2006 Nissan Altima 3.5 SL Summary
The most upscale trim in the lineup, the 2006 Nissan Altima 3.5 SL rivals the slightly larger Maxima in terms of standard features and power, all at a lower price point. With a 250-hp, 3.5-liter DOHC V6 and 5-speed manumatic transmission, the 2006 Altima 3.5 SL adds 4-wheel ABS brakes, xenon headlights, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, automatic climate control, a sunroof, CD changer, and heated leather seats. This is in addition to a power driver's seat, full power features, wheel-mounted audio and cruise controls, a trip computer, security system, and tilt and telescopic steering.
Dual front airbags are standard, with an option to add side impact bags for both rows. Conveniences such as a cargo net, seatback pockets, storage consoles, a power outlet, and cupholders are family-oriented. Since it's well-outfitted, there are few options, but you can add a navigation system, traction control, and speed-sensing wipers. New this year is optional satellite radio. Pickup is satisfying on the 2006 Altima 3.5 SL, and drivers also like the interior comfort, standard features, exterior styling, and 4 and 5-star crash ratings. There are some complaints about the interior ergonomics and the placement of the front armrest.
