03 Spec V

SentraRacer97 · Sep 16th, 2002, 01:00 AM

Has anyone here heard anything about the new 03 Spec Vs yet? Did they fix any of the problems the 02 had? I'm getting a brand new car in 2-4 months and i'm looking at the 03 spec v. So I need some insight on the new 03 models. Reply back soon thanx

1st and 2nd gear are longer, the tranny has been reworked, and the oil consumption is fixed (they say). Oh yeah they fixed that problem with the seats to...........they got rid of the red!

How could they have fixed the oil consumption problem when they never admitted that there was an oil consumption problem?

And the seats? Opinions are like assholes and they all stink.

Stick to fact my friend.

Wow simmer down a little, notice the little smiley, yes thats right, it means it's all in good fun!

They have taken many a car in for oil consumtion testing! Now wether or not they admit to fixing anything is one thing, but I'm sure they took a hard look at the problem and corrected it! Is it a fact, no, can I assume that they have addressed the issue, sure!

Not hot or I probably would have typed in all CAPS. I just wanted to point out OFFICIALLY Nissan doesn't recognize any oil consumption problem with the Spec V.

I was just givin ya a hard time

Actually, my 2003 has 2 chips in the paint already

I was kinda asking for it though.. going 120km/hr, then changing lanes.. not knowing that there was loose rocks on the road because they were doing some maintenance. Luckily, the dealer is sending me a free tube of touchup paint this week

As for oil consumption, ill probably hit 1000km's tomorrow or the next day.. ill check the oil tomorrow and ill let you guys know.

Is yellow a color choice for 03? What kind of seats did they go with instead of the lava? Is leather an option?

yes yellow is a color choice for 03, the spec -v only i believe.
Oh and i checked my oil today.. im at 1038km's, and the oil level is right smack dab in the middle between L and H.
