More Nissan for me!

But yeah, Nissan seems to be making some nicer cars lately. Hopefully they can shake off the bad stigma gained by Goghn's cost cutting and bad cvts. Plus, Nissan actually makes electric cars, something Honda, I don't believe, has even attempted yet. They had a sweet deal with GM, and they dropped the partnership. Nissans got the Leaf and Aria, and there's rumors of them using Mitsubishi's hybrid system in the upcoming years.

I do worry about Nissan's future when they seem to be about this close to operating with zero profits.
