CVT Droning Noise
I like the 2012 Sentra with one exception, the transmission noise upon acceleration. It is very loud initially, but is quiet during the ride. Gas consumption is excellent getting 30 mpg in the city. Engine revs up high to 3-RPMS in cold weather, then levels to 1-RPM after warm up. Hoping the 2010 transmission recall doesn't spill over to the 2012 models. Othewise, love the car.

The Biggest Small Car I've Ever Owned
I purchased my Sentra as a replacement commuter for back and forth to work. I am blown away by the interior size in this car. I'm six feet tall and I never feel crowded. I've been driving her since June 16th and the car is over all averaging 32.8MPG combined city and highway. The ride is quiet, the sound system better han I had a right to hope for in basic transportation. Obviously there are a lot sportier looking cars in this class, however the price, the ride the interior have sold me. Great ride, great car.

Very Reliable Car with Great Gas Mileage
We love this car. It has the special edition package, which I highly recommend. It is super quiet going down the road and has great fuel economy. Sometimes we get around 40 mpg! Definitely a good choice.
