I was talking to a friend this morning and he told me that the enigine in the Nissan Platina is made by Renault:
I don't think it's true. Can anyone confirm if Renault makes any engine for this or any other Nissan?

actually renault owns nissan. And i believe they designed the vq engine themselves.
They own Nissan?? Since when??Originally Posted by scottie300z

Not too long ago. a few years ago, i dont remember the exact year.
Damn, that's news to me. I didn't know Renault was big or rich enough to buy a company like Nissan.Originally Posted by scottie300z

1999, it's an "alliance"
of course an "alliance" where Ghosn was put in charge of Nissan by Renault to turn them around and who is now in charge at Renault
"A woman without curves is like a road without bends, you might get to your destination quicker but the ride is boring as hell'
i remember reading somewhere that renault actually owns a majority share in nissan now. They bought some shares but not a majority in 99 when nissan was having trouble and started the alliance and helped turn them around by cutting the amount of models and engines to save money. thats why so many nissans use the vq now and why it was designed in the first place, to be used by many different vehicles. And then they decided to buy more, and now they own nissan b/c the bought a majority amount of stock. but that is just from what i remember, i may be wrong.
Not sure how accurate this pic is, but it's better than nothing

Honda is Acura, same reason they didn't include Infiniti, but no idea why they put Lexus in. Honda pwns because they don't even need alliances to keep them going. And what does Samsung have to do with cars?Originally Posted by GT F1
