What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the the Nissan Sentra
| Price of the Nissan Sentra: Pros | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD | Car was priced at $13,999 making payments under $200 a month. |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 177-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed shiftable CVT FWD | We lease for $250 a month for 24 months and 15,000 miles per year with only $500 down. Payments include tax. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD | VERY inexpensive to own & maintain |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD | They were pretty darned inexpensive new, and downright cheap used. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD | Paid $14,000 |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD | Price was not bad when I got it for the indicated performance(things are changing now that other manufacturers are getting better and cheaper) |
| Price of the Nissan Sentra: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2008 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD | I think this car is slightly overpriced. Though depending on when and where you buy, there is potential for a good deal. |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD | To get the essential features, you are forced to buy overpriced bundles with trivial value features. |
| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD | seems like for 25k fully loaded yu shld get leather and a little bit more thoughtfully tuned suspension |

| 2006 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
very well built for an import car |
| Materials and Workmanship of the Nissan Sentra: Cons | ||
| Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
| 2007 | 4dr Sedan 140-horsepower 2.0L I4 CVT FWD |
Some interior bits are EASILY scratched. |
| 2004 | 4dr Sedan 126-horsepower 1.8L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
First week of ownership, glove box fell out onto floor, dash panel popped off. |
| 2003 | 4dr Sedan 165-horsepower 2.5L I4 4-speed automatic FWD |
They obviously never tested these vehicles prior to selling them. While the 2.5 ingine was great in performance the engine was built horribly. Sensors failing, transmission problems, Engine fires. Materials used to build everything under the hood is garbg |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
As expected, there is widespread use of plastics in the interior (it's not a G35 sedan, y'know), and these tend to be prone to cracking over time, especially if you park outside all the time. The fit and finish is good, even though an occasional rattle can be heard. Also, the clips that hold both bumpers and front grills in place could have been better. The fit and finish isn't all that bad, though, the car's pretty solid despite these quirks. |
| 2002 | 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4 6-speed manual FWD |
Poor quality paint Poor quality materials which die before usual mileage but is not bad if you drive a lot and are still within warranty... 6 months out of warranty and you are out of luck even with very very low miles |
