Love my 2016 Altima SL

I bought my 2016 Altima SL new with 2.5 motor. The SL model has some great options on it! I love this car! 39-47 highway (usually on trips 40 and up, 36 around town. Better than what it said I would get! Very comfortable, great acceleration. Not very many 2016 SL out there. Everything I wanted and with only 51,000 miles. Got lucky with this one!

The best car I’ve owned

My main concern was to have a car that has enough space for my son and that was safe, this car meets all of my requirements and it’s safe as well! I’m completely happy with my purchase!!! Thank you.

Most reliable car I’ve ever had

My Nissan Altima is a beautiful car. I’m in love with it. This will actually be my first Nissan, I’ve always had Hyundai’s but it’s good to change.

Possible issue with CVT?!?!

The A/C is great, supper cold when its very hot out side. Heater, just as good as the A/C, great amount of heat when its cold out side. The backup camera is great during the day. At night, its okay. A year after I purchase the vehicle, discover that there is a possible issue with the CVT from 40K - 100K miles. Nissan extended the warranty on the CVT. Had I known about the possible issue with the CVT, would not purchase the vehicle.

Great car so far

Clean, and handles well. The mpg is good and all of the accessories are great. I've personally wanted one for a while so I'm happy to finally have it.

Best cars I have ever owned.

I have owned an Altima before and this one by far beats them all... Great reliability, awesome looks and comfort. Drives and handles great. Sound system absolutely rocks for this metal head. Just a sweet ride.

Enjoying My new smooth ride

I really love driving my 2016 altima. It rides so smooth & comfortable and it's zippy on take off. No mechanical issues so far. And the technology in the car is awesome.

Worst car I've ever owned

At 68k my Air conditioning went out, now at 74k my Transmission went out. Nissan is useless will not help on air, told me I have a high mileage car and too bad it's luck of the draw. Luckily transmission was covered but only because there was a law suit against Nissan and they were forced to extend the warranty. Never again will I buy a Nissan.
