Nice ride and quiet cabin. Beautiful dashboard and instrument cluster at night. Sound system is stunning and the wind noise in the highway at 80 mph. Is Barely noticeable. I love it!

I traded a late model honda civic, for the new sentra, i found after two months owning it, that it handles better is much quieter on the highway, has a much more updated saftey package that is standard on all trim levels A step ahead of my Civic.

We picked ours up yesterday and put 140 miles on it. Has a lot of nice features for the money. Handles very well, better than I thought it would. The engine pulls along pretty good for 149 horsepower. The seats are comfortable but, you may be limited to fitting in them if you are a little wide do to the side bolsters. Everything is right at your finger tips but, the car can be a little tough in spots to see out of. I would recommend getting one with the around view 360 for parking since you cannot tell where the front end is at. The car is low so you may damage it if you are not careful. The car is quiet and smooth to a point. The only drawback is like with most Nissan vehicles is the road noise from the tires on some highways. You would think they would add more sound deadning material in the floorboards. The trunk is bigger than expected also. The gas mileage is promising since it was already getting 34 miles to a gallon in all around driving. Since the car is not broken in yet I cannot use the cruise control. We will take it on a long trip this weekend to really test it. We are pleased with this Sentra it is a good car with a lot to like especially for the money if you can find one.

My first Sentra was 1997 base model. It was always parked outdoors, was very reliable with no breakdowns, and I put over 300K miles on it before the body started rusting away. I gave it to someone who actually fixed the body and his sister drove it for years afterwards before it finally gave out at a little under 450K miles. Unheard of even at that time. I went to Honda (different models) for a while after that and wasn't thrilled with the declining quality of the brand. Decided to go back to Nissan in 2017 and leased a base model Nissan Sentra. The monthly leasing fee was less than my cable (internet, phone, tv) bill, and the car drove smoothly, but it was also lumbering with no pick-up. I looked at other brands before I brought that lease back and was interested in two of them, but when I told the salesman that he came back with such a great offer on a new, base model 2020 Sentra, that I would have been a fool to turn it down. Just a point I want to make. I do not care about all the new tech or bells and whistles in cars today. The Sentra lease I returned only had a little over 11K ml. in 3 years, which should give you an idea how little I now drive. My main concern is reliability and safety. Gas mileage is negligible because I live and work in a small town. The furthest I drive is when going to the dentist which is about 40ml. away, or the capital, which is about 60. Well, a day after picking up my car I had a dentist appointment, and this car drove very well on the highway. Very smooth on the roads with pretty good pick-up. I felt no drag as I did with the 2017 model. The TCS (tractor control system) gave me warnings when I drove over unstable surfaces, and the blind side alert lit up briefly when I was considering a pass into another lane and there was a car there. I find the rear-view camera very helpful for getting out of my single car garage. So far so good, and it meets my present needs. The design of the car is a little more streamlined and as a result more aerodynamic and not clunky like it was before. It has more things in it than I'll probably ever use. If there is one thing I have an issue with it is while using my phone for driving directions. In order for it to go through the radio speakers I have to switch to Bluetooth from the buttons on the steering wheel, which means in-between directions I can no longer listen to the radio as I did with my last Sentra. Maybe I just haven't figured it out yet, but even if it doesn't work the same way, I consider that a minor annoyance. All in all, while I'm not ecstatic, I am satisfied with this lease.

You want the truth? You can't handle the truth! I have owned three motorcycles and one Mustang. If speed is your thing then get one of those. With that being said this is the needle under the haystack. The diamond in the rough, the rose that grew from the concrete! The looks are a 10! The seats I might sue Nissan for making them so comfy I could almost fall asleep while driving oh but wait I won't because it has lane departure warning!!! :) The interior OH MY WORD I feel like I am inside of a 60k car! How did they give us all these bells and whistles and keep it under 30k I will never know! The only thing it doesn't do is drive itself and I am glad it doesn't because I would be missing out on how nice this car drives! Look do yourself a favor go test drive one I have been thinking about working at a Nissan Dealership Part Time because I know I could sell these things like it selling water on a 100 degree day! So lets talk about the CVT! It took some getting use to but now I love it! Also guess what there is a sports button which the sales person didn't even tell me about it, when I press the button it feels like I'm driving a lowered BMW it hugs the corners I even got scared and had to slow down so trust me you will never take corners at 80mph like I just did I just wanted to see if it could handle it and it does. So I will be honest I was scared to buy this car because of the past CVT issues that Nissan had, but do you really think they want to get sued again also the final decision of me buying this car was the dealership that I bought it from offered me a lifetime warranty on the CVT! That was it I was sold. It is so nice I'm thinking of buying my wife one lol. I really don't want everyone to go out and buy this car because then it will look like all the civics and toyotas that are on the road so please don't buy one lol. One more thing everyone keeps stoping in my blindspot and won't pass me you know what that means right? They are admiring the car but don't want you to see them admiring it. Thanks to the blindspot indicators that are always going off I know when someone is looking :) Where ever I stop people ask me what kind of car is that? That is one sexy car! Ok Ok enough I am going to the far grocery store that is 20miles aways just to get some chips lol
