Click either image for gallery of Dwight's Nissan Xterra
Fact: A new episode of The Office aired last night in which Andy sells his Nissan Xterra to Dwight, who then puts it up for sale on eBay Motors. Fact: the guy who owns the Xterra in real life works for the show and has put it up for sale on eBay Motors along with a script signed by the cast and props used during filming.
Question: how much is owning Dwight Schrute's Xterra worth to you?
The current bid is $15,300 (Kelley Blue Book says one in excellent condition is worth only $9,715) and no, your money will not go to an obscure charity. It will help this guy trade his SUV for a hybrid. That's so Hollywood. Thanks for the tip, Bojac!
UPDATE: Link to eBay Motors auction added, doh!

This episode was by far the best of this season - well, after the strike that is. And I love how Dwight has his own tag on Autoblog, haha.

FACT: Guy is making well over the value of the vehicle, just because it was a prop in a TV show.
I doubt the script and other extras are worth 5 grand, but hey America at it's finest.

From watching the show I can tell you that all of the interior shots of Andy's car were all Pirus interiors.
Not to mention there was an exterior shot of Andy driving a Prius a few episodes when Andy went to Michael and Jan's house for a dinner party.
The Dwight character still drives his cherry GTA, he bought the Xterra for resale purposes only.
I'm guessing the Andy character was ment to be a minor character at first and was expanded upon later which would explain the difference between his two cars.

Actually, in the earlier seasons you do see Andy driving the Xterra. According to the Wiki, after seeing An Inconvenent Truth, he went out and bought a Prius.

I am going to use Dwight's method of bargaining on my next vehicle purchase.
