Nissan buys '96 Maxima after epic CL ad and video, fully restores car and follows up

Initial video posted by guy selling his 96 Maxima on Craiglist
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fr6FklMc6B0



It went viral enough (2 mil views) that it caught Nissan's attention and they bought the car, made a donation to Wounded Warrior Project in the seller's name, then fully restored it based on the suggestions of the public. Here is the followup video they did of the car when it was done, also filmed by the guy who sold it to them originally
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0YN_gTu0brk



Bravo, seller dude, and bravo, Nissan.
