1998 Nissan Primera GX review from Chile
"Great economical fun to drive car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
Very reliable car. Reasonable performance and gas mileage.
Very uncomfortable driver seat, automatic transmission does not shift smoothly specially between first and second and when engine is cold.
Suspension is rather sporty (hard).
Engine is very responsive above 2500 RPM, style is rather anonymous, but good looking. Good trunk capacity, very comfortable and spacious back seat, very good upholstery.
After 5 years of use car runs great and has any noise, proving that fit and finish is well done.
My car was made in Japan.
