  • thinking about getting this whip for my first car not sure tho

  • altima over mustang any day... bc unless you live where its sunny all year round... in the real world where it snows your mustang will be in a ditch

  • 175hp 4cyl 32MPG highway Altima coupe for 23,600

    or

    305hp V6 31MPG Highway Mustang coupe for 22,310

    Yeah....

  • @NoxNoctisUmbra Good luck finding a 2011 mustang for $22,310... MAYBE you'll find one for +10 Grand

  • @YungTigreDaKing V6 is 22. And it's substantially faster then this... SUBSTANTIALLY. Oh, I have an altima and love it so not hating.  Just saying that your info is flawed.

  • @NoxNoctisUmbra the mustang wins until you pay the insurance bill

  • better than a civic anyday

  • I just leased the new 2012 coupe, can't wait to get it (special ordered)

  • it does sound good for a 4 cylinder but that shit is slow as fuck lol

  • @jmcle884 so what do you drive then buddy? Let's hear it

  • CVT is was better at harnessing maximum engine power than a conventional gearbox. Especially with nissan's electronic control. The older ones sounded like they were slipping because they were designed like snowmobile clutches. The real drawbacks to the CVT are the horribly un-enthusiast sound it makes, the potential for belt slippage and they can only handle a few torques, HP is what they do best which is why the Altima is low(ish) on torques. The CVT is more modern. But its less fun.

  • i'm going to be honest i was in orlando this week and had a 2.5 altima as a rental car and i think its the worst sounding car i have ever heard, i don't know if it was the perticular car i was driving or all altima's in general but it was bad

  • CVT tranmission?

    

  • And that's why I drive an Si..

  • @heartgrenade04 That's not exactly a big upgrade...

  • @heartgrenade04 I am not sure what gets me off more, beating Si's or Dodge Rams.

  • Nice, Ya know, I actually never knew they had a coupe version until Spring..(wasnt in the market for a car and just never paid attention until it caught my eye when I parked next to a red one.)

    I bought a black '10 Altima Coupe a few months ago and love it.

  • I just bought the 2.5 a few monthes ago and it out performs alot of v6 cars stock vs stock and has cool new looks im very happy with it myself and no-one who didnt already know would guess its a four cylinder it sounds great...and no u never need the key only need the remote on you but if the batt runs out you put the remote in a little port then push button as usual

  • I just bought the 2.5 a few monthes ago and it out performs alot of v6 cars stock vs stock and has cool new looks im very happy with it myself and no-one who didnt already know would guess its a four cylinder it sounds great

  • question so you never need to use your actually key to start the car/drive.

  • man..It would be faster with a AUTO 4sp

    CVT sucks

  • @chivasrocks not its slower with a 4spd...and it lacks power. the CVT is kinda junk for sport drivers, but it allows the car to get maximum power.

  • @v1per808 too bad theres a gov limiter to altima. I cant pass 120 on my new altima an my old EX civic with stock 127 HP engine can hit well 127 MPH flat or 132 MPH lite down hill. If there wasnt that limiter i woulda pull over 140 MPH cuz i manage to do 144 MPH on 97 Maxima with lite tune. For my altima i do plan on building a good MPG type car an see how much i can pull out of it. So far i avg 510 miles in 18 gallon mark thats avg 28 MPG c/h. hope JP car bring back with FR sports car soon

  • @truehunter yea, well i want nissan to make a new SE-R Altima, cause the old one was pretty sick.

  • @truehunter dude has a death wish. You also don't care how much your insurance goes up or how expensive your ticket is. You aren't on the autobahn. I don't buy a car based on how far over 120mph it can go.

  • @jeffhanson1 , there are tracks i use to go to. If you going to spend on a car you wanted the way it should be. Its as you say in part, regardless of the price but if you buy a Blu ray Drive/Rom that claim to run 8x speed but you get 4x speed your telling me your still happy. If you buy a nice refrigerator to keep your beer cold an claim it will make it cold but its still warm ?? its bagging for the buck regardless. If anything is downgraded they should reduce the price.

  • i honestly dont know if the cvt transmission is any better but i still cant get used to seeing the tach act like that....

  • what a stupid vid sado!

  • lol

  • what I love is that when you fart in the altima there is a button on the steering wheel that sucks it out through the seats to the outside

  • its called rolling down the window

  • whats the song called??? Nissan Altima is awesome. People who talk shit don't know anything. It's a very reliable car, japanese, CVT engines are good. When it gets old past 10 years it will be amazing because in regular shifting cars they tend to wear down after 10+ years. I love that engine sound. So RACE CAR ee

    4 cylinder is good if your aiming for fuel economy. Nowadays gas prices are like reaching back to $3 a gallon again it's ridiculous.

    I LOVE THE PUSH BUTTON START IT SO HIGH TECH

  • you mean cvt transmission? and if you're a real car guy you'd get the 5 speed or for the 3.5 get the 6mt.

  • shouldda got the 3.5... sound so much nicer and goes faster

  • the 3.5?

    why not just get a 350z

  • that works too

  • If you need a cheaper, softer, family sedan with low maintenance costs, low insurance, and low fuel consumption. If living up north also it is easier to drive on snow (FWD).

    I can go on with reasons all day. The 350z is amazing but you're comparing apples or oranges here my friend. You can't just replace this car with a 350z, even though I prefer the 350z (actually the 370z) myself.

  • I agree with you on the fwd part because I live up north and use fwd in the winters, but this isn't the family sedan its a coupe thats why I was saying to go with a 350z instead of the 3.5 version of this coupe

  • Ahh yes my bad. Well some other things I'm sure still follow like maintenance, fuel, and insurance costs. Sadly the insurance goes up pretty much for every horsepower you have.

  • i would totally buy the 370z but it doesn't have a backseat. :(

  • some dumb asstried to race me with one of these last night on the highway. My 9-3 ate him up like nothing. it was an azn dude and he put dual fart cannons on it.

  • of course cause its turbo right?

  • exactly my point. the dumb ass had the 2.5l cvt and dual fart cannons on it...I mean how much more stupid can you get. Its so sad how ppl take a eco car and do that to it. i personally like how they look, but i would only get the 3.5l i cant stand cvt, can you imagine what it sounds like with dual fart cannons going down the highway stuck at 6500 rpm..He was gay and i shut him up.

  • what the fuck, you don't know what fart cars sound like if you think this car is one. i one the sedan version, and this is the least bad 4 cylinder i've ever heard. i'm not saying its as sweet sounding as the v6, but it does sound damn good for a 4 cylinder. and those "dual fart cannons" came standard to help improve perfomance. and this is not and eco car. if it was it would've come with the 1.8 liter on the cube. its for people that want better than most fuel economy with decent performance.

  • Are you retarded? did you even read what i said? I said he had Fart cannons on his car, they werent stock dumb ass. As in he out them on himself via muffler shop. the 2.5 cvt is nissan's eco version of the car dumb shit. they gave you the 3.5l 6 spd for performance...

  • no, they come standard.

  • Dang bro ,thats slow. I spanked that Altima 2.5 in my Taurus few days ago.

  • ahhhh, the buzz of a 4 banger :)

  • i dont like the A/T cars... but the car sounds good

  • nice sound mixing. I like the fadein/out of the tracks at just the right time.

  • WOOH I GOT MINE TODAY!

  • Even with CVT you can drive it in a "simulated" standard mode, and to say the least it's a blast. CVT is piss poor on the pickup but using the standard fixes that.

  • many road tests have proven using the CVT and the simulated manual mode give same performance

    and how is pick up poor with the CVT?? as soon as you step on the gas, the rpm shoots up and dont go down unless you loose up or let go of the gas

  • Nice car man! I just got a 2008 Altima Coupe 2.5 in silver. I made a video of it, check out my youtube page.

  • I heard your one of the ugliest people on earth.

  • The dashboard thing is all just because of the digital camera... I've taken pics of mine's interior and it does that too, depending on light, itll look blue or the white it really is. (though mine is manual :) )

  • I have the 2.5 with 20s and i love it

  • how did you get the Blue Lighting on your Dash, instead of white lettering? i would like that for my 07 but it's hard to find things online for these cars.

  • I have a 3.5se and I can't feel any kind of shifting. However I do feel the jolt but I love it, it's that massive amount of torque letting me know it's going fast. :)

  • @Ranga14 Don't lie. It's that horse in the trunk trying to get out.

  • how did color of the gauges change? At first it had a blue-ish background but in the second part of the vid the background was all black

  • I just bought a 2008 2.5 S last week. It's black with black leather seats and sunroof. I love taking it to the highway. The trasnmission shifts as smooth as silk. It's hard to believe it's only a 4 cylinder.

  • as the proud of of a 2.5 and having driven both cars. i believe that the 2.5 handles better and isnt as nose heavy as the 3.5 granted i wish i had the 6 for performance but i got the injen intake and nismo exhaust and it pulls pretty good. not the fastest but decent and ive beaten SRT-4s and civic si's with the intake alone. so i believe credit is due to the 2.5 as well as the 3.5.

  • Sis I can believe, since I've beaten one. But SRT-4s? Yeah okay. An N/A QR25DE is not that fast lol. I should know, I have one in my car.

  • @DJNastie I find it hard to believe a 2.5 can beat an SRT-4 and even a Civic Si. Si's have a 100-200 lbs of savings on you, plus another 20+ hp. SRT-4 (Neon?) weigh 300 lbs less than your 2.5 Coupe, PLUS 50-60+ more hp. They may have not been flooring it, or were possibly wondering why this coupe is trying to go so fast on a Sunday. ;)

  • what is on that center display below the speedometer? looks like a light bar that does something. can anyone fill me in?

  • its for MPG it kinda fun to look at.

  • Vboi, If its a CVT shifting should be smooth.

  • wat kits do you recommend for it???

    i just got an altima today

  • Lol I like how everyone with the new altima coupes with CVT always mentions CVT as if it was some high tech thing when in fact a manual would still own all

  • its a 2.5 dont expect it to be fast but its not that bad for a 4 cylinder

  • thats true i got me a greddy exhaust i got to get it installed

  • ive personally drove the 2.5 and i would rather go in debt and buy the v6 because i was surprised by the lack of performance and sound. it should atleast have better sounds. but this one sounds quite nice... the sedan sucks though. idk.

  • its slow

  • really slow

  • i got 8.5

  • @Ridinbenz888 You forgot driven 10x more by every racerboy and their grandma. Boring.

  • CVT= gaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy

  • no it helps performance

  • It may help performance but it doesnt help the fun level. 6 speed manual= FUN. CVT= Lawn mower on crack.

  • you wrong count again, but use a stopwatcher!!!

  • It's a stopwatch, not stopwatchER. Go read any professional review of the '07-'08 Altima. The 4cyl does 0-60 in 7.5 seconds while the V6 does it in about 6.

  • 0-60 in about 9 seconds!!!

  • First your guages were bluish then they were later white were you able to change the colors?

  • does the 2.5S come with (1) steering wheel audio controls (2) cruise control (3) auxilary port for plugging in mp3 players?

  • 1) The steering wheel audio controls come as part of a package on the 2.5 S. It is not standard equipment. (2) Cruise control is standard w/ CVT models. (3) Audio jack is standard as well.

  • Yes it does. Mine has all that.

  • You blocked the speed gauge i couldn't see when u started.

  • you can change the color outside the spedometer?

  • sounds great for a 4 cyl engine

  • use the kickdown switch and your rpms will go up faster=quicker.

  • what's the kickdown switch?

  • 7.3 is not slow at all for a 175 hp coupe. It's all relative and this 4 cyl coupe is nice for the $.

  • I modded my 2.5s with an Injen Intake system and the car can go from 0-60mph in 7.3 seconds on CVT mode. That really isn't band plus I can't afford the V6 so...

  • The V6 is $3000-$4000 more expensive than the I4. You can mod the 2.5S and make it become faster than the V6 by adding an after market intake system, chip, and turbos...

  • why the hell would you put turbos? on a car like this. just get the v-6 and be done with it. I'm sure turbos, intake and a chip would be more than $4000.

  • i have an I4 and i would never do that in my life... sure an intake but thats it.. A TURBO, (if it will ever be made will definatly cost more then 2 grand) and u wont get 100 HP from a turbo...

  • well u can get a lot more horsepower from a turbo, but they would cost more than just spendin the extra cash on the v6. Still its a nice car

  • how much would all that cost i got a 09' Coupe

  • no point of a coupe 2.5 THEYRE COUPES THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO GO FASTER THAN THAT GET 3.5!!!!!

  • A coupe version of a sedan is just that. Nissan did go a step further in making the outside of the coupe share nothing with the sedan, but the power plants are always the same. nissan has the most powerful four cylinder in the market, the 2.5 litre is vvery impressive, go test drive one and find out

  • haha i kno that i used to own a 2003 2.5 theyre quick for a family sedan....but for a coupe....u gotta have a little more kick than just a 2.5

  • actually subaru and mistubishi make the most powerfull 4 cylinder engines with the evo and sti

  • i was refering to non-turbo engines

  • nice video editing.. that's one hell of a hill u are climbing

  • i love the gauges they are so awsome when they light up

  • wuts the point of getting the coupe with only the 2.5 engine...no offense but thats kinda pointless....the coupe is made to go fast with the 3.5 engine its not goin anywhere with that engine

  • sry but my 3.5's got way more kik than that..

  • obv. lol

  • well.. im talking about the sedan lol.

  • guys can u tell me what song is this?

  • i gust got a coupe 3.5 whit the full package and i put some rims on it and nitro were u live so we can race

  • i like the car and the song. whats the name of it?

  • lol electric 6

  • cuz cars werent made to rev like a weed wacker it ruins the whole point of floorin it

  • Maybe, if it's the sound of the engine when you floor it, but a CVT will give you more power when you need it without putting more stress on the engine/transmission.

  • Why is cvt so stupid?

  • Sexy sexy. These cars are great! I've got a red 2.5S with the CVT, and it shifts incredibly smooth. Love it!

  • Yesur. It is a CVT. Much better transmission than I would have expected.

  • I see. How do you "rev it up" does it have a neutral position?

    Is it more efficient than a manual?

  • It would be better to compare the transmission to a normal automatic. There is no substitute for a manual transmission IMO. The car does have a neutral position, yes. It actually has a manumatic option so that you can "fake" shift gears. I don't really get it since the car is basically one gear that runs on an expanding or contracting belt.

  • even thought its a cvt it actually has 6 gear ratios that the car shifts. it does it so smoothly its hard to detect. when u switch it in manumatic mode then ur able to control the 6 gear ratios.

  • the car doesnt have 6 gears that it shifts in auto mode. the 6 ratios are only used when u go into shift mode

  • even tho it is very hard to detect indeed there are six gear ratios that are used in auto mode. i have a 2007 altima 2.5. u can feel it. it doesnt shift like a regular automatic but u can feel when the ratios change and they are equivelant to the 6 gear ratios that are used in shift mode. it is very hard to detect but after driving one for a while im sure u'll agree

  • search cvt transmission anywhere online and see what it says

  • i know what a cvt transmission is. go an 2.5 altima with the transmission and tell me if u'll agree or not.

  • actually, i have driven the new 2.5 altima and i gotta say im stickin to my original opinion

  • well driving it a couple times and driving it every day is a diff story so im sticking to my story as well.

  • you cant really hear it revving to the rev limit of the gear youre on so would you have to solely look at the tachometer to know when to change gears?

  • does it have CVT or are you just REALLY hot with your left foot?

  • It said it was a 2.5 with CVT at the start.

  • Sorry i never loked that intensly

  • Mcheddadi got me to come here... phones are illegal, camcorders.. ALL GOOD

  • I just got my altima coupe on the 30th of july i got the radiant silver and its the 2.5 the funny thing is that under full acceleration it pulls like a v6 and it sounds amazing!

  • Sounds nice, I like how the muffler isn't too big because that makes a bad sound on 4-cylinders.

  • Man that's an awesome clip you made, 5 stars for the production, and another 5 stars for the car!

  • Gotta love it! Sounds awesome for a 4 cyl. Faster than average
