  Best car Ive ever owned - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By michelle - January 1 - 5:46 am

  I bought the 2000 Nissan Altima GXE in 2004, when it had about 60k miles. It now has 119K, and has been, without a doubt, the most reliable, trouble-free car Ive ever owned. And Ive owned about 20. I just had to do a distributor last week, but that was the first real repair Ive had. Oh, and for some reason, I end up doing motor mounts every other year, but I like a very quiet, vibration free car, so it might just be me. The Nissan mechanic said the 99 and 00 model years of this car were the absolute best. I agree. In fact, Im thinking about moving up to a 2005, but Im afraid it wont be as good as the 2000 has been to me. If you cant afford headaches, buy this car.

  This car is fast!!!! - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By imforjc - September 3 - 10:00 am

  The factor stereo system was kinda lacking, so I replaced all the speakers, added 2 6x9s, tweeters, two 15" Rockford Fosgate DVC subs, 3 amplifiers, a four way crossover, and a nice Kenwood reciever. It certainly wakes up the neighborhood now!! And for only four cylinders, this car can move!!! I love beating my friends in races when I get 10mpg better than they do!!! I love this car!!!

  Not at all bad - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By Smeg - August 31 - 11:00 am

  Fun to drive and reliable. Not the quickest car on the road, but definitely not a slouch either. Comfortably seats 4 adults, with a suprisingly large trunk. I would have loved the manual instead of the auto. Comfortable over long drives, the car didnt get uncomfortable over a 10 hour stretch and back. Not easy on the gas around town unfortunately. Typical Japanese reliability and build quality. Interior is nothing amazing, but practical and easy to use.

  My Altima - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By K - July 19 - 11:50 pm

  This is my 4th Nissan. I go back to Datsun 1967. My Altima is acting strange - warning lights go on & off, and doors lock and unlock. The automatic/remote door lock device has never worked well. Also, the air conditioner keeps leaking.

  Watch out! - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By Larry B - June 20 - 5:45 am

  Bought this car for my son and daugther while in college. It was already is bad shape because the previous owner did not perform standard maintenance. Put almost $3000 into it to get to safety margins. Car is now inoperable due to engine failure. Dont recommend this car at this age.

  Fun To Drive, But... - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By Shawn - April 23 - 8:30 pm

  I really appreciate the Altimas handling and the engine is tolerable. But I have had several problems. I bought the car used and it developed some very annoying rattles. The intake manifold gasket went after one year (Nissan covered the repair), and the instrument cluster died on the interstate, and came back to life about 30 miles later. I love the way the car looks and handles, but I am dissapointed with the mechanical problems I have an encountered. I am really having a hard time deciding whether to keep it. With gas prices on the rise it may have to go. I typically get less than 20 mpg. I have a 6 cylinder Jeep that gets better gas mileage.

  Worth the price - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By RJ - January 25 - 12:23 pm

  I purchased the car new and had not had any real problems. The Firestone tires wore out in less than 35,000 miles. The first brakes are VERY loud for the first few miles. I would recommend this car to anyone. I have 70K and it is still running strong.

  . - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By albepositive - June 3 - 2:00 am

  This vehicle has given me absolutely no problems whatsoever. I have replaced tires, air filter, and oil, just routine maintenance. Car has decent acceleration with 5-speed manual, very good braking and excellent handling. Road noise with sporty tires on some types of pavement can be annoying and tires are not best invery wet and snowy conditions. My gas mileage has been so so, around 24-25 mpg probably from excessive speeding! For the money I paid, $16,900, this car is a great value, nothing outstanding, but nothing to complain about either. Based on this vehicles reliability I would buy a Nissan again

  reminds me of my dads 74 maverick - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By z-man - May 24 - 10:00 am

  I bought this car new as a left over in January 2001 for my wife as a "reliable" vehicle. First year was ok, second year the read end sounded as if it was going to drop out of the car if I went over a speed bump. Dealer ended up replacing bushings on the read torsion bar.....common problem Im told !!?? Then the pulley for the fan belt blows out the bearing and the belt falls off leaving my wife and daughter stranded on the interstate.....bottom line, had to tow the car and the dealer fixed it N/C. The Firestone tires that came on the car are almost bald at 30,000 miles.

  Very Solid, Reliable Automobile - 2000 Nissan Altima
  By M.P. Adams - April 5 - 10:00 am

  Probably one of the best automobiles I have ever owned. It may be a bit bland for some, but if you value reliability and comfort then this is the right car for you. So far, I have had minor problems with the electrical components(passenger power window not working, keyless entry system not working) all covered under warranty, but other than that I have been overly satisfied with my Altima, they really given it a V6 option though.
