first opinion
Car drove terrific, was hard to keep it at 70 MPH. 2.5 Engine also got 30 mpg during break-in. This is my 5th Nissan product, first car. Had 1 pathfinder, 1 frontier, 2 xterras. I purchased the vehicle with the replaced engine and extended warranty.more rebate. This car is fun to drive everyday to work and pleasant to look at. I have a lot of options that enhance the appaerance like woodgrain interior, rear spoiler,Billet grille,Spec Edition pkg etc.
Very reliable and durable unlike the newer models
We bought this car nearly 15 years ago, and it now has 261,000 miles. The transmission failed around 250,000 miles, but since we were impressed with the car’s quality, I decided to replace it with an inexpensive junkyard replacement. I believe it can last at least another 3–5 years. However, the paint quality isn’t as good as Toyota’s. The clear coat started peeling after 12 years, whereas our 20-year-old Corolla still looks nice and shiny with minimal care.

Best Car I have yet bought
I just recently bought my Altima. I had looked at other competitors, but thought that the small interiors would not work with my growing teenagers. I wanted a car with excellent gas mileage and great handling and I think I have gotten both. Couldn't recommend a nicer car for the money. The gas mileage on it is excellent!
Nice Appearance
We always drove a Ford until 2006 when we decided to try a Nissan and have been very satisfied with performance, comfort and style. We like the steering wheel controls, the roomy trunk, the nice wide opening of the 4 doors and the doors are much more water tight than our last Ford. Our next car will most likely be another Nissan.
Incredible mileage and performance
We bought this vehicle for my wife to run around in. At the time, I wasn't in love with the Altima but she was, so she got it, of course. We added the spoiler and kept the rest pretty stock. It is clean enough with its factory lines. I know that they say this car gets about 26 mpg but I get avg. 29 city, and 34-37 hwy and have since we have owned it. I am tremendously impressed with it especially for the price we paid. I did replace the battery but that is common when you spend summers in Az. It is not the first Nissan that we have had and it probably will not be the last.
