This car rocks!!!

Date of Review:  Apr 26, 2000
Review: I'm currently on my second Nissan Sentra, and I will probably keep driving them forever. My first one was a '94 that I bought used, and that car performed better than anything else I've driven (new Toyota Corollas, Dodge Neons, etc). I would still...

Vrrroooom.. and off we go

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2000
Review: I am a proud owner of a 1997 Nissan Sentra GXE. I never really looked at this type or size car before being a family of four (3yo & 5mo old). My old car was a 1993 Grand Prix. I didn't think we could fit into this car when the dealer showed it to us...

Usability of 1997 Nissan Sentra

Date of Review:  Sep 13, 1999
Review: I recently bought a 1997 Nissan Sentra. It is for my wife who must drive about 120 miles everyday, on the highway. I did a lot of research on this car before I bought it, using a wide variety of web sites, consumer reports magazine, and...

Great car and very economical

Date of Review:  Nov 27, 2008
The Bottom Line: This is a very good reliable and economical car, and I would rate it on top of its class.
Review: I purchased this car used with 89,000 miles on it about 2 years ago.  It currently has 130,000 miles on.  It gets approximately 32 mpg on average with a combination of city-like and rural driving.  Overall, a very reliable car with essential options...

Getting a bit tired of it

Date of Review:  Dec 15, 2000
The Bottom Line: Makes an excellent used car for not much $$$. Driving fun is a bonus.
Review: No fault of the car, but since I own two of them (97 Sentra GXE manual for me, 98 200SX auto for the wife) I just keep finding myself looking at newer and bigger cars.

I bought the Sentra new and immediately noticed a moaning sound at idle...

Sentra's a Sound Second Car

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2000
Review: My wife and I have owned a Nissan Sentra since we moved out to LI from Manhattan back in '93. We leased our first one then and got a new lease on a '97 model three years later, which we currently have. We were able to park it on the streets for the...

Sentras-The best compact car

Date of Review:  Apr 19, 2000
Review: If there is anything I know, it would be the Nissan Sentra. I have owned three. My first car was a 1990 Nissan Sentra. I was nineteen. I have to admit I didn't shop around, nor did read Car and Driver, so I did not know much about the history of the...

A very reliable and economical used car choice

Date of Review:  Jan 16, 2007
The Bottom Line: I would recommend this car to anyone looking for a reliable and inexpensive option.
Review: I bought my 1997 Sentra GXE because of the recent upswing in gas prices and I needed something for commuting to work. I have been very impressed with the quality of this car. It has 118,000 miles on it and it has had no major repair work. The...

Easily the winner in this class

Date of Review:  May 13, 2002
The Bottom Line: This car is recommended to anyone, it's economical, getting about 40 mpg but it's got features you'd expect from higher end cars, like power windows/locks, and A/C and they're standard.
Review: I purchased my 1997 Nissan Sentra in May of 2001 with 46,600 miles. It's a GXE with a five speed, power windows, locks, mirrors, CD player, and air conditioning. After having this car for two and a half years, and putting about 70,000 miles on it, I...

Mediocre car

Date of Review:  Sep 29, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for a car for one person to drive and not haul the kids around it is a perfect driving car. Also check for deals.
Review: I like the Nissan Sentra XE, I have never been left on the side of the road with an engine malfunction, but sometimes I am prone to flat tires on my front passenger side. I get good gas milleage, which is good becasue I drive it about 150 miles a...
