Because, to me, it's the best 4-door anything Nissan has every built. I thought the power, 6-speed manual, HID's and heated leather in the 2003 was the greatest thing ever when I bought it, but this loaded SV Sport is just in anoher world.

I hit him. I was passing him right after a rain storm went through. With the road spray coming off of him I never saw the standing water on the left side of my lane. I saved it from pulling me into the center barrier, then it hooked back to the right and I hit him in his left-front wheel then my c-pillar got the lower front edge of his trailer and blew in my back window before I straightened it out. I only wanted to be getting a gen 7 next year.

It was a 6-speed. Drove stick for 8 1/2 years. Gotta say, I'm not missing it with everything else there is to play with on this thing!
