Shinobi BMW
My Other Car
I have now owned this car for 19 years and 10 months!

Ha Ha Ha...no kidding, THIS is my first and only other car I've ever had. Its a 1991 Nissan Sentra E (base model) that I bought back in November of 1990. When I bought the car, I promised my parents I would keep it for 10 years at least. Well, I kept my promise and didn't pick up my Bimmer until over 10 years had passed. I've had problems over the years, but she's still running today. She's my backup car, but I wasn't driving her much at all after I got the BMW. Lately though, I've been using her to go to work to save gas. Its so slow, I can't help but be fuel efficient!

So, what are the specs? When I said base model, I meant it. This car has a 3-speed (three!) automatic, with a 1.6L engine, 110HP and 108ft/lbs. of torque. Last I checked though, it does 0-60 in like 12 seconds. Air Conditioning was an option I had to pay for ($800). It did not come with a radio. I had to ask for the right side mirror (it wasn't standard). The automatic came with a package that included tilt steering and power steering (non-standard). I later changed the wheels, added the spoiler, tinted the windows, put on a leather steering wrap and a CD changer, but that's pretty much it.

Well, the roof liner is falling apart, the A/C doesn't work anymore, the 2 visors are messed up, half the interior lights are busted, the passenger door lock is broken, the radio doesn't work and neither does the CD changer...but hey, she's still going! Its paid for, its mine and I'm keeping her for as long as I can.
