Hello

I've been looking out to buy a neatly used ride and have had my eyes on Nissan as a brand (having used in the past that served well) however I have observed that most advertised here are priced relatively cheaper than I expect (which puts me on inquiry)

To those in the know, are there any issues watsoever on nissan cars particularly altima and maxima (1998-2000 models) causing people to dump them or are they just cheap on the second hand market?

Thanks in anticipation for your responses as you help clear some doubts

Anybody?

Nissan is a good product and there are no issue peculiar to any brand as all are liable to have some manufacturing/ design defects. It's just that the Nigerian market is suffering from popular demand syndrome(Toyota and Honda syndrome) making these popular demands over-priced as well as making all other brands look inferior. Remember your economics basics, "the higher the demand, the higher the price". My brother, the major determinant of a car is the user's maintenance style/culture. Nissan is a good car. Search well for a good one, maintain it properly, and it will serve you very well.

Thank you.

Have used one before and it served me well. Think imma just go for another

@bolded, that is compared with Toyota right? A thread, why are Nissan cars so cheap was opened on this issue some time ago. It's all based on the perception that Toyota is the best.

I've been using the Primera for some time and it has served me very well.

Same reason why '99 Camry is currently on the Hot-List for car thieves and still sells for 900k. Ugly car...rubbish!

LOL,>>>>>> I hate that carton of a car called camry, toyota has never satisfied me, anything above 120 km/h, you are on your own, poor brake, stability & traction control.

Try nissan, honda even hyundai do better than toyota.
