My first brand-new car! I bought this in December of 1992 when the dealership was desperate to get rid of the 1992 models. The Altima came out in 1993, in fact those still said "Stanza ALTIMA" on them. I got one that was nearly stripped of features, and had them add on a factory air conditioner. (This IS Texas, after all!) Lasted into 2000 until it developed a transmission problem that cost more to repair than the car was worth. Fixable, and predictable problem (the throwout bearing for the manual transmission wore out) so I'd say it was the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned.
