Thinking about buying one...

[s13girl]

so i just got a new job which gives me the means to purchase a new car, so i am thinking about buying an altima coupe. I have a s13 but besides that i have never driven any other Nissan vehicle, for those who own one do you love it and what are some things i should know about the car before I get serious about purchasing one!

I am also assuming since its suppose to be a sporty version that there are a lot of aftermarket upgrades...

Let me know your views and opinions about the car, they will be greatly appreciated!

Hey Morgan,

I love my Coupe...it is awesome and out of all of the cars I have ever owned this is the most fun to drive. As for aftermarket...i wouldn't say there are a lot of parts, but they are steadily coming out with more and more everyday.

Go test drive the 3.5, you'll fall in love

Fantastic car that is awesome in either the 2.5 or 3.5 flavor, very easy on the eyes of course

You'll hear nothing but good things from people here. There are few incidents here and there but nothing major. Check one out and see for yourself!

You will love it, but you will have to change your myspace name

The only thing wrong with this car is that it wasn't made as a RWD car but other than that it's a great car and you'll love the Ikey.

Only complaints I have about the car is the annoying passenger side seatbelt rattle, and that the parking break doesn't do a great job of holding the car in place... it tends to roll even on slight inclines; and with the CVT, I don't want it rolling too much. But, I can live with those things, and I love my car!

Yea definately make sure that you test drive the 3.5 and you will fall in love. If you know how to drive a 6 spd I would recommend that. Although I do have the CVT and like it.

I love my coupe! Great gas mileage, stylish, handles great

[s13girl]

thanks for all the help. I would def. be buying the 6 speed...i hate driving automatics!!

I dont mind that its not RWD because I need something that I can drive in place of my s13 for the winter time..

We jsut got a brand new Nissian dealership in town so I might go test drive one soon.

well its good to hear that everyone likes their coupe

thanks for all the help and if you have any more to add please dont hesitate!
