"I came .. I saw .. I purchased. Can't say much more since I've only had the Altima for 2 months, but so far it's a sweet ride, and the Nissan people have been great."

"I've owned allot of cars in my life I'm currently driving a 2003 Altima 3.5 SE its my second Altima i also owned a 98 2.5 i have fallen in love with Nissan styling and performance, I have never had any mechanical problems in over 110,000 mi. I do change oil regularly i had the belts changed at 100,00mi. and i am still running on the original brakes and pads i have had them inspected and they are still looking good. I am waiting to see the new reworked model coming out this year then i will probably trade in and have my third altima"

"It is gas friendly, We have had a Hyundai Accent, Elantra, Tucson, and Genesis Coupe and have had no problems with any of them. Two cars are over 100,000 miles. The Sonata is very roomy, comfortable and great gas mileage with an "eco" button to save more gas when you want. Highly recommend. My family says I should sell them."

"This is my second Altima. I previously owned an 06 and now I have the 2012. The car comes equiped with some features you expect on luxury cars. The 4cyl has great acceleration comparable to some v6s! Nissan did a good job making this car!"

"Excellent handling and pickup. Quiet at all speeds. Great road feel. The only thing lacking is an all wheel drive option. To get that you have to go to the Infiniti G-37 that is an additional $14,000.00. The Altima Coupe V-6 is otherwise comparable, but don't buy this vehicle for its backseat or trunk."
