Are you the type to do mods on the exterior/interior, performance, or both. I'm just curious to ask. I like to do exterior/interior first then I do performance parts.

I'm into both but I'm not into radical styling. Subtle outside, comfortable inside, powerful power plant. Maybe one day I'll get there.

Shoot...I voted off the subject, not the post you made. I thought you originally meant "Why did you buy your Altima?" and that would be a resounding "LOOKS" from anyone with a 2.5 and a "BOTH" from the 3.5s I am sure.

But since you qualified as MODs...I typically see most 3.5ers boosting an already powerful engine and the 2.5s working on cheaper look modifications (overlays...lights...tints...that such)

i'd go performance first then looks but both are equally considered important.

but i'd rather have crazy performance and keep the looks department good yet subtle.

what good is a great looking sporty car is your getting spanked by hooked up civics. Go performance first and then start the cosmetics.

I have the 4 cyl to save on gas. So dont plan to race or anything lol. the 6 cyl would have been great but when i test drove it i was afraid because it seemed to unstable . . . like to much power for that chaise. So bought all my cosmetics already and now going to save up to get a few performance parts when i can.
