Check Out Former F1 Driver Mika Salo Drifting a 700HP Nissan 200SX
Proving that Formula One drivers can make the cut in most types of motorsports even in their after-years, former Finnish racing driver Mika Juhani Salo sat behind the wheel of a Nissan 200SX drift car.
The GT2 class winner of the 2008 and 2009 24 Hours of Le Mans had no problem harnessing the 700-horses (and 850Nm) found under the hood of the 1999 Nissan S14 coupe.
Watch him in action at Ahvenisto race circuit in Hämeenlinna, Finland, in the video that follows after the break.

Moscow Man Tries to Drive Nissan Through a Train Crossing for Pedestrians…
Today, your daily dose of Russian madness comes courtesy of a stubborn driver of a Nissan Teana sedan (loosely related to the older generation Maxima) who for some reason was hell bent to drive over a pedestrian crossing on a train track in Moscow.
Not surpri
singly, the car got stuck on the train tracks and being front wheel drive, he couldn't pedal his way out of this situation. Some by-passers quickly came out to help push the Teana back but as soon as they heard the train approaching they left him to watch the disaster that was bound to happen.

Dissatisfied Nissan Customer Plows Showroom with a Suzuki Grand Vitara in Russia!
There's no doubt we've all experienced a minor meltdown moment while dealing with car repair shops at one point or another, but for some reason, one man decided to take his frustration to a whole new level when he literally destroyed an entire showroom!
It all happened this past Saturday at an official Nissan dealership in Moscow, Russia, with the entire scene being captured on film by a surveillance camera located inside the building.
We managed to find the preliminary Russian police report, which says the unnamed man left his car for repair on April 1, and came to pick it up on April 7.
"Showroom staff reported that the car is repaired, but after waiting several hours, the car owner did not see it," reads the (translated) report.

After last month's announcement that its UK plant in Sunderland will produce a mainstream B-segment compact car based on the Invitation concept we saw at the 2012 Geneva Salon, Nissan today revealed that it will manufacture yet another new model at the factory from 2014.
The Japanese automaker said that the vehicle in question would be the company’s entry in the mid-size hatchback segment, or in other words, a direct rival for the Ford Focus, VW Golf and Citroen C4 models.

A Video Walkaround of the New 2013 Nissan Altima Sedan
Nissan's presence at the ongoing 2012 New York Auto Show is marked by the world premiere of the 2013 Altima mid-size sedan, which is a very important model for the Japanese automaker.
In 2011, the current Altima ranked as the second best-selling passenger car in the U.S behind the Toyota Camry. Nissan believes that the new model can do even better.

2013 Nissan Altima Sedan Pictures Leak Online, Looks Like a Mini Maxima
We're not sure if Nissan was planning to reveal its next-gen Altima sedan ahead of the car's world premiere at the New York Auto Show on Wednesday, April 4, but either way, a first batch of pictures along with preliminary specs and prices were unloaded online today.
The new Altima sports a sleeker and crispier design than its predecessor, evidently inspired from the larger Maxima. The mid-size sedan's interior is also new, but appears to be less exciting than the exterior in terms of styling.
"The safe thing to do would be to follow other automakers' paths, conservatively evolving the Altima so as not to upset the existing owner base. But that would not be in keeping with Nissan's 'Innovation for All' philosophy," commented Brian Carolin, Vice President of Nissan N.A.
"We took our most successful model and changed nearly everything – the look, the feel, the driving experience and, of course, the technology down to even the headlights and windshield wipers."

U Spot: Nissan GT-R Station Wagon in Portugal
An estate model isn't something most people would normally notice, unless it rides on huge wheels, sitting very low to the ground and features the front of a Nissan GT-R R35; that's a combo bound to draw the attention of any petrolhead...
One such model rightfully caught the eye of Carscoop reader Daniel Esteves, who snapped a couple of shots and sent them over our way.

Senner Tuning Supercharges the Nissan 350Z to 405-Horses
Despite the availability of the newer Nissan 370Z, the 350Z remains a solid choice for enthusiasts looking for a fast and good-looking sports car with rear-wheel drive dynamics.
Now, if for some reason the stock 3.5-liter V6 with 276hp (280PS) and 363Nm (268 lb-ft) of the early 350Zs seems a little too soft for your tastes, German aftermarket firm Senner Tuning has introduced a new performance package for both the coupe and roadster models of the series.

2013 Nissan Altima Teaser No5 Gives us a Quick Round Up of the Exterior and Instrument Panel
For each of the past five weeks, Nissan has been providing a cryptic video highlighting certain design elements of its all-new 2013 Altima sedan.
Now, in what is probably the last teaser before the official unveiling of the mid-size model at the 2012 New York Auto Show next Wednesday, Nissan has dropped a 19-second long clip.
The video spins around the Altima's exterior before it zooms out to show us the instrument panel and the new 'Nissan Advanced Drive Assist Display' system, which the company says, "brings relevant information closer to eye level keeping your eyes on the road."
To help you get a better view of the 2013 Altima's exterior design, we've snapped some shots from the video that you can check out in the gallery after the break.

Corvette Z06 Chases a Nissan GT-R Around the Track Until it Surrenders
What Nissan has managed to do with the R35 GT-R is nothing short of amazing, as the Japanese carmaker's flagship model has become the de facto standard in the sports car world upon which all other vehicles are judged.
Of course, we should never forget that another important factor that weighs in at any type of race is the driver and how capable he or she is behind the wheel.
The video that follows, isn't a race per se, as the drivers of the Corvette Z06 and Nissan GT-R running at the MotorSport Ranch Performance Car Country Club in Texas were probably there to do some hot laps around the track, but still, the chase that ensued makes for a pretty interesting watch.

The new promotion kicked off last Friday, March 23, and will continue through this Friday, March 30. Up until today, AutoNation Direct has sold 18 vehicles.

Many of you might remember that one of the most important changes to the new model year Nissan GT-R (sold as a 2013MY in North America, and a 2012MY in Europe and other parts of the world) was the addition of a new, street-legal track-focused edition named Track Pack.
At the time, Nissan told us that the GT-R Track Pack would be available exclusively for right-hand drive models in Japan, the United Kingdom, Australia and South Africa, with sales starting this month.
Either Nissan changed its mind or the company was holding back on us because we learned that the GT-R Track Pack will be available on left-hand drive cars as well with production to begin in May.
"The vehicle will be available on Left hand drive version from May production," Christophe Amblard, a product manager for Nissan Europe, told Carscoop. "It will be available for the same markets as in the GT-R is sold currently except for Russia and Ukraine," he added.

A couple of weeks back, we told you about the rumors regarding Nissan's plans to revive its Datsun brand for emerging markets. Today, Renault-Nissan Alliance CEO Carlos Ghosn made it official during a visit to Indonesia where he met with the country's president Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono.
While addressing the media, Ghosn announced the return of the Datsun brand, which will become Nissan's third global brand after Nissan and Infiniti, while also revealing the firm's new logo.

AMS Performance's 1,602awhp Nissan GT-R Runs the 1/4 Mile in a Record Breaking 8.63 Seconds!
After breaking the world record for the fastest Nissan R35 GT-R at the Texas Mile event last October with its Alpha 12 model that reached a top speed of 216.9mph (349km/h), AMS Performance has shuttered yet another record.
This time, the aftermarket-tuning house brought its new Alpha Omega GT-R, which was recently dyno'ed at 1,602 all-wheel horsepower with a maximum torque of 1,152 lb-ft (1,562Nm), to the drag strip.
The monstrous R35 completed the quarter mile sprint in a blazingly fast 8.6263 seconds with an exit speed of 173.8mph (279.7km/h) on the first run of the day, setting a new world record, according to AMS Performance.

While straight-line races in a protected environment like a drag strip are considered relatively safe compared to other forms of racing, that doesn't necessarily make them fool-proof as things can go wrong for a great number of reasons.
In this quarter mile race between two Nissan GT-R coupes, one of the drivers lost control of the car shortly after taking off and began turning around missing both walls by inches. Very lucky indeed.
Head past the jump to watch the video clip.
