Hello,
Can I ask for opinions about Altima reliability? I am thinking about buying a used '96 Altima GXE with 96,000 miles on it. I had a look at it today and overall it looked fine. Gear shift (automatic) was smooth, tranny fluid color is bright red, brakes are fine, and acceleration was good. Some rust on the body but manageable.
I am planning to drive this car about 3 or 4 more years if I buy it. What are the common problems does Altima show as it gets older? (before reaching 140,000 miles?) What kinds of parts do I have to replace if I decide to buy this car? The seller said that battery was replaced several months ago and the Altima did not have any 100,000 miles maintenance schedule checkup yet.
The seller insists on having definitely at least $2500 but I am not so sure this is a good price... Mechanically the car looked nice but the interior was not clean at all.
Thank you in advance.
