"I bought this car 4 years used and it had just over 30,000 miles. 5 years later it had close to 150,000 miles and never needed any major reparis. It still had the originai clutch when I traded it in a couple of weeks ago. I would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone. It was a good car that I averaged close to 30,000 miles a year on. Very reliable, great engine, awesome value."

"We needed a car for my daughter to take to college. She drives interstates to school and I wanted decent performance for merging, excellent side and rear visibility, reliability and decent fuel economy. The 03 Altima has superior visibility for merging and lane changes due to the extended rear windows and narrow pillar supports. With the 2.5L 4 cyl engine 175 HP is produced at a reasonable RPM. Overall, we have 2 main complaints. The transmission really needs a 5th speed as excessive RPMs are clocked at highway speeds. Also, we have had some troublesome strut problems. Fuel economy suffers, especially in town. Better gearing, and a somewhat smaller engine would do the trick. Quality is OK, but Honda and Toyota are better built, and are more refined in terms of driveability."

"Engine and transmission problems galore. Too many to enumerate. Google "2003 Altima problems" and read about the problems that exist with this motor. Typical for other years also. Bad, bad, bad!!!"

"I'm 17 years old and this is my first car. I have the 2.5S and it's everything i need in a car. I'm a huge speed demon and this car gives me what I want :-) It's really peppy!!! I would put this car up against any 4 cylinder out there!! Gas mileage is really good in my opinion. [Memphis and back (about 250 miles) and only used 1/2 tank!). This car makes me want to take long trips because the stereo is awesome, the air conditioner and the heater are very responsive, passing people is a joy, the car handles curves wonderfully, and the engine sounds awesome when roaring!!! It's always turning heads and people can't believe it's just a 4cyl, they always think it's a V6 under the hood. Also, my car had 140,000 miles on it and it runs like a champ and it feels really well built and solid. I LOVE IT!!"

"Bought this car used with 31000 miles. This car performs like our Toyotas and is larger than the Honda Accord that I previously owned. Gas mileage is about 26 miles per gallon overall but is decent for a mid sized sedan."

"The Altima 2.5s has been nothing but great in the 180000 miles I have put on it. Have had no major problems what so ever. I only recently replaced the battery but thats it. Handles great but is pretty low on power but if that does not bother you its a great car for reliable transportation."
