So i got in a wreck sunday and totaled my 03 so now im in the market for a new one i could use some input on pros and cons of the new altimas. Any help would be great

pros:powerful and torquey VQ engine, luxurious ride when full equip with the leather, winter capable coupe with VehiculeDynamicControl and TractionControlSystem, carry 5 (!!) people in sexy style (5'9" in the back max), keyless, autoheadlights (never touch it again), quiet, safe ride (5 stars crash rating), LATCH system for babyseats in the back. GREAT center console layout and easy to use controls. Auto DUAL climate control. GREAT aftermarket support considering the limited worldwide availability of the car. 60/40 rear seats that fold FLAT. GREAT MPGs (I get 30hwy 22city). AUX input for music.

cons: small trunk, stock ride isn't as sporty as i'd like, 4x4 look, tendency to understear when pushed to the limit, uncommunicative steering at low speeds , boring CVT ride, long throws on the manual transmission and clunky feeling on the shifter with the too light shift knob. Nearly 300hp without a limited slip diff. fit and finish isn't perfect, there are some rattles here and there. small wind noise at high speed. Brittle and cheap paintjob. Nissan's LOCKED packages.

Get the 3.5 if your going to keep it for a while. After some new rims and tires, Lowering springs, strut bar and sway bar, then a pair of endlinks. You will love it.

Go test drive one and make sure you fit though!

[shortys408]

6"9! What did your parents feed you?

[Ranga14]

lol, 6'9'', dang, well as long as you're a slim one, you'll be ok but my friend is about 6'4'' and he has a lot of girth and it's difficult for him to fit in. haha

And I disagree on the bad paint job. I've always thought the paint jobs were pretty sexy. Unless you're speaking of the durability?

You're just saying this because you have a 2.5 ... J/K Much love to the 2.5 driver out there.

Pros: Great torque, VQ has lots of power, Premium package is GREAT with leather and the whole works, smooth ride in CVT, but I would get the 6SP manual transmission if you're going to mod it, 2.5 is gas ecomomic, but many brothers here don't like it's lack of HP, interior room is mode then enough for me, but tall dudes like phenom think it's small head space wise. I would say that mcheddadi nailed the pros.

Cons: Paint reliability is crappy, trunk is great enough for me, but others think it's to small, suspension is on 4X4 mode out the factory, CVT is smooth like I mentioned for easy riding, but boring when your going BALLZ OUT in modding like Blake and I have done and no LSD on it stock.

You will love the 09 Altima dude .

Haha thanls. I wish i could get the coupe but i could haul friends around cause most of of them are over 6 foot and over 200lbs and we would look like a bunch of clowns gettin out of it

Nah bro I was just busting your ballz about it. I test drove the 2.5 before I got my 3.5 because I bought. It's when the coupe first came out and it was the only one the dealer had man that thing has trq dude.
