My Car: 1983 Nisan Sentra
Cons:
127,000 Miles but looks more like 227,000 Miles.
Missing a passanger side Mirror.
Speedometer, Gas Meter, are warped from car baking in the sun.
Interior is also warped and wore down from baking in the sun.
Car is rusting and the paint is peeling.
Car only plays radio.
Cannot get in through drivers door must climb through passanger side door into drivers.
Passanger door does not open to get out you must climb through drivers door.
Cannot ajust seats.
Car often does not start for the first 5 minutes and if you come to a complete stop usually the car will cut off and you will need to restart the car.
Passanger window is off track so if you roll down the window the window will fall down into the door.
If you lock the passanger door and then shut it, the passanger door will unlock. You must shut and then lock it.
Drivers door lock is missing so you cannor lock or unlock it.
Horn does not work nither, do hazards.
Windshield is cracked all over the drivers and passanger side.
Goes from 0 to 40 in 10 seconds.
When going at a speed of 50+ and you make a turn the car jumps and it feels as if the car is comming off the body.
When you put the car into park (if its still on after stopping) and turn the car off the car shakes uncontrolably for around one minute and seems like its getting ready for blast off.
Wipers go past the drivers side and end up sticking making it impossible to drive when it is raining.
Exaust pipe waves and almost drages on the ground.
Nither AC or heat work.
Pros:
Ummm.....
It starts sometimes?
Automatic (but doesnt always go into the gear that was chosen).
Quite frankly the car is a POS and having to drive through the city is my nightmare. In order to get to work i need to go through it everyday. Just yesterday i was traveling down bragg blvd and came on a red light. The car shutdown and i quickly put it back into park and then tried turning the key but it wouldn't start! I tried my hazards forgetting that they don't work and waving my arm for the cars behind me to go around. A granny with frost white hair and huge thick bottle cap glasses pulls up slows down, looks at me, looks down at my car flips us both off and then speeds away pummeling my car with the pebbles that tremble in her wake. I had to get this car because i was in a time crunch new job and needed a car. So my friends brother was selling it and i talked to them and they said it ran perfectly....THEY LIED! I spent $450 on this car and unfortunately when i tried to return it in 3 DAYS they said they had spent the money and i noticed a pretty red Mustang in their yard. On top of that I figured owning the car would make it much cheaper insurance wise. But apparently because of everything wrong with it and the color and the age my ONE MONTH PREMIUM IS $399.81!!!! The car has screwed the pouch so many times that i have been written up for being late or not being able to go in at all. When my boss asked why i don't just get a new car i showed her my check (for $202.01) Took off my hat and said "Tips appreciated". I thought hey maybe i can sell it for scrap metal but apparently ill only get $50 if i'm lucky.
