Very Nice

A great car overall. Very powerful 3.5L engine. Drives great except in snow it's not very good. Lots of wheel spin, etc. Interior is well designed except no passenger power seat for $30k?? Strange. Good gas mileage at 24 in mixed highway/city driving. Push button and door sensors are wonderful... never take your keys out of your pocket. That really spoils you!

Drove a 94 Thunderbird for 13 years and thought I wanted a car with a V6 engine. Tested a Ford Fusion V6 and the 4 cyl Camry. When I drove the 2.5S Altima I couldn't believe how strong and powerful the engine is. It can keep up with everything on the road. I love the gas mileage. It gets 35 mpg with all highway driving. With all city driving it gets about 22 mpg. The cvt is smooth and responsive and the car feels solid and sure on highways. The seats felt a little too firm at first but now I'm used to them. I'm very happy with this car and just love driving it.

I want to trade it in already!

I do like my 2.5S Altima for the way that it looks on the outside. The design especially on the back is what led me to the dealer in the first place. The push key is fun as well. But that is all that is good inside, noise comes from everywhere! I feel like it is going to fall apart as I drive it. Oh and mine sounds like crap all day and I keep taking in to the dealer they say it is fixed some recall crap and then guess what I hear as I drive home? Ugh!

Safe in an Accident!!!

Three days after purchasing this car, I was involved in an accident in which I did multiple 360s on an interstate going 80 mph and ended up spinning into and out of a 4 foot ditch twice, completely smashing in both the front end and the rear end. I was wearing my seatbelt, however my dog (in the passenger seat) was not (and did not have benefit of an airbag like I did)! My dog and I both walked out of the car with VERY minor bumps and bruises (mostly from the seatbelt and airbag). I'm so upset that I lost my Altima but I am definitely buying another one as soon as I can. This car saved my life (and my dog's life). The paramedics couldn't believe I survived and neither could I. Thanks Nissan!

I traded in my 2000 Saab 93 convert. because it was just time. My wife has the Murano and we love it and I just needed something to get me to and from the train station everyday. This car has better pick up than my Saab and handles better overall. I used to drive 5 spd for many years so the +/- shift is fun to drive from time to time and I found it works great in the snow/ice to avoid breaking when going down hills. I went real basic on all the features and I don't feel like I am missing anything. The steering is a little loose compared to what I have been driving before (Saab 93 and VW GTI), but it is really a nice car inside and out!! The stereo is pretty good without the bose upgrade.

This is my first Nissan purchase and it will be my last. Two weeks after I purchased the car, I had to bring it to the dealership to have the battery replaced. A couple months later the service engine soon light came on and I had to bring it to the dealship. The car stayed in the shop all day only to find out they had to order fuel filler tube so I had to bring it in again! My paint is chipping, the electronic seat button on the drivers seat has fallen off, the arm rest on the interior of the car always pop out of place. This was a relatively low priced car, but these are things that should not go wrong in the first year of a cars life! Overall I'm not a happy camper!

Disappointing Fuel Mileage

0 of 0 people found this review helpful

Most of my driving is around town. The fuel mileage I am getting is very disappointing. On average I drive 270 miles on 17 gallons of gas. The equates to 15/16 miles to the gallon. Whether I drive the car manual or automatic I get the same results. The manufacture states 23 miles around town. Highway I am not sure of. I bought the car thinking the milage around would be good. Disappointed.

Piece of Junk

This was the worst purchase we ever made. I personally have owned 27 cars in my lifetime so I am good judge of vehicles. Although it looks great and is pretty quick. This car got poor city mileage and had nothing but problems. Passenger air bag did not work for 8000 miles until seat was replaced, brakes kept locking up and left rear wheel was about to fall off the car. Then before we could take it in the front windows were activated by thunder during a storm and when we came out the next day the car had 1 inch of water inside and the dash, console, doors and seats were soaking wet, basically like flood damage. I would not buy this car ever again.

Transmission only last 90,000 miles

I had one 2007 Altima and at 90,000 needed to change the transmission for a brand new one (under warranty). It lasted an other 90,000 so at around 182,000 needed a new transmission and since it's a closed one, it can't be fixed. :0( Other than that, it was a great car.

My 1st True Love

I bought my Altima back in Jan 2009 at 33,000 miles with two owners. While it had no sunroof, it had the glorious Push to Start, which was revolutionary at the time and not seen on an entry level car model in the price range $12k- $$23k (back then). At 234,000 miles and 15 years of ownership, this car has been the most reliable and dependable car I’ve ever owned that catered to my erratic lifestyle with many ups and downs. It’s been with me through college, grad school, cross country twice, and went on road trips with me to hike different places all across the US and even took on unpaved, dirt roads where few sedans dare venture. It’s handled brutal winters in the NE and PNW where roads are less commonly plowed during snow accumulation. Gosh so many memories that my friends and I have of this vehicle. Original transmission, engine was still going strong the day I turned it in. However the car was telling me that the transmission might need to be replaced since I never did a CVT fluid exchange and I was told my multiple decent Nissan mechanics it was too late, and just to ride out the transmission until it dies because any new exchange of CVT fluid would cause the transmission to slip. Still drove like a dream on trade in. I will miss it dearly.

A Great Car For the Money

The new '07 Altima looks great, has a very nice SL option package, and the 4 cylinder engine is surprisingly quick and responsive. It is a lot of car for the money.

Good car but has flaws

It is a good little car. It has good acceleration even with a 4 cyl. It is good looking and stylish. It does not get the gas mileage that the tags said, but I had already known that none of Nissan's vehicles get what the tags say. The paint chips easily and it rusts easily when the paint is chipped (keep a bottle of touch-up paint on hand). Plastic cowling on bottom of car makes it a pain to change the oil by yourself. The intelligent key and push button starting are great features (I have to keep my friends from playing with the door locks though). All in all, it is a good little car that will work well for you as long as you pay attention to it once in a while.

bad transmission & endless recalls

My car has less than 30000 miles and the transmission already has to be replaced. My rotors had to be turned already and don't get a remote starter to the tune of 549.00 for this really bad car. I'm trading this thing in next week. What's it gonna be like at 40000 miles?? If I get one more recall I will scream!!

So far I love this car! I get up in the morning and actually look forward to driving it. I feel like I ripped off Nissan, because it feels like a more expensive car. The room is great for a 6'4" guy like myself. The stereo is outstanding, the ride quality is just awesome! So many great things about this car, it's unbelievable.
