Incredible handling on steep, curvy mountain roads.
I bought I bought my Nissan Altima in 2001 it was a 1996 model I've had it since ever since then. The seats are very comfortable and has good visibility there aren't many blind spots it goes fast and it also is handles well on curvy Mountain Roads especially where I live when it's wet a lot it rains I need a car that handles well. I have a manual transmission 5 speed stick shift so that really helps also when driving on mountain roads. Erase you kids in this car and it has served my family well has proven to be reliable durable and affordable. I would purchase again and I would recommend to friends and family it's a good car.
