So you found a 3rd gen at a Nissan dealer? Hmmm. Well dealers are not always honest when it comes to trying to make a used car seem more valuable than it really is. But a dealer will always change out the fluids and stuff for you if you demand that they do so (or perhaps already done as standard practice, along with detailing it). Dealers usually only resell immaculate cars, regardless of age. So if it testdrives good an all the fluids are nice and bright, and the mileage seems correct (as per the carfax) then I guess it's a good car.... I don't know about the price though. Considering that it hasn't been driven much then it might have $5000 of maintenance-free life in it, but then again you could have still had the bushings dry-rot and dealers won't replace that stuff unless the car drifts b/c of it and you complain "i won't buy it unless you fix the drifting problem"
