I highly doubt those selling their 09s for 100k are doing so because the used market is privy to a few box failures

The reality is, what has driven down resale is chiefly the market, cost of funds when leasing a used car, and most importantly the fact 70k of that new car price tag are taxes the dealer doesn't have to pay when buying new stock - why would a dealer offer you 120k for your 09 on trade in when a brand new car from nissan aus costs less than that

  • Thought you might be interested in this extended warranty quote. FULL warranty seems to be on offer at a very reasonable price. Too good to be true???

  • Hi David .
    Terry is on holidays for two weeks but I can give you the prices,
    for an extended 3 year warranty on the GTR up to 100,000km it is $1085 inc gst
    for an extended 3 year warranty on the GTR up to 150,000km it is $1450 inc gst
    the warranty is identical to new car warranty and roadside assistance is included as well.

Bought the car from interstate. Can i just go to a nissan dealer in WA and see them about it?

Of course mate. I bought my 2010 from WA, shipped to Brisbane, QLD :P

GT-R service centres are universal Aus wide, thats why there are so few of them.

So dropped the GTR off over @ Moorooka this morning and had a chat with the service manager there. He indicated they do not provide extended warranties, however he was interested to find out the details of how Rockingham Nissan can offer it.

Not that I'm overly worried, they also don't seem to be very mod friendly @ Moorooka either so installing Willall parts and maintaining warranty is NEG. Maybe other dealers will take the risk on mods, but its clear Moorooka will not.

"they also don't seem to be very mod friendly @ Moorooka either so installing Willall parts and maintaining warranty is NEG. Maybe other dealers will take the risk on mods, but its clear Moorooka will not."

The dealer does not "take the risk", as soon as you identify a possible warrantable item, the first thing that the dealer does is send off the warranty request to Nissan Australia.

Nissan Australia says yea or nay to your warranty claim, not the dealer.

I had a component eventually replaced under warranty (which took over 5 months) and the entire time the dealer made it very clear that the issue was not in their hands, but up to Nissan Austarlia to decide if they were going to approve it or not.

Maybe there is a $ limit up to which the dealer can approve them selves, but i doubt that any drive line items affected by mods fall into this category.

Unsurprisingly I am now having difficulty getting Rockingham Nissan to honour the email. Something about new underwriters blah, blah.....

I'll keep you posted.

I'm not surprised. Mark (service manager @ Moorooka) mentioned that they use Allianz for underwriting their warranties, and he said had no idea how Rockingham were able to provide said warranty extensions... I gave him a copy of the email in this thread when I picked up my GTR from service. He said he would have a chat with the Rockingham peoples to find out more because he would love to do it if they could.. That was 4.20pm this arvo..

    • You are perhaps suggesting that it is not a super car? Well....it's not an AU.
    • Dropped the MX5 of this morning to get the hardtop colour matched and some PDR done, they are also going to give it a buff to remove some "stubborn" swirl marks and light scratches in the clear coat Over the last few months the poor little thing has copped some shopping centre car park abuse, I try to not park in them, but hitting Westfield's a few times over the last few months has taken its toll, nothing really bad, but enough of a trigger for a "while we're in there" thingie  Once it's back and all the one colour, with a few dents and mark's removed I'll give some of these products a go and see what they're like  
    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.
