hey, im new to this forum, and i am purchasing a used (11k miles) 08 altima coupe 3.5l six speed fully loaded for 22, 595 sticker. hopefully ill only pay 20k, but i was just looking for the opinion of other altima drivers. i was originally going to by a new 09 lancer gts, but for some reason i am now up to a gently used altima.

Can you afford 8k more? If so, I would look at 08 Subaru STi's. Keep in mind that if you're getting used car financing, factor that into the equation; it's typically higher vs. new car financing. (There's a thread on Fatwallet where people are driving off with brand new STi's for 30k @ 0% APR for 60 months; good credit is a good thing) So if it's anywhere near 25k-30k in the end, I'd start emailing Subaru dealerships right now to see if any are willing to deal. But that's just me.

That Korean car is amazing warranty wise. Spec wise, decent. Price wise : decent. Luxury : incredible.

If you look at the Genesis sedan, it's way oiver the top of Altima, power / luxury / warranty wise. The problem : Hyundai stigma.

A stigma well earned, given their products' past propensity for self-biodegrading at the conclusion of the warranty period.
