I went with my friend of a dealer test drive and I liked the car. It has decent power. It's very nice inside and the clutch pedal is light. I don't know how good it's on gas, but if you have the money don't worry about it. Nissan makes nice cars I like SER Altima. Now for that much money you might want to look at the Acura Spec C or something like that. That is better. But once again it's your decision.

My understanding is that the handling is better than the regular 6 cylinder Altima, but it's not any faster.

No way in hell that thing will do 0 to 60 in 5 seconds. All that extra body cladding, bigger wheels, different suspension etc makes the SE-R a very heavy vehicle. All with with 265 horsepower. 0 to 60 in 6 seconds and the quarter mile in 15.

Don't waste your money on that **** man, it doesn't look nearly as good as other 4 door sedan, and it's still an Altima MAN!!!

Peformance wise, not that bad, but I still take them all day everyday. For that price, y not an EVO or STi ?

The only nissan is worth to buy are: 350z, maxima
