1994 Nissan Altima SE review from North America
"Rear end at 65 mph and it will still run no problem!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I've needed to replace the timing cover once and just missed it under warranty at 60,000. Bummer. The airbag light is on for the second time even though the dealer checked and said it was fine. Uh yeah. Replaced the CV boot at around 70,000 and the clutch at around the same time. Previous owner abused it. Punk.
General comments?
The car rocks overall. I've been challenged to race many times by other fixed up Hondas, Toyotas and even Mustangs, twice. I don't blame them. Acceleration is awesome and the power has always been present. Handles pretty good to for a sedan. Comfortability is OK for leather seats but much prefer either replacing them or getting those other stock seats.
