Edmunds' Expert Review

What’s new
An all-new Stanza debuts in 1990. The new Stanza has the same engine as the sporty 240SX but continues with a tired suspension and uninteresting styling. Better luck next time.

My Stanza
Lancey, 11/15/2006
1990 Nissan Stanza XE 4dr Sedan
I have had but one real problem and that was the fuel pump. I found one in a wrecking yard for 35.00 and have no problems since. I have changed the spark plugs and the brakes need done and possible cv joint will be needing replaced soon, but what do you expect after 238,000 miles. It has been the best little car I have ever bought.

1990 Nissan Stanza XE 4dr Sedan
I purchased this car new in 1989 and it gets great gas mileage at an average of 35 MPG HWY and 30 MPG City. It rides good, it is a comfortable ride and has been over all a great car with very little maintenance.

1990 Nissan Stanza XE 4dr Sedan
My wife has had this car for about 12 years. I have been driving it for the last 4 and have had no major problems. just standard maintenance. Am just know putting front brakes on it since my wife had owned it. Had replaced the raditor because of a slow leak, replaced the cv joints once 1 year ago. That is it. This car is roomy, has good exceleration and good on gas. Maintence has been … negligible. Love this car and I'm still driving it.

1990 Nissan Stanza GXE
Ken Johnston, 11/20/2003
1990 Nissan Stanza GXE 4dr Sedan
I inherited this car from my
Grandfather and he used it mainly in
town with some highway use on I-15 so
milage average is low. I had to replace
all the leaking fuel injectors in 2002
but that is only major repair failure.
Other normal maintenance issues like CV
Joints, etc. are required for all cars.
Gas milage is less than my same 1990
Mazda 626 (which is a 5 speed). … This
car is a bit tight in headroom for me
but a great 2nd commute car for my
wife. Stanza design hurt its longevity
but it is comparable to other Japanese
cars for reliability outside of fuel
injectors.
