The 2000 Nissan Altima for buyers
No 2000 Nissan Altima is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. Before you buy the 2000 Nissan Altima, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
Recalls and complaints
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Owners filed 160 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine and engine cooling, electrical system and vehicle speed control; have those parts checked.
What the specs mean
Its powertrain is the 2.4L 4-cylinder with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Its combined rating is 9.8 L/100 km, which means roughly 29 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, driving 100 km costs about $15.19, and a 300 km weekend about $45.57. The EPA estimates US$2,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Who it is for
It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Living with the Altima
It is a straightforward car to drive, park and live with. In plain terms, its 396 litres of luggage space hold about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
Drive it on your own roads
If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. Rent first, buy later: a week with the Altima answers the big questions. A week with the Altima answers more than any brochure.
Which one to look for
Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it.
The cost of driving it
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $15.19 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $151.90 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,800 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
One more step
