2005 Nissan Sentra SE-R SpecV review from North America
"Fun car."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. Car has been flawless.
General comments?
I bought this car after owning a 1995 Neon for a few years. I hated that piece of garbage. I spent a few hours at the dealership buying my 2005 specv, but I ended up paying $16,100 when all was said and done. This car is very fast for being stock and seems solid. My only complaints thus far are that I hate where the cup holders are placed and the car has insane torque steer. Both of which, I can live with. There aren't too many other cars out there that will go 0-60mph in 7 seconds for under $18,000. Also, renualt will be picking up the manufacturing of the sentras soon, so if you're thinking about buying one, now is the time. You should be able to get a good deal on one.
