was just so rich I had money to buy anything I wanted, I would buy some Q's, G's, etc etc. But I would also buy out of Nissan, like BMW (M5 is my dream car), some mercedes, exotic italian sports cars, etc. I voted nissan forever though.

There are a few '91-'96 G20's for sale around my area, Stoney.....I think you need to take the Caddy on a road trip and come buy one of them.

I really like Nissan products enough that I own more than one, but not every Nissan vehicle fits my needs. I buy car based on my needs, and if it happens to be a Nissan, great. I think they make great vehicles overall, but not necessarily the best in every category.

I'd consider another manufacturer depending on what i'm buying...

I really need to find a small SUV with seating for 7, preferably Japanese-made, built in 1997-1999, with 50K-80K miles, around $10K.

I guess if I had to think of a person that epitomizes a die-hard Nissan fan, nlzmo400r would be it.

Frankly, although some design elements of Nissan still draws my interest, I find build quality and customer service to be somewhat lacking in recent years. My purchasing decisions and my spending $$ will be based on design and build quality, not silly brand loyalty.

I've owned nothing but Nissan cars (3) in my 4 1/2 short years of driving, and intend on owning nothing else.
