The Altima been good to me😢

I've been looking at what's available on the market 'cause I'mma need to pick up a second car. Saw a few older Altimas, but in particular I ran across an Altima coupe with the 3.5L V6 under the hood. Checks off a bunch of boxes for me but it was an automatic, and when I looked at what transmission was in those, it's a CVT, which I have absolutely no faith in. Wouldn't mind one with the 6 speed in it, but never the CVT.

Have you had any issues with your transmission? Or do you have a manual?

I got a manual. 3.5L I think.

I had to get the gear shit fixed about 2 years ago but it's been purring like a kitten ever since. That was the only major work I've had done on it in the 16yrs or so i've owned it.

Yep, lol. My BMW had a plastic oil pan. That was one of the major repairs needed. Would have cost over $2k to fix. I figured if I’m not leaking oil, keep rolling.

Rode that bitch another 2 years after I was first told then traded it in. Somebody else’s problem now. 🤷🏾

YUP!!! It was squarely in the Countach/Testarossa territory back then and I genuinely believe they were more expensive that he said. At least I remember 'em being more expensive.

(edit) There was also the AMG Hammer Sedan that came out a year or so earlier. I remember seeing exactly one of those in Metro Detroit in the late 80's.
