2016 Nissan Sentra SR Faster than what's said

I bought this car with 4 miles, I have put over 1000 miles on it and it has decent pickup, it's not a mustang or a high end sports car, but I didn't buy it for racing. Car has tight suspension, great tire size 17" Wheels, low profile 50r, continentals. I drive the car in Chicago, where it's a hustle and I have had no problems changing lanes or enjoying the drive. I like this car, and hearing negative reviews makes me laugh. All I did was put in a K&N air filter, that's all and put in 89 octane gasoline and the car runs like a gem.

This vehicle has serious transmission issues, only a year with It and already transmission problema are popping up. The finishing also is poor. Not sure what is the sound on the trunk, but very antique way of closing and opening (check the trunk inside). Also the door handler are very weak easy to break (driver side already getting loose).

Excellent car. Very sporty with the SR trim, in red alert. It gives a very quiet, comfortable, and spacious ride. Mine has the electronics and drivers assist package. I love the navigation and the interior accent lighting. It's very roomy, especially the back seat and trunk. Almost as roomy as an Altima. More spacious than my 2000 5 series. My only complaint is that it could use more power. At least a turbocharged 4 cylinder. I love the car as it feels more premium than it costs. Check it out.

Great sporty looking commuter car. Its not a sports car so don't expect it to perform like one but it does have very good performance.

The one bad thing is the cvt trans every 60k fluid change very expensive 250,00 uses special Nissan only fluid 19.00 a qt and cvt can't be rebuilt when they go a 5,600 job put in new one. The car has many great features great mileage, a lot of room big trunk, nice interior sr has 17 inch tires rear disc rides gd.Has new trans Nissan xtronic says all previous pronblems fixed hope so, car is slow needs more power 1.8 and 130 horse for 2900 lb car is unacceptable. THE TRANSMISSION IS CRAP DO NOT BUY A NISSAN TILL THEY FIX THE TRANS PROBLEMS THEY FAIL EARLY AND OFTEN.. THEY OVERHEAT AND AT 49K MINE WAS ACTING, UP BAD CHANGED FLUID FOR 250.00 NOW IS OK TERRIBLE
