bought a 08 3.5 se 6 spd manual for my first car and i am more than happy with it love the video

[@GearsAndTech]

Excellent choice. It really is a great platform.

[@discoonelove]

Same i live in Los Angeles this car is perfect 👌 I only use 6 gear ⚙ when I drive to Tijuana once a month

[@VCX3WSG]

Great choice I’m trying to find a blue3.5 2010 Altima I currently own an06 blue 4 door sedan love it but they didnt create coupes till 2008

Whoever had that car before you definitely was on meth while ordering parts

[@guillermoaguirret]

My first car ever is a 2012 altima coupe SR 3.5 V6 with the 6ManualTransmission which is D-A bargain of the world! Love it! That one and the G35 are my absolute favorites. Thanks nissan!

Obviously youve never owned one . Mine looks like its been kicked to shit but the car runs so well you dont even remember what it looks like until you get out . Its a wonderful fun car . And you cant really beat the price . Honestly . Thats all the guy was trying to say .

Its hard to hate on this car. Its really a great car that can be got for a cheap cheap price still

I own a loaded CVT model... I love it

[@GearsAndTech]

A lot to love

[@ToneysReviews]

I actually own the first ever tranny swapped Altima Coupe. Unfortunately, my car is in horrible conditions atm. I left it with a family member and somehow they allowed water to get inside of it. All seats are peeling, dash is trashed, and etc. It'd be a lot to get her back up to shape, but I am thinking about stripping her on camera. She currently can do 0-60 in 4.9 without the turbo installed.

[@GearsAndTech]

thats very impressive

[@thekadoosh8926]

2.5 or 3.5?

[@GearsAndTech]

To do those kind of numbers I would have to be 3.5

[@ToneysReviews]

@@thekadoosh8926 It is a 3.5. I got it back to my house about a week ago and the entire inside is full of mold/rust. I am praying that when I pull back the carpet that there isn't rust on the floor pan. If so, my car maybe dead. It is also not starting, so there is some type of electrical issue.

[@rebeccaa9257]

I've been an eyeing a 2008 for a while and this video just convinced me to go for it. EDIT: I didn’t go for it. I read too much about them having too many problems. I ended getting a 2005 Honda accord.

[@AltimaV6SportsCar]

In where I live, the fastest car to buy with mint condition for under $5,000 is a V6 Altima.

[@GearsAndTech]

It's like that a lot of places. Great car!

[@robwilson2324]

Modified parts aren't as available as the G35 & or G37. You can still modify it as i did my 2011 Altima Coupe SR.

[@GearsAndTech]

True, but many of the parts are interchangeable. Especially if you're looking at engine parts

Just bought a 2009 Altima coupe 135k miles, what should I do to make it last 3000000 miles?

[@Upakothuru12]

How many miles should a used Nissan coupe have and still be a safe bet for me to buy

[@GearsAndTech]

Anything under 200k miles should be good The 3.5 is a great engine. But if it's neglected it will suffer issues

[@officebusiness5587]

[@GearsAndTech]

It's a good car

[@ivanarizmendi2011]

im starting to work on my nissan altima 3.5 sr but i dont know where to start, any suggestions?

[@GearsAndTech]

Always start with basic maintenance. If you don't know the plugs, oil, filters history then start there Then move onto tuning

[@ivanarizmendi2011]

@@GearsAndTech thanks man I appreciate it

[@dominickbrizendine]

Start with basic routine maintenance like oil change, spark plugs, brakes/tires, etc. make sure all the mechanics are running solid yk. Then go to engine/transmission tuning. You don't want to tune the engine all the way up without any work to the trans. Upgrade your air intake and forge the internals of the engine that will make it handle more HP, air induction, etc. from there if you want to do anything crazy to it, upgrade the tires/brakes/suspension, go FBO (full bolt on) and then you will be pretty close if not already able to put a supercharger/turbo/procharger on it

[@TheREALOC1972]

Idk about underrated, I see ALOT of them out here in Northwest Arizona/Vegas area. The hot thing out here now is taking the mid 90's and early 2000's American Subcompacts and building them into tuners because they are so cheap, I just bought a 2000 2 Door Grand Am for my soon to be 12 year grandson's first car that were going to build into a tuner ish style build. I got it as part of package/moving deal along with a 1976 Ford Ranchero that I was wanting, at first I didn't really want the Grand-Am but they threw me a price for both that I couldn't say no to, the Grand-Am is a running driving car and the Ranchero is more of a year-year and a half project car, So I'll drive the Grand-Am while I finish the Ranchero and then park it and start it working on the Grand-Am.

[@GearsAndTech]

Sounds like a blast It's funny, my friend had a grand am and so did my daughter. I thought it was cool in the 90s the first time

[@TheREALOC1972]

@@GearsAndTech They are good cars, atleast for a first car but were going to fix it up a little better than just a first car. There's enough of them still out there we'll be able to take parts and pieces we want from different years and different options to make it look good.

[@vaughngraves6723]

That car had great potential... and then you went and made it look like an Ali Express car parts ad.

[@natevsdawrld]

I love Altima coupes but those transmissions aren’t it literally boutta be on my 3rd one as we speak

[@GearsAndTech]

really? This one has driven a LONG way on its first transmission. If we talk about the CVT then Im with you!

[@dominickbrizendine]

Fr I've heard so many bad stories about the CVT's but I got a 07 2.5 Altima as my 2nd car. I got it really low bc of the mileage and I didn't mind the mileage bc I only needed something short term to get to work and what not and was going to buy something new when I started my new job. I was 18 and didn't know how actually important it was to keep up on routine maintenance. My girl and I were having to live in it at the time so we were on the move 24/7 making money and trying to not solicit in the same spot for too long. Put 15k miles on it in 3 months maybe 4 and only changed the oil once, I put oil one other time but didn't drain it or change the filter, it already had 197k miles when I got it and I heard countless stories about the cvt in them blowing before 100k. Needless to say it shouldve been fucked by that point but surprisingly it was the one of the most mechanically sound vehicles Ive ever had. Never had a single problem out of it and would likely still have it if I hadn't traded it for an extended length for expedition worth at least 5k more than the Altima

[@majerpwnage1]

I'm really new to performance upgrades and mods. I have an 08 Altima 3.5SL automatic CVT and 140k miles on it. Currently looking at a new exhaust, cold air intake, tune, and maybe a turbo charge. I've been warned about the engine with the miles i have on it and about the CVT if i'm gonna turbo it. What should I do to make my car as safe as possible while being able to do these upgrades?

[@supercereal3582]

Why are 2 door cars more expensive to insure?

[@GearsAndTech]

People drive 2 door cars like they are race cars. So statistically they get in higher rates of accidents. That makes them dangerous, so they are in a higher insurance bracket
