Pros: Reliable; great standard transmission; good fuel economy
Cons: Road and wind noise; the engine feels like it might struggle with an automatic transmission
The Bottom Line: Great car for you parents looking for something cheap and reliable for the kids to drive.
Generally, I believe it's just bad form to write about a car after a test drive. After all, it's hard to get to know a vehicle well after only spending a bit of time with it. However, I found myself in a 2000 Nissan Sentra for a couple of days as a ...

Pros: Grown up styling and feel. Tenacious handling for its class, jewel of an engine in the SE model.
Cons: SE suspension a little too sporty for some, "economy car" touches here and there.
Ah, the life of a student. Even though my college years are through, my medical school experiences have taught me that the thriftiness that comes along with being a student is still alive and well. We drive our cars that we bought used...

Pros: Excellent performance, reliability, economical, good gas mileage

Pros: Value, comfort, power, quality, reliability
Cons: Lack of rear seat room, small trunk, generic looks, poor resale value
The Bottom Line: Nissan produced a winner with its completely redesigned 2000 Sentra. This car has a lot to offer.
I bought my 2000 Nissan Sentra GXE in March of 2000, right as the redesigned model was introduced. I have not regretted my purchase once since then. This car has served its purpose beautifully.
When looking for a car, I shopped most of the...

Pros: Contemporary looks, all-aluminum engine, high-quality throughout, PRICE
Cons: Optional engine could use a hp boost, looks a bit bland
I've never really been fond of Nissan Sentras. They were cheap little basic
transportation cars, and they made no bones about it. Usually bland and boxy looking, they were almost the epitome of "economy". Until now.....After

Pros: Unheard-of power in this price class, outstanding handling and road control
Cons: Uncomfortable ride, weak stereo
I'll be the first to admit that Nissan isn't my first choice for a car to swoon over. Not like I have anything against the fine motor corporation, nor do I own any sort of window dressing with Calvin besmirching the Nissan logo. I've just never had any...

Pros: Reliable, Fun to Drive
Cons: Car windows seem to fog very easy, Not great looking.
This is a review of the 1996 Nissan Sentra. I wrote it before different years were put into different sections, and it was automatically put in the 2000 Sentra section.
I agree, this is a great car; but it is not very good looking. If...

Pros: Lots of extras for the price, drives well, Japanese reliability
Cons: A little noisy on the highway
Last week, I was sad when our 17 year old Mazda RX-7 failed emissions because it needed a rebuilt carburetor. We decided that it was time to get a new car.
I did a lot of research before deciding to buy a new car. I looked at most foreign...

Pros: looks, ride, gas mileage
Cons: brakes feel spongy
I first noticed the 2000 Sentra on a Nissan tv add. I really like the way that Nissan styled this car. I went to a dealer right away and test drove a Sentra GXE. It really has a peppy engine. I was surprised by how well the car rode. I went from A...

Pros: reliable, great gas mileage.
Cons: not very roomy
We owned a 1987 Nissan Sentra Coupe that just kept on going, and going and going. We paid $4,000 for it in 1991, with 37,000 and by the time it finally kicked the bucket last year it had 148K on it. Until the last two months we owned the car we had no...

Pros: This car keeps going. Basic is the BEST.
Cons: Sagging doors.
The Bottom Line: Very good gas mileage,styling that is not horrible but still good looking for today. It does the job with the least amount of garage time.
My family has a 1988 Sentra which we bought some odd 13 years ago in Oregon. (We also have an 1990 Axxess too) The Sentra has lasted years of torture, and has maintained its composure inside out. Cold winters have left freezing water on the paint for...

Pros: held up for the long haul.//////
Cons: safety considerations...light weight car
I had a 1989 Nissan Sentra. It was a COMPLETE opposite of a lemon. It was the greatest car. It got excellent EXCELLENT gas mileage. We'd fill up once driving 1-5 from Sacramento to San Diego.
I think 1989 was a good year for this car-if you...

I got my Michigan driver’s license on July 17, 2000 - the same day as my 16th birthday. Several days after that, my parents and I went looking for a car for me. I looked at both new and used cars, but finally realized that a new car was the only option...

Pros: seats (SE model + sport package), performance, economy, price
Cons: small back seat (but hey it's a compact car!), slight torque steer
I am the happy owner of a 1991 Nissan Sentra SE-R. I am the second owner and am not surprised in the least that my car won Car and Driver's 10 best for every year it was made (91-94). The SE-R made several improvements over the other Sentra models such...
