Turned out to be a 02/13 build, driver had been a smoker, no CHAdeMO port, and the warranty was from CarMax where he'd bought it. So, had to pass. :cry:

Perfect, that's what I figured. As always, thanks LeftieBiker!!

Looking at a 2013 LEAF today. Seller said when he bought the car new he paid an extra $1500 for an extended warranty because he didn't know what to expect with an electric car. He's claiming the warranty is good for another six years and he believes it includes the battery. I didn't want to...

Attempting to understand the significance/value of a car being CPO. A used car lot near me advertises all of their cars as Certified Pre-Owned. Does that have any value if the cars are not actually at the Nissan dealer? Thanks!

I would love to try the charger-to-charger method if possible. I need spousal by-in to spend a whole weekend day on such and adventure (that may not pan out if I don't buy the car) and she's not quite completely onboard yet.

Thanks Sage. I have been looking into these online car buying portals in desperation. Vroom is one, Carvana another. The latter doesn't show images of the GOM, so not sure how people are determining which LEAFs are worth it; guess they're just counting on the return policy.

Did this outfit go out of business?

How did it go? I just went through this with a dealership in my town yesterday. I thought what the heck, it's the last day of the month so why not try. They're asking $10,800 before taxes and fees for a 2013 S (built after March) with 40K miles. It's been on their lot for 170+ days. It has...

Sorry, I was thinking that the B driving mode incorporated regenerative braking, and I didn't think B mode was an option in 2011. I take it I have all of my terms mixed up?

Thanks everyone. The reason I ask is someone local is quoting me KBB price on a 2011 (SL with QC and regen braking) that only has 6 bars/40 mile range left. He says that it's in great shape otherwise and I believe him, but I feel as though KBB can't take remaining battery life into...

What's everyone impression when it comes to the accuracy of KBB and LEAFs? Do you think they are using the same criteria for their estimates that they use for ICE cars?

Perfect, thanks so much for the explanations and the advice! I'll reach out to the Leafspy dev. I live in Reno, NV. My commute is 7 miles one way, and my employer has free charging stations for the foreseeable future. So it's almost rude of me NOT to drive a LEAF as my commuter. ;)

Hi again, another noob question. I have been scouring the forum and the Youtubes trying to find explanations for the different acronyms that are mentioned when Leafspy is discussed, like SOC, AHr, etc, and frankly more importantly, what values are good or bad values to see! I bet it's been...

Great, thanks everyone! This will dramatically increase my potential buying market. :D

I'm talking about the kind from UHaul that utilizes the front wheels only. I ask because I'm probably going to need to go beyond the single-charge driving range of a Leaf to buy one. I've found charging stations along possible routes, but for the sake of spousal approval I'd prefer just to...
