Best among its class!!!Source: MSN Autos...I push my cars really hard and really value handling, so for spirited drivers like me, i recommend switching to max performance summer tires. It makes a world of difference! However, most people will find the factory tires more than adequate. They provide a good balance b/w comfort and handling Overall: I feel that the Honda Accord EX-L Coupe is the best among its class. The exterior and interior designs are amazing, suspension is great, the engine is strong for a 4 cyl... The car definitely has a European feel to it: look out BMW! The overal stiffness and rigidity of the car are comparable... |

2005 Altima SERSource: Cars.com...Not one rattle or gap of any kind. Bose stereo is very good for stock radio (no mp3 though). Rides like brothers BMW 330i, but faster. Looks great with black on black and 18in wheels. Backseat room is limo like. Heated leather seats a godsend in northeast winters. Not good in snow. Exhaust sound is refined yet sporty. HID headlights are great. Good gas mileage for v6 power. Did I mention power---there is plenty of that. Power is smooth in delivery, meaning you are not really sure how fast you are going until you look at speedo. Overall best value I have ever in my 20+ cars owned. Previous... |

Altima SER PotentialsSource: Cars.com...Simplist bolt-ons to your engine would devastate Mustang GT's and 350/370z's. I had installed Nismo CAI (Cold Air Intake) Nismo Camshafts, and Nismo Fuel Pressure Regulator. These items combined with factory installed Sports-Tuned exhaust and suspension make this car a true experience. Also when it came time to replace the tires I went wider from a 225/45R18 to a 245/45R18. This increased it's traction for better acceleration and cornering. Also made for a more aggressive appearance. Highway gas mileage is excellent and very very for city, maintenance has been very easy with no major issues... |

Pearl white SL V6Source: Cars.com...However, there was quite a bit of torque steer on fast accelerations. The ride was overall nice especially on smooth roads, but i personally would have liked for the suspension to absorb bumps better.- Styling/Appearance - I originally fell in love with the Altima after the 02' restyle. It is such a beautiful, sleek style. I had the pearl white paint which SO beautiful in the sun or at night in a lighted parking lot. I had a rear spoiler as well as side skirts. I also put an after market grille on mine which did not have the Nissan logo on it. I was repeatedly asked by strangers if it was... |

STAY AWAY!! ENGINE ISSUES AND OIL!Source: Cars.com...After 10 days later the check engine light came up, took it back to dealership, they said it was fine, put some oil in it and away i go. 1 month later, light comes on again, and took it to a different mechanic and was told i had NO OIL!! Mind you i only drove 30 miles at most. No leaks were found. Nissan denies any issues on the Engine or the Catalyst. After 3 years i can no longer handle the way Nissan treats their customers by ignoring thousands of people's similar complaints. I traded it for a Honda Civic and could never be more happier. Sure its not as smooth as the Altima, but at least i... |
