General Notes

The odometer reads a bit over 115,000. Most of these miles (at least 90,000) are highway miles from a far commute I did for a few years.
Automatic transmission with tiptronic.
I have paperwork for all service done (excluding some oil changes).
Only forms of payment accepted will be cash or bank check (no personal checks or money orders).
Car must be picked up in Smithtown.. I am willing to meet at a local bank to complete the transaction.

Condition

Original "Liquid Silver" paint.
No major accidents.
Black leather interior.
Cosmetically, the car is in great condition.. especially for its age. There are a few nicks from commuting, and a small dent below the front license plate where I tapped a low metal post. The interior has always been kept clean with regular vacuuming, shampooing of carpets, and conditioning leather seats. It was washed regularly (usually by myself), no less than once every 2-3 weeks, even in winters.
I'm the second owner of the vehicle. It was purchased at around 8,000 miles, and the first owner drove it in rural Pennsylvania.
Since about January, there has been a problem where the ABS light stays on. I took it to a mechanic who said a sensor would have to be replaced at a cost of $700 or so, but at the cost, suggested there wasn't really a logical reason to have the work done.
The car was bumped in a parking lot about a year ago on the back left corner of the bumper. There was absolutely no structural damage done, and some paint-work and detailing fixed this up (see first picture below).

Maintenance History

Four matching Michelin MXV4 tires rated at 60,000 miles were put on 5,000 miles ago (11/2010).
The windshield was replaced at about 80,000 miles on the count of a pebble crack.
Timing chain and timing chain tensioners fully replaced at 58,000 (6/2009). This was done because of a known issue with this model that I encountered, and so it was fully covered under my 60,000 mile warranty from Nissan.
Synthetic oil changes were done no more than every 5,000 miles. Only filled with premium (93 octane) gasoline.

Other Features

Has a sliding moon roof (not the long glass window in some models that can't be opened).
In addition to the standard carpeted floor mats, the car comes with thick, heavy-duty all-weather floor mats. I typically use them in the winter, and throw them in the trunk during the summer.
Fog lights have been upgraded to yellow bulbs.. really helps vision in the rain/snow.
Xenon headlights.
Heated seats
6 CD changer
Wired for satellite radio
Cassette deck

Thanks
k
