So after my failures of trying to locate a descent used Xterra Off-road in my area I've decided to buy a new Pro-4X, Nissan is now offering 72 months at 0% financing so it's a good time to do it.
Anyhow. The dealer has to order it so I can't see the Lava red with my own eyes before I decide color, so I need input from people who have seen it.
In some pictures it looks like it has quite a bit of orange in it, especially in the Nissan promotion pictures. This is what I like. However, in other pictures, it looks much more red, almost towards a bluish red, with very little or no orange. This I DON'T like.
See this example, the SAME image side to side from Nissan promotion material, but they are different colors. The orange one is from nissanusa.com, the other one from a nissan dealer.
I love mine. I haven't done any crazy mods yet. Sliders will be ordered very soon. Here she is when I just got her and took her to Death Valley for the first time.
Not a total thread jack (my '05 X is Red Brawn Pearl, also with a 2" lift), but how do you like your Cooper ATPs? Highway manners? Offroad? I was looking at the Cooper AT3s, but Discount Tire will give a good price on their ATP (exclusive to them).
Just how rare is Lava Red? Oddly enough, I originally was looking for the darker "brick red" I think it was Xterra. I don't know if they even made Pro 4Xs in that color. I'm super happy with the Lava Red I bought.
There are some seriously beautiful pics in here! I have to say, I wasn't originally all that keen on the red when I was shopping, but once I looked at it in person, it was much prettier than expected. Damn near perfectly matches a Yamaha R6 I just sold last year. Shame too, they would have paired up nicely.
I've only had her for 2 weeks now (maybe 3) and I love it. Last weekend I took her on a brief play date in the mud in some foothills nearby. Here she is on her first playdate (boyfriend's Tacoma in the background). Mods are in the works but for now this is my red menace.
