Zero-Mile Nissan Altima Fetches $3 Million in Bring-a-Trailer Auction

"...at least it came with a box of Hot Cheetos, so that's cool."

SAN FRANCISCO—In an astonishing turn of events that left car enthusiasts worldwide astounded, a brand-new 2006 Nissan Altima with absolutely zero miles on its odometer has fetched an incredible $3 million through a recent Bring-a-Trailer auction. This unexpected frenzy underscores the strange phenomenon of bring-a-trailer cars selling for wayyyyy more than they are worth.


Classic car historian Mark Thompson commented, "The remarkable state of preservation might make it worth like eight grand at best. It's just the base model 2.5! Why are we even talking about this?"


This 2006 Altima, meticulously conserved over nearly two decades, offers a nostalgic glimpse back to a time when family sedans embodied practicality and style. Vintage car expert Emily Hernandez further elaborated, "Collectors seek out historic artifacts that encapsulate an era's design, engineering, and cultural nuances. However, this Altima is none of those things. Still, the most surprising thing is that this car isn't clapped out. At least it came with a box of Hot Cheetos, so that's cool."


The groundbreaking sale challenges traditional norms and spotlights the evolving and extremely suspicious dynamics of the classic car market. This transaction showcases that impeccable preservation can elevate even the most excruciatingly ordinary vehicles to the status of coveted treasures, even if it makes zero sense to absolutely everyone.


As the final gavel came down on this unprecedented sale, the automotive realm received a vivid reminder of the nonsense that the used car market has become. Collectors' unyielding pursuit of the ordinary and the unexpected continues to shape the narrative of the online used car market.
