1998 Nissan Altima

Pros: Price, quality

Cons: none

Review: I'm the original owner of a 1998 Nissan Altima GXE and I can say with near certainty that it's the best valued car available.

It has great acceleration despite the lack of a V6. It came stocked with all the needed extras without any...

Pros: price, features, reliability

Cons: rear middle seat,

The Bottom Line: Get one if you can, i think you can get a good used one for about 8-10 grand.

Review: In 1998 it was time for our family to get a new car. We wanted something reliable, roomy, and less than 20k, at the time there were many cars on the market, like the Toyota Camry and Honda accord, but they cost more and didn’t have all the features we wa ...

Pros: Cheap, decent power, nice interior, nice standard options

Cons: Styling, handling.

The Bottom Line: A great mid sized sedan that will last a long time. Add the sticker price, repairs, and the 25+ MPG and your wallet will be happy.

Review:
The 1998 Nissan Altima is pound for pound a much better car than most people give it credit for.

Engine- The 150 horsepower 163 ft pound torque engine is enough to give you the feeling of power when you need it.
It is a 2.4 Inline...

Pros: Total dependability and economy

Cons: None

Review: Hats off to Nissan for the quality built Altima! I bought a 1998 LXE for business purposes and have put over 20,000 miles on the car each of the past two years. With the exception of tires and regular oil changes I have had absolutely zero problems with...

Pros: Very large inside, looks great, good gas mileage

Cons: Non that I can think of

Review: There is one thing that has to be said about this car... ROOMY! I owned a 1995 Altima and it was wonderful. When I baby-sat my nephew there was plenty of room to put the car seat, and you didn't have to move the front seat any. My best friend has this...

Pros: Fantastic mid size car. 30MPG, low maintenance

Cons: too sexy for a lump like me

The Bottom Line: A great car ownership experience

Review: I actually bought this car as a favor for a friend who was going overseas. Although the Nissan Altima was off my radar at the time, I've been pleasantly surprised.

For the price category, the car handles well. It has a great style, and has not...

Pros: smooth, comfortable, peppy, attractive

Cons: fuel efficiency not as high as others in its class

Review: While the Altima gets slightly less fuel efficiency than the Geo Prizm I used to own, it is, in my opinion, a much better value. The 5-speed is easy to shift, the steering is easy but firm, and the acceleration is peppy but not break-neck. I am also...

Pros: Inexpensive used, economical, reliable, thrifty

Cons: if needed, parts can be harder to find and more expensive than american made cars

The Bottom Line: For the money, it is a good buy. Be carefull where/who you buy yours from. Learn as much history as possible. Don't recommend getting an automatic.

Review: My wife and I decided after 3 years driving a gas sucking full size SUV, we had had enough. We were tired of 13mpg around town, high payments and insurance. We found a one owner 1998 Nissan Altima with 60K on it (this was late 2003)with a 5 speed to ...

Pros: Price, Tough Car

Cons: Steering wheel vibration at certain high speeds, Cabin Noise

The Bottom Line: This is a great car for college and small family. It is a sturdy car, I reccomend it.

Review: My dad got this car for me because I go to college 6 hours awayfrom home. I looked at a camry and the altima. I liked the camry but it was priced higher than the altima. The cam. was about 14-15k and my altima cost 12500 with 12k miles on it, we...

Pros: A lot for the money.

Cons: None

Review: We purchased a 1998 Nissan Altima a little over two years ago, and it has been money well spent. The main reason we bought the Altima was because we felt we were getting the most bang for our buck. We paid about $18,000 for a GLE... and that included...
