im looking at buying the NAH, but am curious as to what this warming up the electric engine is about. is it on cold days only? does the remote have a start button so you can warm up the car before you go outside? can the oil be changed, etc by a regular tech with no hybrid exp. or should everything be one at a dealer? has anyone seen a red NAH? has anyone had to replace the electric engine, if so, how much was it?

The filter location is the same as the standard 2.5L Altima. The only difference is that you will need to use the right oil. Many are using 0W-20 Mobile 1 Synthetic that you can get at Walmart. The dealer will charge you a lot for a proper oil change with the synthetic. Your best bet is to do it yourself (keep receipts and notes on mileage). Next best is to bring your own oil to a mechanic. For everything else, it's probably best to stick to the dealer, especially during the warranty period. Yes, I see a red NAH all the time in my garage. Once in a while I see it from the driver's seat when my wife lets me drive it. I doubt anyone has had to replace the electric engine yet. The car is too new. If they did, it was probably defective and replaced under warranty. Most people are concerned with having to eventually replace the hybrid battery pack, not the actual electric engine. Good luck in your search. |

I bought a fully loaded 2008 NAH Black interior and exterior and got it for $500 over invoice from Bruce Bennett Nissan. I think that's a good deal for me because I live in northern NJ and all the dealers here would barely budge from MSRP because the fact is, over here people are paying MSRP for them. I went an hour away to western Connecticut. Basically I called, told him what I was willing to pay, he agreed, listed all the fees and final cost, and that was that. Plus they had it on the lot and there was no waiting for shipment and they got it ready for me the same day I called.

I brought a 08 NAH Majestic blue exterior and frost interior, with convenience package, it seems like frost only goes with convenience, and moon roof and floor mats for 28779 out the door. At Connell Nissan Costa Mesa California. The msrp was around 28,600 I believe. If you call, Ask for Juan, he'll get you a good deal, no need to haggle. I was offered this price right when I called in.

Replying to: occking (Sep 18, 2008 3:19 pm) My salesman wasn't there but real curious to see if they really think they would sell that price for anything close to what they are asking. Makes me feel pretty good about the two that I purchased last March, each on at approx invoice price, less the at the time $1250 rebate, less 2 x $2350 I will get back from IRS when I file taxes next year. Plus, when I trade my Subaru Tribeca in on one of the vehicles got a good trade in of $16,000. I could not imagine how much lower that trade in would be today! |
