it doesnt' get any 29mpg now. whatever the EPA regs say, those are wrong.
I agree, but I have yet to run a full tank on the highway. I have averaged 26mpg for 8k+ miles and I do a good bit of city driving. I love this car. My only disappointment is with fit and finish. The interior is pretty cheap looking...too much plastic. But you get what you pay for and I was looking for a reasonably fast car that got decent mileage and was under $20k. The SpecV fit the bill.

Maybe not for us but if they put it on the sticker then it did for whoever mattered.
heh, if you drive 50-55 on highways and accelerate like an old granny yes, the car will do about 30. I've logged a bit over 30, driving like an old fart because I was too cheap to pay for gas, but then again I have a little less power than spec guys.
i talked to one nissan salesman who is a friend of my brother.
according to what he said, nissan is planning to discontinue the sentra series (including the spec v) by 2007 and will be replaced by the "nissan cube."
the "cube" will replace the sentra as nissan's economy car.
he also mentioned that it will compete with toyota's scion series.
most of you probably know that the scion is all show and no go.
well, the salesman also said that the "cube" will have an engine that will smoke scions.
ok. that's just what i heard. i hope they don't.
i asked him if nissan is going to rerelease the 240 series... who knows?
Maybe not for us but if they put it on the sticker then it did for whoever mattered.
nobody got the numbers on the sticker. Those are found out by mathematical equations.
No, the sentra is not going to be replaced by the Cube........the Sentra is going under a totally new redesign in 2006 and Nissan wouldn't waste their money doing that if they were to drop the line.
A little tip for you: Don't listen to dealer salesmen. They rarely know what they're talking about.
sounds like the dealer is full of shit(like most of the time) as far as replaces the sentra with a Cube? i dont think i could buy a car named "the cube" lol it just doesnt sound right..."my cube tears ass!"
