The Nissan Altima is, imo. the very best value, dollar for dollar in the automotive world. As a former employee of Nissan and being somewhat familiar with the engineering of the car. I personally wouldn't own anything else in that particular class of automobile. Even today they are using the same 4 cylinder engine they have used since the early 1970's, albeit tweaked and tweaked again over the years. It also happens to be the engine they use in their 4 cyl trucks, or at least it was until about 4 years ago when I stopped following these things. Our 1999 has over 90,000 miles and all we have done is tires (1 set) and brake pads other then the routine oil changes and an alignment now and again.
