If Nissan was smart they’d stuff that twin turbo v6 in the Altima to give it a good send-off. That would sell out🤣

[Moondoggy]

So Nissan would rather go bankrupt instead of giving people what they want, a real transmission. Sounds exactly what Nissan will do.

Kirk. I’ve been following you since you were selling Lexus’ in Omaha! I currently own a 2022 Altima SV all wheel drive model and have no trouble with mine! I did own 5 different Camrys prior to trying an Altima. I always appreciate each of your videos! Mark in Iowa.

I'm going to hold on as best as I can to my 3.5 6-Speed manual Altima, that is a fun semi-sporty sedan, I would almost fight my life for it!

I'll be keeping my 2017 maxima 3.5...might have to go with infinity v6 turbo or Lexus v6. Its a shame the v6 is going away. Nissan called and asked if I wanted to trade my car in..i told them no way. Not trading in a tried and true dependable engine for the newer crap.

Nissan for the longest time has nothing outstanding compared to their competitors. Even being cheaper cannot out do their CVT's infamy.

[NissanAltimaGuy]

A shame more people didn’t opt for the 2.0 VC-Turbo. It’s just as efficient as the 2.5 but way more powerful! My 19’ just turned 6 years old and is about to hit 70k miles. Only real issue was the washer fluid sensor around 12k miles it’s been solid.

If Nissan wants to stick w/ CVT, they need to abandon the Jatco janky setup and do an eCVT either like Honda has implemented it OR like Toyota has implemented it (planetary gear set setup).

[mike]

never would’ve been comfortable owning that VC turbo

[Mylifeislegendary-vdvI]

Camry remains the king and class leader of mid size sedans like always 👑🤴👑. Overall only serious competition to the Camry is the new sonata and K5. Now that that accord and Altima is dying a slow death.

[IIQ-x]

How do most of you guys still make profit, even with the downturn of the economy and ever increasing life standards

[Danmandingo]

*So Happy I picked up a newer MAZDA3.* 🏎️

[NMRH]

Anybody else remember the Altima SE-R from 2005 where you could get a VQ35DE with a 6-speed manual?

[RS-qzby]

Can't wait for more Camry videos! Especially the LE. Absolutely loving my LE with convenience package

[yardboy]

I’d spend the extra money for the Camry, For the extra money there’s a pretty good chance Toyota will be around, I can’t say the same for Nissan especially if the car needs service, repairs + parts + recalls.

[vaxsur]

almost 40k for a altima might as well just buy a maxima😂

[Jabid]

No worries, we will have BAEs (Big Altima Energy) driving them for the next two decades weaving through traffic at 120 MPH on a base Altima with missing bumpers and broken windows. Kinda missing those Altima folks in the PNW, here I get Big Outback Energy instead.

[FestinedProductions]

love my '23 vc-turbo. sucks theyre gettin rid of it but i bought it used for 15k off msrp. i would never pay 38 grand for an altima so it makes sense

[hightiernub]

It's because of the dumb SUV trends of customers who don't know any better but to buy an SUV.

[han-bmkk]

Nissan is wasting their VC-Turbo and NEO for an normal 4-cylinder engine and electrification.

Nissan is totally dead because US they still didn't E-Power(Hybrid) models that caused their sales down as well of killing their most affordable sedan Versa and midsize Altima.
