Hi,   I am the one who ask Karen to start the club. Let me introduce myself.   I own a 2001 I30t in Midlight Blue/Biege interior. It has navigation and sport package and also wood kit. The ownership experience so far is the best. When I bought the car 2 weeks ago, I bought it for $600 under invoice.   I know the I35 is coming out in October. But below invoice price is too good to pass by.   Nice to meet you all.   Karen, these 2 chat times are good for me:Tuesdays: 4:00-5:00 pm PT/7:00-8:00pm ET   -or-   Thursdays: 5:00-6:00pm PT/8:00-9:00pm ET

I just picked up my I30L last night. Also midnight blue w/beige. It's gorgeous! but its been raining so its a little hard to enjoy. Paid about $500 under invoice too, but I don't think i got as much for my trade as it was really worth. So far I really love the car, but experience is limited. More as I drive it.

Hello! Purchased my I30L about 2 months ago. It is black/graphite. Love my car but the black exterior color does get dirty easily. I'm a little jealous about all these great deals people have talked about. Bought mine about 3% over invoice...must be my area (northern va). The dealership experience has been incredible though. I still have trouble controlling my acceleration, that engine is powerful!
#5 of 78 NEW I30 OWNER by jtiernan Jun 11, 2001 (7:05 pm)
I picked up my new I30 on 6/8. I like the car. Only 75 miles thus far. Very smooth, roomy. Good braking. Like the compass, rear shade, seats.   A few problems...rear license plate is loose. Dealer says that are all that way. Also, a tear in the trunk liner and the passenger seat belt sticks when releasing.   I look forward to sharing with other owners in the future.   Any idea on gas mileage and whether preium is really necessary?   Thanks, John Tiernan
#6 of 78 New I-30 (Luxury edition) Owner by laheat Jun 12, 2001 (8:40 pm)
Its been (3) weeks since I purchased mine (end of May). So far, WONDERFUL experience (1000K miles so far). Comfortable, fast, fairly good stereo system (BOSE is of course great - but a little disappointed in the "factory" Clarion radio.) Alpine would have been a better choice for I-30 and would have been worth the extra $$$. Anyway, great leather and comfort interior. BIG roomy trunk!!!!!! Paid 30K out the door, tax, plates included. Check your sunroofs - mine WAS NOT tinted (other then the standard factory tint like the side windows.) Paid $20 and got the sunroof window tinted barker - cuts down significantly on the heat when I leave the roof door open!   So far great car for the money from a great company (Nissan Motor Corp).   Nick
#7 of 78 2001 I30t by zeliforp Jun 15, 2001 (4:13 pm)
I purchased a fully-loaded (minus Nav) Titanium I30t with Touring Sport package (side sills and rear spoiler) a little over two months ago for "exactly" invoice. I feel like I received a good deal though because the dealer threw in a free after-purchase window tint for $0.   Excellent car thus far. The 17" wheels and side sills really give this car a different look. I swapped out the factory wheels for some Volk Racking AV3's, and I receive looks and positive comments on the car all of the time. The subwoofer had a buzzing sound coming from it after I purchased the car, but a trip to the dealer took care of that.   I have been looking for an aftermarket sound system (Nothing is wrong with Bose, but I'm a Mark Levinson kind of guy) that will integrate with the steering-wheel controls and I just found a kit that allows the I30's controls to work w/ almost any aftermarket setup. Next step is DVD/Nav. I too have heard about the upcoming I35, but snagging an I30 now for (all things considered) below invoice was just too good to pass up.

Hi, my name is Chris from Atlanta, GA. I just purchased an I30t about 2 weeks ago! I love this car. I am a big Maxima fan, but I could not resist the extras in the I30. The engine is basically the same, but the Interior is much richer. My interior is beige and beautiful. I might trade it in soon for the I35t, it just depends on the engine!

Are you selling your I30t wheels?
#10 of 78 Happy 2000 i30t owner by drc4ebg Jul 25, 2001 (12:42 pm)
Have not posted any messages for quite sometime now. I do report from time to time and so far I must tell you that am happy with the sedan and the service has been good. I was at the dealer to check on a cranny slip problem, (under 50%+ accelleration between 1st and 2nd or 2nd and 3rd). I told them about the service bulletin, Dec. 04, 2000, Ref. ITB00-028A (pertaining to built dates before Set. 28, 2000, and VIN's JNKCA31A1T015622). The service person was not happy to hear about the service bulletin, said "never heard of it". But Marty, the mechanic pulled it out of the data base and gave it to me and asked that I bring it in with my next service call,(service advisor is turning red by now, looks unprofessional and ignorant). I was happy to see a mechanic take an active role. I will bring him a bottle of wine. That's it for now, David in Torrance
