Edmunds' Expert Review
by the Edmunds Experts
What’s new
The Nissan Sentra is totally redesigned for 1991. Edges are smoothed out and corners are rounded, giving the '91 Sentra a more substantial feel. A racy SE-R is introduced with an outstanding little 140-horsepower engine. All other Sentras get a 110-horsepower engine that is about average for this class. A four-speed automatic transmission is available on all Sentras but the SE-R.

1991 Nissan Sentra SE-R 2dr Coupe
I have had my SER for 6 years now.
Absolutely no problems except CV boot
replacement. The car is still very
fast and gets great mileage. What other
car from the early 90s has a 7600 rpm
redline and gets 30 miles to a gallon?
Back seat is very spacious with good
head room. Overall, I am extremely
happy with the car. I don't think the
new SER is in the same league. … So if
you are lucky enough to find one the
best cars according to Car and Driver,
get it!
One of best cars i ever had !

1991 Nissan Sentra SE 2dr Coupe
1992 sentra coupe 5 speed - bought it with 60,000 miles - beat a living crap out of it- did about 45,000 miles in 2 years
and changed 6 or 7 sets of tires - cause i was burning them to the wires ! - nothing broken ever in this car and then i sold it with about 105,000 miles to my friend - he beat it even more for about 2 years and finally at about 150,000 miles he hit a huge pot hole … that broke suspension ,wheel and engine and transmission mounts and he turned it to the junk yard after that - car was still running !
bang for the buck

1991 Nissan Sentra SE-R 2dr Coupe
This car rocks. I read about SE-Rs ten
years ago and found this one by
accident about 2 years ago on a lot for
$2200. It was a one-owner car in great
condition, aside from fading paint. It
is small, fun to drive, very fast, very
maneuverable, and just the perfect car
for a guy on a budget.
Best for a long, long time

1991 Nissan Sentra E 2dr Coupe
Bought the base model new in April
1991 - only had radio and A/C added.
Paid 8,000 and drove it for 234,000
miles before selling it. At time of
sale, engine still was at factory
compression specs. That thing should
run forever. Plenty of power, very
comfortable, incredibly reliable.
