"I needed a rental car for a week to drive around Florida for a business trip, and this pile is what the rental company gave me. It was a 2013 with 4 miles on the odo when they turned it over to me. It went back with about 1500 miles on the clock, and it felt like 3000 miles in a wooden cart. My back aches as I write this. I rent cars often, and try a wide range of cars, just to see what is out there, and this is the worst car I have ever tried. Ugly to look at, underpowered slug, less than expected mileage, and seats less comfortable than burlap over plywood. The controls are not laid out with any logic, and some are even hard to get to. It's just really poorly designed. Road noise wasn't too bad at highway speeds, but around town it made some unattractive noises. On the highway, it tended to drift a bit, and was rough riding. I ended up giving it 5 stars for reliability, because in the whole time I had it, nothing broke, so that's fair enough. Do yourself a favor and look at an American or European car. I have yet to find a good Asian car, but this was the worst so far."

"Ride is smooth and comfortable, power is average, was looking for good gas mileage. Exterior is very appealing and interior is nice, but seat cloth material attracts lint and hair. Convenience package is a nice feature with sun roof and alloy wheels, bluetooth, homelink, steering wheel audio controls,etc. So far nice car."

"Traded in a 2012 Ford Fusion on a 2013 Altima SV. I am 6'3" and have plenty of room, and the Altima is getting much better gas mileage than the fusion...over 34mpg combined city/hwy. I get compliments wherever I go. Decided on SV model because I wanted solid wheels and not hubcaps...remote start, upgraded climate control/stereo are also huge pluses. There is a slight "grinding" noise from the transmission if you accelerate very very slowly, however it lasts a second and then goes away. With the radio on its a null point. Overall great car for the money and total package with rebates, financing, etc...BUY ONE!"

"I love this car. It is my second Altima as I had a 2005 SL also. I cannot believe all the technology in this car for the money. I feel like I am driving a Lexus, and I have had 2 of them in the past. It is a fun car and very comfortable."

"I"ve had problems with the CVT, whining noise, and more. The CVT lags and "grinds" at about 1500 rpms. The steering whine is totally unacceptable. After going to the dealer several times, opening a complaint file with Nissan, and going to the BBB for arbitration, they FINALLY sent a regional tech to fix it. Well, 700 miles later all issues are returning. The dealer no longer chooses to help, and after just three months, I sold the car and took a loss. Don't buy an Altima! Just read consumer reviews. I wish I did. I am very happy with the car I bought."
