That’s very obviously a Nissan Altima and not a VW Type 181. Please stop clickbaiting.

Does yours have the flat bottom wheel? If not, this Altima must be sportier

As many times as I’ve seen the Altima at the line up I’ve never taken one.

At its first annual service under my watch. This includes a one-time bolt inspection and tightening for all the CF tub-to-subframe fasteners, which is an 8-hour process.

A hose clamp was also found to be loose, causing a slow coolant leak near the front radiator.

:) The base Altima has always been a 4-pot, no?

I had a choice between that and Fusion. Driven a F usion before.

Fusion looks nicer on the outside, Altima is nicer on the inside (mostly due to the simple fact that it’s a newer design)

I don’t plan on finding  that out, but it does have a foot-operated parking brake.

Its a rental cars, so...

Will it do a burnout?

No, it won’t. It’s a CVT and the traction control and stability control cannot be fully disabled.

It does have peppy pick-up for what it is, though. In fact, the engine and gearbox are so responsive that it’s actually somewhat fun to use. Suspension is a bit crashy without providing any sort of  agility, which is unfortunate.

Yes, that’s the Maxima. You know, the car that’s basically an Altima! Err, w ith a V6.
