Nissan Sentra 2001

I have really enjoyed my Nissan Sentra. I think it is also a relatively good deal in comparison with most competitors such as the Toyota Corolla or the Mazda Protege. Handling is very nice and engine performance is very much to my satisfaction. That engine purrs like a kitten when it idles and growls like a leopard when performance is needed. Even in higher gears this car easily pulls you up on most gradients.

I bought my sentra with 22,000 miles on it when it was two years old.It was just in an accident and she was totaled (and I walked away unscathed) but I miss having it, I should buy another one! This is an extremely reliable car, and would suggest it to anyone!

Hey, this is not a BMW, but it sure feels like driving one (with that price tag). For the pirce of US$15000, I am a happy Nisaan driver.

Intermittent Cruise Control

I love Nissan.Leased a 98 before buying.Had problems from day 1.The inside is often noisy,the rattles vary in volume,frequency and location. The cruise is intermittent & they can't find the problem.It works on restart but is a concern.A rear speaker has blown repeatedly w/o resolve.Also the entry remotes work off/on. Otherwise, the car is great.Their lack of competency & empathy is disappointing.If resolved,I'd have bought another Nissan.The fact that I've had problems in a new car over 2 years, makes it hard to trust Nissan. Would like to know if others are having this happen, Nissan says no.
