  So Far So GOOD - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By Brom - April 19 - 2:10 pm

  I got my Spec V a little to soon so I had the pay the MSRP. Overall I like the way this car drives, the shifter is very nice once you get a hang of it. very fun to drive. the rims are nice but they chip very easly since they are painted rims. For the price and performance you have to give up some thing and I guess nissan was willing to give up workmanship. the paint job is not to good and most of the sentras are not painted under the doors.

  Ive had my Spec V for a little over a month now and I really dont have any complaints. Very fun to drive, powerful for a 4 banger, decent styling, pretty cool interior. Would buy again.

  spec V - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By timmy b - February 24 - 10:00 am

  i just bought the 2002 nissan se-r spec V about a week ago. this car i VERY fun to drive and VERY fast. the 2 things i dont like about it is the color of the seats, there all red unless you get the leather package and the dealership where i got the car (Colonial Nissan) gave me s**t about getting the floor mats that were supposed to come with the car. other than that its a good deal!

  Smooth Ride - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By acm147 - February 13 - 10:00 am

  I drove cross country in my Sentra this summer. 1700 miles in two days, and every mile was a delight. The sound system and 6 disc changer also made traveling more enjoyable.

  Great car that could have been better. - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By hydrointeract - January 14 - 2:00 am

  Have about 18k miles on the car in two years. Has been in the shop twice for recalls, and has a consistent problem with starting. Dealership says it probably floods, told me to press down gas pedal when starting if this happens. Has happened about 12 times in last year. Problem still not found, though Ive towed it to the dealership twice. A shame since its less than 2 years old. Almost always takes a long time to start. It does, however, get a LOT of compliments when out driving.

  Awesome freaking car - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By Peatrie - December 14 - 10:00 am

  This car is the best Ive owned. I went from a 98 Neon to My 02 sentra and I love this car. The 6 speed manual is easy to shift and the stereo is awesome. The sub could use a little more power but still awesome. The styling really looks ballzy.

  Awsome car off the line - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By daaaaaaan - October 14 - 2:00 am

  I really love this car and dont regret getting it at all. Kinda wish mine had a sun roof but its all good. Extremely fun car to drive. Excellent handling, acceleration, and braking. Dealership sucked, but I cant hold that against the vehicle. Ive gotten tons of compliments on this car. This car is no joke at all.

  I would not recommend this car!!!! - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By Brittany - September 28 - 10:00 am

  Ive taken my car to the dealership more times than I care to count. This car has A LOT of problems. It wont start. It dead stopped on railroad tracks, dealer said they fixed it, got the car back and four hours later it stopped in the middle of the road again!!! I had my cruise control on for 45 min. on the interstate and all of the sudden it started accelerating. My feet were no where near the pedals. I had to turn of cruise control to get it to stop. Nissan customer service really sucks and they wont help you at all!!! Ive had major recalls on this car and honestly fear for my life when I drive it. God only knows what it will do nex

  Nothing flashy, but great reliable ride - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By Jason - September 10 - 12:26 am

  Bought back in 09/02 and the only issue Ive come across is the parking brake light wont go out (happened around 50k mi) - Other than that its been extremely reliable. It was -30 degrees here in MN not to long ago for about a week and it started fine every morning like a champ. Ride is smooth.

  Love my Sentra! - 2002 Nissan Sentra
  By Keith - September 6 - 4:13 am

  I bought this care new with the upgraded Synergy Package and used it for service, I have had it 4 years and have 150k plus miles on it. I have no no problems with it, but the transmission does chirp from second to third gear shifts up and down both, but it hasnt affected the performance of it. I run it hard and its been a wonderful car, I havent even changed the plugs in it yet. It eats front brakes up about every 35k but I want to keep it and put 400k on it!
