Used 2009 Nissan Altima for Sale

There are very few Mid-sized cars that fit a person of my size, 6'6" tall. This is one of them. I am very comfortable in this car on both short and long trips. The interior is comfortable and well appointed. My car has all available options except for the GPS Navigation system. The leather seats are firm but comfortable and the controls are well thought out and within easy reach from the driving position. Visibility is good with only smallish blind spots. The Bose sound system is incredible, the bass is deep with none of the vibration at high audio levels. The drive train is bullet proof. As long as you do the regular prescribed maintenance this car will run forever. I have over 75000 miles on the car and have had no major mechanical issues at all. This is my third Nissan product (second Altima) and have found the drive train to be of very good quality. I get close to 30 MPG on the highway and about 25 MPG in mixed driving. The CV transmission takes some getting used to but helps contribute to the very good gas mileage. I do a lot of the maintenance myself and for the most part Nissan has not gone the way of most manufacturers but constructing the car to be impossible for the layman to work on. The car is very stylish and stand out a bit from the Honda and Toyota models it competes against. When I am ready for a new car the next generation Altima will be at the top of the list.

The Nissan Altima body shape is smooth, sleek, and modern. The silver trim around the windows and mirrors give it a classy look. The headlights and fog lights shine bright and look great at night. The inside dash is user friendly and updated with blue tooth and wireless syncing technology that works great with IPhone and Android operating systems. The general engine lasts long term with only minor repairs needed in the 6 years it has been driven. The wireless key fob entry has been faulty, however, and the Nissan has had to be taken to the dealer several times to be re-set. Manufacturer wipers need more pressure to clear windshield in winter months in Northern US states - they become ice cakes while driving. Manufacturer tires are average but Nissan drives much better with winter/snow tires (again for Northern State owners). This does add the inconvenience of changing tires seasonally and is a big con. The Nissan Altima has great gas mileage though, averaging over 30 on the hwy and 28 in the city, and this has held steady throughout the life of the car. The seats are not leather (con) but the fabric they do come with is easy to clean (pro) and the 4 door version has a very roomy backseat and large trunk space. The backseat also provides drink cup options for guests.
