2011 Nissan Altima 2.5 S 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
I had this car for more than a month, and I did cruise till now about 2500KM, compared to its main competitors (Camry, Mazda6, Accord), it is overall having the magical formula that those 3 competitors couldn't mix perfectly.
It is Stylish, high performance, comfortable, excellent cargo space, fantastic 9-speakers Bose sound, and great fuel economy. And add to all that, it has a very … very good dealer here in UAE.
If you are looking for a family sedan, or a stylish young car, Nissan Altima has the perfect blend.
I am in love!!

2011 Nissan Altima 2.5 S 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
I recently purchased the Nissan Altima 2.5 S. This was the first time I purchased a new vehicle and I did my research and test drove many cars. I drove the Camry, Optima, Cruze, Mazda 3, Fusion, etc, but I knew when I sat in the Altima that it was made for me. This car out did the competition in style, performance, and the fact that it was just fun to drive.
The CVT is smooth and I … barely notice when the car is shifting gears. The features are stylish and I love the intelligent key technology. The inside is sleek and classy. There is plenty of leg room in the back!
So far, I am avg. 25 MPG city, stop and go driving, which is great!
Im in love! Will do another review later in the year.
2011 Altima w/ SL package

2011 Nissan Altima 2.5 S 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
I recently purchased a 4-cyl. 2011 Altima with the SL package and the Bose premium sound package w/ backup camera.
I love this car and I am very happy with my decision after putting about 500 miles on it.
I was on the fence between the Sonata and the Altima for a while, but ultimately decided I liked the styling and smooth ride of the Altima better.
A small part of me wishes I went with … the V6 but it was signifiantly more money and I wouldn't be averaging 26 miles per gallon as I am with the 4 cylinder.
The 4-cyl. offers plenty of power 95% of the time.
I recommend the SL package and Bose system which produces outstanding sound quality, and I would also add a spoiler.

2011 Nissan Altima 2.5 S 4dr Sedan (2.5L 4cyl CVT)
This seems to be a solid car. Got it a month ago and have 1000 miles on it. No complaints.
Gas mileage is 26 mpg which is in town and rural combined. My v6 accord got 21 mpg for the same type driving. Overall a very good car.
