Right on Brian. My Uncle has a 2002 (I think) Altima and he loves it. It is a nice drive.

Thanks guys. It was so weird. All I wanted to do was have her drive one. She said she liked it but never driven one, and neither did I. Did the research on them and new what they were all about. We went to test drive an SE. Got there and asked about it and the women we dealt with said, we have an SE-R if you want to try it out. I was like

So off we went. The car had 46,000 km's on it. No way I was going to pass it up. They are also cutting me a cheque to pay the remainder of the lease I have with GM (3 months) and all in all, my payments from van to car are going to be virtually the same!

This car is wicked!!
