What Our Members Are Saying about the Price of the Nissan Xterra

Price of the Nissan Xterra: Pros
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 261-horsepower 4.0L V6
6-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range		 For the amount of transportation value which you receive, the car is priced below where I would expect it to be.
2003 4dr SUV 180-horsepower 3.3L V6
4-speed automatic RWD		 Very economical to own.
2002 4dr SUV 170-horsepower 3.3L V6
5-speed manual 4WD, part-time w/low range		 Excellent value for the features. Hard to find a real body on frame truck with a durable drivetrain for this money.
Price of the Nissan Xterra: Cons
YearBody/PowertrainComment
2012 4dr SUV 261-horsepower 4.0L V6
5-speed automatic 4WD, part-time w/low range		 Nissan Canada is greedy. There is no reason they should charge for xterra in Canada more than in US.
