 I've had this car for about a month now, I traded my Nissan Versa in after only 10 months because the tranny went out on me at only 18,000 miles... so I was skeptical about getting another Nissan. I got such a great deal on the Altima I couldn't say no($15,000) brand new. My versa was only worth $4,500. So I said yes and now I have about 3,500 miles on it. So far it seems to be a great reliable vehicle. The Transmission is a little weird at first and might take some getting use to. The cabin is cozy and quiet. The Gas is nice to but depends how you drive the car. I average about 29.8 MPG. I was getting 42.3 MPG when I went to Arizona from Los Angeles , I didn't even have to stop and fill up. It cost just about 50 bucks or less to fill a full tank up. It drives like a dream though, handles amazing through the Malibu Canyons and Accelerates great up the hills. Couldn't be happier!!
