#34 of 37 This is a joke, right? by habiem Jun 28, 2008 (7:23 am)
I know this is an old thread, but it's got to be a joke, right? Don't get me wrong, the Altima is a great car - especially the 3.5SL. In fact, I'll probably buy one in the next few weeks. I can't speak directly for the current 3 series, but I had a 2001 BMW z3, and the altima doesn't compare. Sure, it's probably just as fast, or even faster, but that's only part of it. My wife and I regularly took the z3 back into the country to go down the little traveled state highways at 100MPH, zipping up and down the hills, hugging the curves at 90. I have no doubt if my mind that if I tried that with the Altima, I'd be dead.   In addition, give the car 5 years and see how many rattles there are. The BMW will have none. The Altima will certainly have some.   So, all in all, Altima is a fantastic car. However, if you can afford the BMW, over the life of the car, you'll love every second of driving it and will find it worth the money. That is, unless you just plan to drive it to the store once a week. If that's the case, save the cash. Replies to this message: akv25 (Jul 02, 2008 1:05 pm)

Wondering if anyone knows how to get more performance via chip, exhaust, supercharge, etc. Replies to this message: kdshapiro (Jul 02, 2008 1:56 pm)

Replying to: habiem (Jun 28, 2008 7:23 am) I have no doubt if my mind that if I tried that with the Altima, I'd be dead.   Couldn't agree more. I have tried to take my Accord around corners like my BMW and boy, have I had the same thoughts! Don't understand how people can equate straight line performance with a sports sedan.

Replying to: r3short (Jul 02, 2008 11:56 am) You can likely ratchet it up somewhat on an Altima. Get a Dinan chip for the 335 however, and you can rack up some serious horsepower and torque 350/350 isn't out of the question.
