I highly suggest the 2010 Nissan Altima! Just bought it Friday and this has been me since buying it ----->:jiggy:

Never been in love with a car but I can officially say, I am in love!

I rented an Altima to drive to the Insight Bowl last month and was really impressed with it. Great gas mileage, excellent handling, very comfortable, lots of power...pretty much everything I would want in a car.

I looked at the Maxima back in June when I bought my Acura and liked it pretty well. Nissan does think pretty highly of themselves though based on their pricing. The Maxima I looked at had a sticker on it of $39k. It had all the options, and I know the base is closer to $30, but in that range and with those features I prefered the Acura.

I want the 2010 Maxima. One day I will get one.


Would be a great car for the low 30's loaded but 40K is way to much for a fwd, cvt, maxima. For 40K, I'd choose the G35.

That's just me thought.

I went in for an oil change the other day (wifes rogue) and I was suprised to see a 4cyl Altima with a sticker of 30K. I was expecting the mid 20's. I think it had the technology package, which adds a lot. Did seem like a nice car though.

My preference would be with one of the 2 GTR's they had in the showroom. Unfortunately $80K is a little out of my price range.:skeptical:

Guess I didnt know the G37 were cheaper. I dont plan on buying brand new cars anyways. Get a slightly used Maxima and I will be fine.

aww yes the GTR. maybe once i will powerball.

I've seen plenty of new Maxima's on the road and I don't get it - the G37 is a far superior car and with incentives, the same price or even cheaper.

i like the look of the maxima a better but other than that i agree there isnt much difference.

We rented a 2010 Maxima when we were back in IA a few weeks back. It was great car for the wife and I, but with three kids (one an infant) it is tough to beat a minivan. :sad:

I got a new 2009 Sentra the last week of "Cash for Clunkers" and love it. Being just out of college, couldnt quite go up to the Altima level but am completely thrilled with my Sentra. Also, I went for the SR model that was sportier (small spoiler and lower body kit and fog lights) but same starting price as the S model. Here it isL (the finishing touches have to be the ISU plates)

He got a 09 VW Jetta TDI stick diesel and man is that thing freaking cool. Hella good gas mileage and it is one nice car.

I test drove one of these when I bought my last car and I liked it a lot. I really like the idea of a diesel but I wish I knew that the prices would stay in line with normal gas.

A minivan will never be owned by me.
