"I bought with 140k miles. I picked it up for only 750$ manual transmission. These cars have common issues including a windshield wiper arm that stops working and sometimes a power steering pressure hose leak. Rear breaks last til about 150k. HVAC resistor module also goes out on these. Other then that these cars require very little maintenance and gets EXCELLENT gas mileage and go a lot longer than ANY american made (ford,dodge,GM) vehicle will go!"

"If you can deal with the Nissan dealers prices then this car will be a good car. However, there is no grace from the dealer when it comes to prices of maintenance. I will also tell you not very many people know how to work on a nissan.. I have been to the other guys and they have cost me more than I save.... buyer beware of the maintenance."

"This car has been with me thru my teens, twenties and now thirties, and its still getting 30 mpg. However, it is showing its age now. The air conditioner isn't working, and the headliner is falling down. Sadly, I think its time to get something else."

He is a work in Progress!

"My first official car turned out to be my lil Sentra and I love him <3 He takes me everywhere and makes sure I get there safe. Only had one problem and it was overheating because I needed to replace the radiator and water pump. And yet it still got me home that day. I will never rid of it!"
