From the web....."Automakers use a variety of model designations to denote plain or fancy versions, and there's no rhyme or reason behind the letters and numbers. One company's S model, for example, may be a direct rival for another's SE, LE or LX model. They're just another way of saying Good, Better, Best."

If you are looking at new, go to the Nissan website and look what is available for each designation. The "S" will be the base package.

I purchased a Altima claiming a great deal but only one car he would sell at that price. NO lettering on rear so reading this it is a base mode. Not so fast, car has smart key (can start the car from inside), electric adjustable front seat, chrome interior and exterior, 2 device inputs in rear, rear camera, came with complete floor custom mats, and cruise control . So what is it?
