I've been on the hunt for the "right" Xterra for me for a long time. I've been in no hurry, as I have a 2007 Frontier King Cab Nismo (Off Road) in fantastic condition.
I have come close to buying two or three Xs in the past 6 months, but none met my high standards.
But I'm really picky. I want low miles and great condition. Especially considering the prices these days... it needs to be really great to get me to pull the trigger.
Well, I found one on carmax about 2 weeks ago, but it was far, far away. I locked it up by scheduling a test drive a week out and then delayed once while I considered.
And today I paid to have them ship it across the USA for me... once it gets here I'll be able to inspect it and make a real decision.
I really hope this is the ONE for me.
It is a metallic blue Pro-4X with a manual transmission, 2014 with under 50k miles.
The pictures all look great, but I have learned cars always looks better in the pictures. It will be interesting to see how it really looks.
The potential negatives that might make be back out...
Carfax says it's been in a "minor accident". Can't really evaluate that without seeing it in person.
Rust... I'm in San Diego, and I want a really clean underside. I won't be able to evaluate that till it gets here.
Other hidden damage or issues.
But I'm really hoping this one checks out. I put some money in for the shipping... so I have some skin in "the game".
I'm not a fan of the pinstripes... I'm hoping I can remove them.
But I'm excited!
