I never said they are great. I replied that they are killing it in sales or that their sales are great, which was a retort to you saying they stopped making good cars, implying the market would seem to be disagreeing with you, to which you countered that Nissan is manipulating sales with dirty sales tactics by selling cars to subprime buyers, to which I countered, and here we are..

I never said that it was dirty sales tactics. I also didnt claim that a majority of their sales were subprime. I said they CATERED to first time buyers and subprime customers as well as people who probably shouldn't be getting the loans they do when nissan throws a whole ton of cash on the hood. The actual reporting numbers are skewed anyways as subprime who get a good or even average cosigner are often no longer considered subprime. Especially when titling and buyer vs cobuyer comes in to play. First time buyers with just enough credit but nothing long established aren't considered subprime either. That article doesn't take a lot of things in to consideration.
Point is, anything exciting and innovative died a while ago in the nissan brand. Every now and then a neat concept comes out but their current stable is a snoozefest save the GTR, which is great, but long overdue for a changeup.
Enjoy whatever nissan you have or are buying!!!!
