Pros:

Styling, performance, and comfort

Cons:

hard to find any, still looking for them

Review:

Just bought mine, it's a '06 2.5 SE, in satin pearl white, just broke 500 miles, <sniff>. Planet Nissan here in Las Vegas is the best, they took care of any problems (i.e. dented hood from a delivery accident that wasn't even noticed till after the car was cleaned up, had it fixed and painted in 2 days, great work, and had a door speaker blow out for no apparent reason, replaced in 1 hour no questions asked, have a nice day), and treated me like I just bought a Bentley. I love my Altima, it's roomy, quick, and nimble for a large midsize sedan. the interior is well placed, and I found all the controls easy to reach and use without going thought the manual. This is my first Nissan, and I extremely pleased with it.

Pros:

The Look, style, gas mileage, roominess

Cons:

The Dealerships are horrible. They say the NEVER hear anything wrong when i bring it in.

Review:

I just purchased my 2006 Altima in March. I have now had to take it to get new rotors and brake pads for the front tires this week of June. They were squealing something bad! As far as rattling and squeaking mine has louder road noise than I expected but it just reminds me of a truck. I am overall happy with my car.

Pros:

Great looks, responsive, easy to handle, good on gas

Cons:

Nothing so far!

Review:

This is my first Nissan, and I must say I am very pleased. This car is very responsive and handles nicely. I've had it for 2 weeks now and I just today filled up the tank, the trip meter said 637 km (dealer's fill up). These were 85% city driving and 15% highway kilometers.
This car is sexy, outside and in! It's comfortable, the heated leather seats are fantastic, and the BOSE speaker system is excellent!

Pros:

Looks Good, Bose system performs well, good mileage, NO RATTLING (6 months old).

Cons:

Drivers seat/ceiling a little tight for me - but I'm pretty tall though.

Review:

This is the 2nd one I've bought (2.5 SL). First was a 94 GLE. So far this has been an exceptional car. I have had to return to the dealer once for a piece of loose molding that was taken care of promptly. (Jordan Walker Nissan - Charlotte NC). Service has been great, car has performed very well. Very satisfied.

Pros:

Peppy engine (especially for a 4 cyl.). Good looks, good handling, stopping and interior layout.

Cons:

Squeaks, rattles, road noise, paint scratches easily, terrible customer service and warranty.

Review:

I was excited at first with my new 2006 Altima until a few weeks later I started noticing a rattle in the dash. After waiting until I couldn't stand it anymore, I took it to the dealership and they said they couldn't hear it! I'm so frustrated and disappointed with them. This is in addition to them not sending me the touch up paint they owed me and now the salesman won't return my calls since he's got my money.

In addition to the dash rattle, there is excessive road noise and the clear coat on the paint is super thin so it scratches easily. I would have gladly paid the $25.00 they saved on materials and have my paint protected.

The latest issue that I have noticed is that the struts are making a squeaking noise then I come to a sudden stop or go over humps like on and off my driveway or the entry to a shopping area. I'm sure the Nissan mechanics won't be able to hear this either though.

I realize that it's hard to get a new car that doesn't need something fixed. I expect this, but when your warranty is no good then it leaves you feeling like a sucker.
