... albeit much more economical - 2006 Nissan Sentra 1.8S. This 9-5 actually replaced our previous 2001 Sentra just 3 months ago.
The primary reasons for going back to Sentra:
- abundant and cheap parts - both new and used. 2006+ 9-5 used parts are still quite pricey.
- much better mpg: 30 (regular gas) in Sentra vs 21 (premium gas) in 9-5
- better reliability: our 2001 Sentra required nothing but oil and brakes in 2 years of ownership - and this is being 11 years old. OTOH the 2006 required nothing in 3 months of ownership either. Our 2000 9-5 keeps me constantly busy - but it has 225k now.
- ease of repair. Everything is so much more accesible under the hood with lots of empty space.
