Hey everyone. This is my first time here. I'm looking to buy a new altima 3.5 this weekend. I just wanted to know how everyone feels about their car and what are the performance upgrades available. Also, anything that anyone doesn't like about it? is the Bose Stereo system worth the extra $? The car that i looked at had just the Sport Package. Any opinions? Thanks in advance

I've been traveling around to the car lots looking for a second car. Every salesman I talked to likes the look and performance spec of my Altima. They all have said good things, and these are people in the know. I think?
Yeah, I test drove a 3.5 yesterday and man was it sweet. I just need to get bring the cash and my trade in. I've already been approved for everything.
oh, i also have another question. All the new engines are 3.5s. Are they all the same motors? if so, how do they get the extra horsepower in the Maxima and Z?

The Altima 3.5 is very restricted. Intake, exhaust is different from the Max and the Z. I'm sure there are other factors that contribute to the extra hp. Although our cars are restricted, the can be modded in so many ways

I too am waiting to see if I will keep mine. Presently I am on lease and the only mods I`ve done was a drop in K&N air filter and dynomat sound proofing in the trunk.
There`s a guy in town here with a ride like mine and he put larger tires on his and it rides like shit. He has to get a long run on just to keep up with me.

Skip the spoiler. Save the $399, get one off Ebay from spoilerDepot (mine was $150+ship) and install yourself. Leaves more money for mods.

I don't think you can skip the spoiler anymore if you get one of the "Sport" packages, cuz the spoiler is included all the sport packages for th 03, so every car on the lot with a sport package would have a spoiler. But I guess if he orders it from the factory he could skip anything he wants.

I used to buy stripped down cars with big engines and then load them up with accessories(they now call them mods).
This time I bought the 3.5 SE with everything that came with it, I had to add the spoiler because there wasn`t one on the ride but overall I`m glad I did.
