As specialist buyers of Japan vehicles, we have deep knowledge of Nissan's engineering history dating back to 1933.Major Japanese automaker. Altima, Sentra, Rogue, and Pathfinder are popular. Also makes Z sports car and GT-R.
Nissan has long been a key player in the Mainstream market. However, like all machinery, they eventually reach end-of-life.The Altima, in particular, is a vehicle we frequently purchase.When the time comes, it's crucial to sell to a buyer who understands the salvage value of the components.
Model Specific Insight:

- Aluminum Content: Many Altima parts are aluminum, which trades higher than steel.
