As a long time Datsun \ Nissan owner that has a huge amount of respect for the company, this is unfortunate to read. They gambled on the new 400Z and it appears to not have paid off, but I see lots of Versas, Sentras and Altimas on the road so I am surprised their sales are actually down.
They are THE only Japanese company to take on Porsche and have the Germans against the ropes for years.
In the '70s and '80s they were unstoppable, Toyota could barely keep up. Honda was a completely different market sector.
Sad to see the financial wreck the company is in.

One of the first cars I owned was a Nissan (mid 80s). I owned it for more than 6 years and it didn't skip a beat. Zero issues!
