dependable and efficient

purchased preowned with 70k miles, now have 117k no issues with regular maintenance. the cloth interior stains really easy and the more I try to clean it the more the stains show up. Overall, will probably drive it another year.

Rides very smooth and great on gas so far.

The vehicle was the right size and was comfortable to ride. The price was within my budget and seems to get great gas mileage.

Fun to drive, has been reliable.

Mileage is decent at about 20 mpg. CVT is responsive, but not refined. We got 7 yr/100k mile extended warranty, but only time we needed was to replace front control arm

$40 n gas gets me to chi from texas

I recently purchased a 4-cyl. 2011 Altima with the SL package and the Bose premium sound package w/ backup camera. I love this car and I am very happy with my decision after putting about 500 miles on it. I was on the fence between the Sonata and the Altima for a while, but ultimately decided I liked the styling and smooth ride of the Altima better. A small part of me wishes I went with the V6 but it was signifiantly more money and I wouldn't be averaging 26 miles per gallon as I am with the 4 cylinder. The 4-cyl. offers plenty of power 95% of the time. I recommend the SL package and Bose system which produces outstanding sound quality, and I would also add a spoiler.

Impressed with the Altima

Five stars I really am surprised at the 2011 Altima. I compared the Altima to the Malibu in addition to the Ford Fusion and also the Impala and overall I thought P Altima was the better pick from myself and my needs.
