Author's Review
Ok, so i had a 2003 nissan frontier truck that we liked, but it was just too plain and had a funny smell and made to much noise and was always dirty.. After looking at a number of diffrent cars, we came back to our good ol stand bys Nissan... I test drove a regular 1.8 SE and it was BLahh... Even with the sun roof and all its options... Then danny our sales guy showed me the SE-R..Purrfect!
The sentra SE-R has a 2.5 CVTEC 4..Baiscly the same engine as the new altimas... But boy, its a world of diffrence from the altima.. It flies... This is our 6th sentra and wow... It can get up to speed with little trouble. It handles with aplomb, taking on mountain roads with high speed..This car will get you a ticket if you arent careful..But believe it or not, it has a very smooth ride. You wouldn't think it would, but it does. Mine has Firestone firhawk tires and they hanldle the rain well. The body is a tad stiffer than a standard sentra and that helps alot too. It gets about 25 mpgs around town and 32 on the interstate.. Not bad for a car with such prowess.
The seats are made up of a velour type of material with mesh inserts.. They are so comfortable..Everyone who has ridden in the car can't believe how comfortable the seats are..The plastics in this car don't look or feel cheap, they feel like a car that would have cost thousands of dollars more. The radio sounds ok and sounds even better when you figure out all the adjustments...My car doesn't have the rockford fosgate system and i really see no point in getting this,as it comes in a very pricey upgrade package.. The a.c works well and very quickly and so deos the heat and defrost. My car has the air filtration system and it does what is says.. I passed by a skunk and barley smelled it once i turned the recirc. function on.. The back seat is small and can hold a small adult or kid ok, but no one bigger... This car has very little road or wind noise..
This is the best car we have ever had..It combines the power of a much larger car, with the handling of a sports car with the versitly of a sedan...
