6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 I saw all the rave reviews and features it had, and I thought the car would be around $40,000 CAD at least. However, it turned out to be $30,000 which was in my budget. I took it for a spin and was instantly sold.

2012 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 I lease it for $311/month with added tire/windshield/paintless dent repair. That's with no down payment.
2008 2dr Coupe 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed manual FWD		 not a good value for the money
2008 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4

2008 2dr Coupe 270-horsepower 3.5L V6
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 When I negotiated for the altima the cheapest the dealership would come down to was just over 25,000. It was the 2.5 sl package (leather, bose stereo, etc. For another 1,400 I bought the accord v6 with the premium stereo, leather, moonroof, etc.
2007 4dr Sedan 175-horsepower 2.5L I4
6-speed shiftable CVT FWD		 The price is a bit on the high side when comparing to domestic automobiles, yet a lot can be said about costumer service and a high quality product. I for one will be a repeat costumer of nissans
