I've put another 150 kms on her, and am getting a lot of looks. I haven't seen another '05 or '06 on the roads around here, and I don't imagine I'll see many KC's because everyone wants the CC.
Yep snowman, stores 4 cars with an office, thats the reason I bought this place outside the city.
But now I think I need more shop space, so I'm trying to convince the'o (the 'o' lady) that our next priority is to build a new outbuilding behind the house, it's a slow process tho'.
Yep spidey, that was me on your thread, I paid $33200 + freight, PDI, and tax for LE KC. No leather, I think the CC NISMO costs about a grand more than CC LE 4X4 and you get Bilstein shocks, skid plates and locking diff. instead of 17" wheels, step rails, and compass/thermometer on LE CC. I don't believe you can get the leather pkg (about $2500) in the NISMO. So no power/heated seats. Both come with a 380W Rockford-Fosgate audio system and 10 speakers, incl. subs. The LE CC leather pkg. also includes the side and curtain airbags, that are standard on the NISMO and KC LE, as well as the VDC, HDC, and HSA standard on the KC and NISMO.
When I asked in Nov. for a silver '05 LE KC there wasn't one to be found in the province, so I asked for the '06 in silver, and after 2 weeks of no cooperation with a dealer trade got the last one. I wasn't going to wait 3 months like they asked for one from the factory. I think the NISMO are even more rare, but if you aren't fussy, the finance rates on the' 05s are 1.8%- 3.8%, on the '06's they jump to 2.8-4.8%. 1% =approx. $600 over 3 years on full total sum financed.
I tried the Toyota & Dakota, I didn't get the same solid feel from either. IMO, the Nissan LE excels in pull, and cornering, as well as esthetics. Bumpy like a truck on potholes but flattens large bumps effectively. I imagine with the Bilsteins and offroad tires the NISMO will feel different than the LE, so I suggest you try both in your travels.
