Bought the car used with 115k. Driving impressions: the car is like a tank in the city: huge turn radius, horrible mpg (14/city), poor rear visibility makes it hard to park. Performance is ok for 230hp. I come from 97 528i, and some minor features are missing, and interior quality is not as great. HID lights are all fogged out by now and barely illuminate the road. However, over 2 years I only had the following issues: replaced ECU and defective idle control valve ($500), power steering hose ($300). Oxygen sensor fault popped up once in a while - replaced spark plugs and now it's gone (at least for now). That's all! Now the pros - read them in the favorite features below.
EXCELLENT

I love my car! I have 80000 miles on it and have owned it since 1400 miles, never given me an ounce of trouble. I love the dealership, they give you loaners for anything you have done on the car! My only concern is that I was told not to take it over 90000 miles, that is when it starts to get expensive to maintain. Guess it's time to shop for a new Infinity soon!

I read reviews before I bought this car, and it seemed like a safe choice. All scheduled maint. was provided by the dealer but at 80K the problems began and haven't stopped. MAF sensor, 2 alternators, driver's seat motor, O2 sensor, another problem has just popped up and it's sure to be another. $1,000. Low price is not worth the thousands spent in repairs, not to mention it has left me stranded 3 times in 3 years.
Not bad for how much i paid for it

Bought this bad boy for about $1800 about 6 years ago with about 160,000 miles on it. It is now over 300,000 miles. Issues i had to deal with were, leaking steering fluid (fixed with $110 dollar part), new left and right arm assembly, new rotors, and brakes, new left and right bearing. Had to replace alternator twice, one was faulty so got it replaced within 6 months for free. Did all the maintenance and repairs with a friend or myself. The power window on the driver side is no longer working, motor is bad, not going to replace it. too much of a hassle tp remove the door panels. I pretty much ran this car into the ground, yet it is still ticking. 300,000 miles is an accomplishment for a nissan engine i think. I think one of the tie rods is no longer good, or even an arm needs replacing. Just gets to the point to where, you don't want to put anymore time or money into it to. I'll probably be able to sell it for more than what i paid for it, because of the crazy car market. If you're mechanically inclined and can watch youtube videos on how to repair, replace, and general maintenance, you can pretty much save a lot of money on maintaining cars like these and used cars in general. Oh yeah, the key fob never worked with this car, had to buy an after market key fob, and it worked for a while, but now that fob no longer works, and bought new ones oem, and after market fobs and none seem to connect or work. Now I have to use the actual key to lock and unlock the doors. Can be a nuisance when your hands are full and trying to pop the trunk with the fob.

purchased 1 yr ago at 117,000km. now at 130,000km. had to replace alternator. CEL comes on and off telling O2 sensor is bad. car pulls good when you floor it but during normal throttle, car feels heavy and big. turning circle is very big. fuel economy isn't great. regular can be used but premium recommended. Very good on highway cruising. long list of options but the material quality isn't up to acura/lexus. doesn't have MIST wiper operation that sweeps only once (even civic has this feature). need to turn on the wiper and turn off for occational wiper sweep. Trunk space is HUGE. interior space is HUGE as well. Standard HID is good but need more brightness.
