2008 Nissan Sentra Review:
I bought my Sentra as a commuter car and I'm getting 28 miles per gallon.
Definitely not a flashy car but it gets the job done.

Poor trim assembly from south of the border. They need better a quality assurance system.

I would buy another one. I just wish the assembly workmanship on the plastic trim was better.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Nissan Sentra?
The car rides great, a baby cadillac, good for road trippin
Nice size room inside it feels like a larger car
Seamless automatic transmission (CVT) is very good, but you need to get use to it for sure!
Fairly good on gas but Nissan is not accurate with mileage
Cons: How would you improve 2008 Nissan Sentra?
Put a key lock on the passenger side. Nissan got way to cheap on cutting out needed items like this
Car is not very good looking on the outside
Interior fabric probably will not hold up. After about 6000 miles fabric is creasing and pulling badly
Sloppy Mexican assembly, this is not your daddy's Japanese car
2008 Nissan Sentra Review:
I would recommend this car as a work car or to use around town or even for trips
I would not recommend this car for long term ownership, it is made with cheap materials
and built in Mexico with sloopy assembly. But if you want a car for a short term (3yrs)
and plan to run up mileage, this is a good car for you
