The speedo being off could be a big issue, my advice, no matter how well you know the person selling it ... RUN A CARFAX!! It may uncover things that your friend didn't even know about. (Ex. Salvage Title, Odometer Rollback, Major Accident, Inspection Failures, etc.). Also, have the car checked out by either your local mechanic, or a Nissan Dealer ... it may cost you around $80, but they would run it on a Consult scanner, check under the hood, and who better to look at a Nissan, than a Factory Certified Master Technician. Its always best to have someone who knows a lot about the car look at it so they can point out things that you may not have noticed.
