I was able to get an Altima with options for what I perceived was a very good price.

6-speed shiftable CVT FWD
I saw all the rave reviews and features it had, and I thought the car would be around $40,000 CAD at least. However, it turned out to be $30,000 which was in my budget. I took it for a spin and was instantly sold.

When I negotiated for the altima the cheapest the dealership would come down to was just over 25,000. It was the 2.5 sl package (leather, bose stereo, etc. For another 1,400 I bought the accord v6 with the premium stereo, leather, moonroof, etc.

The price is a bit on the high side when comparing to domestic automobiles, yet a lot can be said about costumer service and a high quality product. I for one will be a repeat costumer of nissans

Nissan has set the bar pretty high on this car. Highly recommended.

Neat and clean
2008 2dr Coupe 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD
looks thoughful and well put together. Interior does not look cheap. I like the keyless ignition, doors and trunk.
2008 2dr Coupe 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed manual FWD
Fit and finish are excellant very good materials used in interior, not all hard plastics
2008 4dr Sedan 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD
The car is made of excellent material for its price and Nissan has been regarded as a very reliable car company for sometime
2007 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD
Nissan has done a very good job of keeping the nice stuff where you look and feel, unlike others who put obviously cheap plastic where your arm rests or eyes come in contact with on a daly basis
2007 4dr Sedan 270-horsepower 3.5L V6

Being a big car, I can't help but shake the feeling the car is 'thin' in sheet metal. It's probably going to take some getting used to, but quality is top notch, no loose cables, rattling or misaligned pieces.
2008 2dr Coupe 270-horsepower 3.5L V6

seems a little more attention to detail was needed
2008 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4

uneven gaps cheap paint mis-matched colours inside and headlight cover or housing is really cheap !!
2005 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
4-speed automatic FWD
Pathetic arm that needs to be put in place to keep the hood up. Cheap plastic on the inside. Rattles.
2004 4dr Sedan 245-horsepower 3.5L V6
5-speed manual FWD
The interior simply looks cheap and ill-fitting, and the controls operated with a less positive feel than I would expect from a car of this price.
2002 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
5-speed manual FWD
This falls in to small things not meager problems examples armrest metal screws used to screw and hold the armrest in place and that broken now over fitting parts in some places leading to cracks or big rust problem in driver and passenger flor and more.
