Worst car

Huh.  That was my first car and I loved it.  Of course, that was in 1995. The problem is that it's old and stuff keeps breaking. It must've been masterliness back in the day. My dad has the new Altima and it's great.

Interesting is that Nissan has improved their cars such that today's Altima is a lot like (and maybe even better than) the Maxima of the mid 90s, and probably today's Sentra is like the old Altima.  Sounds like your car is starting to exceed the annoyance threshold - for me, if I have to visit the shop that many times, it's time to get a another car (just happened with my wife's old Chevy Prism, now she has a Subaru Forrester - vast improvement!  )

also slight correction:  I probably was driving a '94 Altima because I had it all of senior year, but they prob. didn't change too much from what you have.

Our friends used to have one & one time they stopped at traffic lights & were seen by some of their mates, who then proceeded to walk over, tip the Reliant on its side & walk away again.

I absolutely HATE Volkswagen Bugs.  Whenever I ride in the back of one, I hit my head on the side (which I don't even want to know what happens if the car gets hit on the side) and sitting in the front ain't too fun either.

(NOTE:  Never drove in it, but hate every time I ride in one.)

Anything that gets under 15 mpg is crap, IMO. Including Ferraris and McLarens (though they do go awful fast).

Ah yes, but your wife owns you and she likes small things... 

Dean... does that mean you have a small..?.

Yeah..but a Robin is a much better car than a PINK Nissan Micra soft top. elllllllll

Tiny cars that exist are: Fiat 500, VW Lupo, Smart, Peugeot 107/Toyota Aygo/Citroen C1, Fiat Seicento, Reliant Robin (ideal for bank robberies ), BMW Z3 (too fast to be a mini car, and of course a Mini (legendary motor).

They only sell Lada's in Russia now UK stopped selling them in 1997.
