Good Car
This is a pretty good car. The sports package is a must, it makes the car look so amazing. It handles really well. The stereo is pretty good too. I jus wish it was a bit faster. Hard to get up hills.
Transmission went at 30,000
Despite being well taken care of, the transmission failed at 30,000 miles in 2008. Cost me $4 grand. Dealer said it wasn't covered. Couldn't fight them as I was going through a health crisis. Mechanics and transmission dealer said they never saw anything like it. Still pretty upset about losing that much money on such a low mileage car.
Love to Drive
I fell in love with my G before I even bought it. Just after seeing it in 2001, I drove it right off the showroom floor and it hasn't disappointed me yet! This car is classy yet sporty and a great performer for the 4-cyl class. Solid engineering and esthetically pleasing. Still looks great today even among newer vehicles. Cons? Cup holders are inefficient. Passenger seat adjustment in the sport edition isn't automatic. My son grew up in this car and will inherit it in 2 yrs; it makes me nervous that he won't love it as much as I do.
Awesome Value
I found a 2002 with 35000 miles on the clock, and have added 7000 miles before writing this review. For the small price I paid, I love this car. I get great mileage and comfort without the high cost of buying a stripped down toyota or honda on the used market. This is an awesome vehicle for the high gas prices this year, I have averaged 32-33 mpg highway. It is an ultimate executive beater!
G20 Sport - nice little car!
We bought a silver '02 Sport model with the 5-speed transmission for my wife. It's been a flawlessly reliable, good-looking, fun-to-drive little car. I owned a '91 Nissan Sentra SE-R for 10 years, a car that had the same SR20DE engine in the G20. That engine was the number one reason we looked into the G. It's that good: easy to rev, torquey down, not too buzzy, sips fuel and breathes well all the way to redline. The suedelike perforated inserts in the Sport package really dress up the interior along with the titanium- colored accents. The 16" wheels from the European Primera are a massive step up in appearance from the stock dinky wheels rounded with skinny rubber.
