i have an se-r. just got it about 1 1/2 months ago.
i originally wanted the g-35 but went w/ the s-er had more options for the money. i love the car BUT IT IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN IN SNOW/SLUSH. This is a car that u would have to buy rims and snow tires for. That to me is the only down fall. Good luck.

I've had my SE-R (6 speed)for a year now and it's been great so far. This car handles differently from the SE. MUCH tighter and with the standard tires they are VERY sticky. If you live in an area where the roads are bumpy, you probably won't be happy with this car. As mentioned before, if you plan on driving in snow, snow tires are a must.
As with any FWD car with this amount of power, there is plenty of torque steer.
The sound from the exhaust is wonderful! It sounds a lot like a Z.
 
Be sure and take one for a long test drive before purchasing.

Recent Altima Auction Purchases? by jdh5

Has anyone recently purchased any used Altimas at an auto auction? I'm curious what prices I might expect to find at an auction on 2002 models with standard options & around 50-75K miles. Can anyone help me out with this question?

Just put 2k miles on mine. Love it so far. Very quick and lots of fun to drive. Plenty of trunk and interior room.
 
Huge difference in feel from the SE -- I was amazed when I test-drove the SE-R.
 
Only downside (for me) is the sound system. I'd be happier if the 6-disc changer and sat radio was optional and I'd like an aux input for my iPod. Don't get me wrong -- it sounds great; just wish it was a bit more flexible.

Leather seats added by dealer by steveoh62

I am looking into purchasing a 2006 2.5 with the special edition packages. I also want a leather interior, but the only way to get that is with the SL package. However, the dealer suggested that the cloth could be removed and they could have leather installed for a cost of around $1200. And he said the leather would carry the 3 yr./36,000 mile warranty from Nissan as well. Can this true? All your thoughts are welcome.
 
Thanks,
 
Steve

I have a 2.5s but it is a special edition I have not seen one of those yet around town. I live in the sparrows point area

Looks similar to my own Altima...just new door handles, new tails and supposedly a WHOLE-NEW interior!
 
I hope so. Can't wait until NYIAS

I just bought the exact same car you are talking about. 2.5S with special edition. I personally feel its better not to add any aftermarket stuff. I wanted a sunroof but the package with alloy wheel and sunroof was a $1300 option which I could not afford. The dealer offered to put in a aftermarket sunroof. I was a bit skeptical on that as if it leaked it would be quiet a hassle to get it fixed. Anyway, I personally feel that if you can afford it go with the next trim level.....I believe its the 2.5SL

One possible aspect of 2007 Altima... by raychuang00

...Is the fact we may see CVT automatics used on this model for the first time.
 
Now don't laugh--Nissan has already said that they will offer CVT automatics on a wider scale starting with the 2007 US-market models (note both the 2007 Sentra and 2007 Versa will offer CVT's), and Xtroid CVT (which combines a CVT belt-drive system with a torque converter) has proved it can handle the power of the V-6 engine in its application on the Murano "crossover" SUV. I wouldn't be surprised that the I-4 Altimas use the CVT automatic and the V-6 Altimas use a conventional six-speed automatic.

Per Nissannews.com the 07 Altima and Maxima will have CVT engines...Ghosn states that all 07 Nissan sedans will have CVT engines...except the Quest.
