thats mine...and if it means anything i ran a LT1 6spd camaro with intake and full exhaust the other night and stayed right beside him. my car is an auto and to tell you the truth i was actually surprised at how well i kept up.

Thanks for saying that. That make me want it even MOAR. Not being sarcastic either. I really would like a 3.5 altima. Im trying to find one in my price range right now that doesnt have to many miles on it.

Hows the trunk space for stuff like subs or whatever?

trunk space is really nice. i got mine with 40k miles on it for around 14k. i work at a nissan dealership so that was my employee price...but ive definitly seen some on the private market for cheaper...also look into the SE-R. they look better than an SE but arent quite as fast due to excess weight.

I say go with a mazdaspeed 3 //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Learn how to drive manual, it's not that hard. Hell your in San Diego, i can give you lessons for like 20 bucks or something if you drive up here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

How bout a GTI?

I need to call my insurance people and see how much it would go up with various vehicles. They will do that right?

Im starting to think Im dead set on the altima. Theres always been something about them I liked ever since I first saw one. I would love to learn to drive manual, but I think I would rather have the convience of an auto.

Still gonna go out a test drive a bonneville tomorrow for the lulz. Ive always liked them and there is one local with only like 60 something k miles on it for 7k. Its a 2001 bonneville sle.

just keep looking, and its ok to walk away from the car if your not happy with something.

take this advice..cars are not something you want to buy impulsively. always a better car/better deal, just gotta look around and take your time..good luck! my mom got a 3.5 altima rental when her car was in the shop...definitely a good choice, i loved it.

Did I say ls1? I couldve sworn I said lt1.

Oh that's right..... I DID say lt1

And btw mr. Camaro still thinks his mullet machine is the shit so we're takin it to the drag strip Thursday if the weather permits and I should have some vids later in the week, win or lose.

even uglier.. the outside doesn't need to be HUGE for a medium sized sedan..

Idk my 2001 alti may be slow but it looks 10x better than any 2002+ I have seen.. the coupes are ok though..

Different strokes for different folks. I really enjoy my car. And of all of the cars in nissans recent lineup the altima was the perfect choice for me. I couldve gotten a Z but it just wasn't practical for me ( backseat, insurance)
