1996 Nissan Cedric Y33 Grandi Turismo | 3.0-litre VG30E V6 | 4-speed automatic | Rear wheel drive | 121,103km | 5-seat executive sedan | Acacia Ridge QLD
Description
The Nissan Cedric Y33 Grandi Turismo is a Japanese executive sedan from an era when Japanese domestic market luxury was genuinely impressive. Built between 1995 and 2001, the Y33 combined rear-wheel-drive dynamics with the kind of interior craftsmanship and acoustic refinement that the Cedric nameplate had built its reputation on over decades. The Grandi Turismo specification is one of the more desirable Y33 variants, bringing the 3.0-litre VG30E V6 producing 160kW, cream leather interior, woodgrain trim throughout, and the formal proportions that made the Cedric a preferred choice for Japanese corporate and government use. This example has been complianced in Australia through L.W Motors AU PTY LTD with a compliance date of June 2026.
The white exterior presents with good gloss and straight body lines. The windscreen, glass, and chrome door handles are all in sound condition. Aftermarket multi-spoke SSR-style alloy wheels have been fitted with Zeetex tyres, replacing the original factory units. A woodgrain C-pillar trim strip is visible, which is a characteristic Grandi Turismo luxury detail and presents in good condition. Inside, the cream leather seats are very well-presented for a nearly 30-year-old vehicle, with the woodgrain dash and door trim intact. An aftermarket infotainment screen has been installed below the factory climate control unit, which remains functional. The headliner shows the age-related delamination typical of Y33-era vehicles, with sagging visible in the rear section. The door sill area shows active rust and paint bubbling at the rocker panel junction on one door, which is a material condition item. The engine bay presents with typical age-related grime and a strut brace fitted. A timing belt service sticker visible in the engine bay confirms the belt was replaced at approximately 117,000km, giving approximately 4,000km of use since that service. Vendor advises the water pump, rear brake rotors, and a set of rims and tyres have all been recently replaced. Service records and the owner's manual are included.
Y33 Cedric Grandi Turismo examples with compliance plates have a small but genuine collector following in Australia. These are rare enough that well-presented examples trade anywhere from $8,000 to $18,000 depending on condition and specification. The recent mechanicals, service records, and valid compliance are positives. The sill rust and headliner condition are factors buyers will want to inspect and price accordingly. For a buyer after a genuine Japanese executive sedan with real character, the Y33 Grandi Turismo remains a compelling and distinctive choice.
