Default Thoughts: Nissan Altima SE-R

Alright guys so this summer I am getting rid of my egg('02 Civic Si) and I am looking to pick up a 4 door sedan but its gotta be quick.

I was looking at the Nissan Altima SE-R cause its got some good power and I personally love the looks. I was just wondering if you guys like the car at all or have some other cars you think I should go out and test drive. Just keep in mind my price range is >24k

Found 2 with less than 15k miles for 20ish

I'd tell you to buy a used Infiniti G35. Or even if you really don't need the 4seats, a used 350Z for 20K. But as far as Altima, my mom has one. It's pretty smooth, not so sure if it has the Sport feel you are looking for. It's more of a nice looking car for daily use and just a hint of power to fool you. Def test drive it and then sleep on it for 2 days. Because when you test drive it you think it's pretty nice, but when you think about it in afew days, it's not that crazy to spend 24K on.

Ex had one. Good car, nice amenities. Quick for a big ass 4 door. I would recommend to anyone as long as your not looking for a fast car.

The Altima SE-R is a very nice car. I've driven a few of them but have never been interested in owning one simply because a 4 door sedan is not something I need/want. The only thing I dislike about the car is that it is FWD and has torque steer like crazy. The interior is very nice, seats are very comfy, and the overall setup is great. Aside from the torque steer I love the car, and if you can manage with that I suggest picking one up!

I am not looking for a FAST car, just something quick, but can still be ethical, reliable and something that can hold more than 2 people comfortably

I'm with M3-DIS. I would go with a used g35. It's what you are looking for in RWD form. It's also pretty quick, reliable, and comfortable for at least four adults (the sedan form). Plus, you get the luxury and recognition of Infiniti.

Used 4 door G-35 They are cheaper than the coupes cause most people dont want them. But still RWD!!
