Introduction
Nissan Altima -2007 Review: Growing up can be hard, but not necessarily only for the one growing. Think about the second-string high school football player who is suddenly overshadowed by his younger brother, the new starting quarterback, or the financially-stable parent who needs a second mortgage to put Junior through college. Now you've understand the plight of the Nissan Maxima, a model that has been pushed one inch closer to the edge of redundancy with the debut of the 2007 Nissan Altima. Already a near duplicate in the areas of style, power, and size, the updated Altima takes each aspect up a notch, not to mention it courts suitors with more options and a wider price range. Which begs the question - Maxi what?
What We Drove
Nissan delivered our test car without a window sticker, so we used Autobytel's research section to calculate the retail price of the Metallic Jade (light green) Altima in our parking lot. We came up with $23,065, which included the 2.5 S's $19,800 base price, $615 for delivery, $500 for a continuously-variable automatic transmission (CVT), and $2,150 for a Convenience Plus package. That last bundle included a power driver's seat, automatic headlights, illuminated vanity mirrors, a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls, a cargo net and tie-downs, a remote, a power sunroof, and 16-inch alloy wheels.

Mazda 5 -- 2006 Review: This is not a new idea for the United States. Mini-minivans proliferated in the late 1980s and early 1990s, bobbing helplessly in the wake of the resoundingly successful Dodge Caravan and Plymouth Voyager.
Sumitomo HTR+ Review on a Mazda RX8
I was forced to start looking at potential replacements for the stock Bridgestone Potenza RE040 (225/45/18) slightly after hitting 25,000 miles on them. I was hard pressed by economic reasons to find the cheapest possible tires that would offer a similar or higher tread life (higher was better) and a decent level of performance on dry surfaces, as well as wet.

Affordable Performance Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25-T
In 1993 the all new Nissan Skyline R33 GTS25-T replaced the successful R32 GTS- T. Little brother to the all conquering GTR the GTS25-T is more affordable and still a thrilling ride. It features a more modern new shape with smooth lines rather than the sharp edges of the previous model. The new looks were debatable some liked the newer styling of the R33 and some preferred the harder edges of the R32.

The Buzz of Street Racing
What is it about street racing that just drives teenagers and young adults out of their wits? Even the most uninterested person will have to admit that, in some way, speed still provides an exciting rush unparalleled by any human feeling. Why else would there be numerous movies and video games created to tell the story of, or simulate street racing?

New Sound for your Nissan with Custom Subwoofer Boxes
Picking up your Nissan and driving it straight out of the dealer can be a wonderful moment in life. Whether you?ve chosen a Nissan Pathfinder, Nissan Sentra, Nissan Altima, or even a Nissan Z, it?s an instance in life you?ll never forget. You put it in gear, step on the gas, turn up the tunes, and hit the road. It?s possible though that there is a little something missing. Where is the boom of the bass that you thought would be there? Granted, Nissan installs a wonderful stock Bose system that sounds as clear as the morning birds, but occasionally it?s just not enough. Sometimes you?ve just got to get more boom out of your system, and we?ve got the answer.
