Altima coupe to be sold in May

Altima Coupe to be sold in May

For the $20,490 base price get you an Altima Coupe 2.5 S with a six-speed manual transmission. An extra $500 ($20,990), gets you the CVT transmission in place of the stick. Both cars feature the 2.5L four-cylinder producing 170 horsepower. As nice as that sounds, how could one pass up on the available 270-horsepower, 3.5L VQ-Series V6 engine? Available in uplevel SE models with a six-speed manual tranny starting at $24,890. Again, add another $500 to make it $25,390 for a 3.5 SE with Nissan's CVT transmission. Twenty-five grand for a 270-hp, stylish coupe sounds pretty good to us.

another boring, forgettable coupe with looks that won't age well... A "throwaway" design, IMO.

It's a G6 coupe competitor...aka, beater. Also, it's not meant to look like a Ferrari, and its classic design will age well.

I think its a great looking car, and seems like a good deal. I don't think the mustang really competes with this. I think Ford could give us a Fusion coupe and it would hardly steal any sales away from the Mustang.

Saw it at the Atlanta Show this year, its a fairly nice looking Coupe. Definitely a mini-G35.

Except the G35 is at least RWD, as is the 350Z

This thing can suck it

True, but not everyone is after RWD. Got to make cars people want (and can afford)

Yeah, you think the four seancing chicks in the Nissan ads expect burnout/donut ability from their cars?
