My 08 Sentra SE-R will finally be delivered tomorrow and will be ready for pickup on Saturday .... for those who have already had this car for a while now, is there any specific areas/problems i should be looking out for specifically when inspecting?

I've already talked to "gotak" on another forum and he's given me some tips and I'm aware of his heated mirror problem (i pray I won't have to deal with it too!). But is there any other advice I can get?

Congrats. Picked up mine last month and enjoying it so far. I can't offer any advice other than a visual inspection on body panels, scratches on wheels, look at and under the bumpers and side panels to ensure they have not scraped anything. Same inspection for interior looking for scratches and such. Body panels align properly. I have had some wierd noise like a loud ABS ticking. This has only happened 3 times and only when the engine is cold and pulling out of the drive way going right, and for only about 6 feet. Like I said it sounds like loud ABS ticking or something rubbing grinding on something, metal on metal. I 'll wait until it gets worse and continuous or something just fails totally. Not too worried since I got the 48 month 96K bumper to bumper. I'm in the TO area as well. What colour did you get?

yikes, I keep hearing about small minor problems coming out of these 07+ Sentras, I'm getting a bit worried!

I got mine in black, and didn't both with the additional warranty, so any funky sounds I hear, I'll likely take it straight to dealership.
