    The main thing I appreciate about this car in 2023 is that you can actually go to a dealership and just buy one, no waiting list or anything.

      Fleet vehicles! B2B sales and leases are comfortable in their margins and volume, so they can continue to put the Altima out there and have it be a more compelling rental car from the rental company's perspective.
      A Nissan salesperson dream is someone coming in and buying a nicely optioned car and financing it in-house with a decent down payment. There isn't much demand, but then you sometimes find people who want a new car and need it quickly and go with the dealership easiest to sign papers with. Nissan. They'll get you a car.

    I drove a 2022 Nissan Altima rental car and I was surprised at how much I liked it. The seats are so comfortable. The base engine had ample power. The interior has a nice, quality feel to it. The interior space is very roomy, even the back seats. And I loved the large trunk. And it got great gas mileage in the time I had it.

    Yes to your point I have never had much trouble with Nissan engines however I've always been very wary of their transmissions. You would think they would have developed more reliable robust transmissions with all the experience they have of how not to do it

    The Final Thoughts. Man, that was epic. I felt like I was reading the last page of "War and Peace" or "Wuthering Heights". You just couldn't have been any more serious. :D :D :D. And you only blinked once during the whole thing. Awesome.

    It looks like they don't include the auto dim interior mirror which also has the homelink garage door opener. Nice mirror, and the homelink works well on my altima sl.

    Having owned a 370Z with the VVEL system (which by all accounts is reliable), I trust Nissan to execute complex ideas in engine evolution. I'm not going to buy one of these, but if I had to guess I'd say the variable compression system will perform and age well. Perhaps we'll see it used more widely.

      It has performed well, 6 years of production with VC turbos on nissan/infiniti models. The negative stigma comes from unreliable owners/ lack of maintenance.

      @@stevev1008 for real? I hadn't heard of it before today. But when you think of how complex an engine already is, this isn't all that much more complicated. Just a few extra moving parts.

    You guys are hilarious. The rap music and the veiny arm crack me up.
