In this video I give a full tour and test drive of a 2004 Nissan Altima 3.5 SE. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration as well as a in depth test drive A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

Don't get me wrong I enjoy all your videos Kyle and I have for years now but I have to say these kind of test drives are my favorite! Wish you would do more like these in the future. I know you do test drives on new vehicles but I kinda like how these videos were on different year models and stuff. Anyway, keep up the great work Kyle!
I got a 02 3.5L Altima as my first car, The engine on this thing is beastly

well this is definitly a very nice car :) your videos are the best man !
Nice review up to this year! :)
For a family sedan from 2004, the Altima had a pretty sick V6 engine
Just sold mine. Was a great car!!
I love how you say after introducing the car, " this is a new lot vehicle" before describing anything else about it.
Kyle, Did you know that once the car is unlocked, and you press and hold the unlock button on the remote the 2 front windows will roll down. Great vids keep up the good work, I have learned alot and look forward to many more great vids
I Love This Guy NOHOMO He Makes You Want The Car He's IN!
I had this car 🚘 n metallic blue. Loved it, never had to many problems traded it in for a brand new maxima but still thought about this one: it was fun to drive.,
good video
pretty decent car for a nissan! love ur test driving videos man! 5 stars as always! i mean thumbs up haha my only complaint, and i dunno if this makes sense to you guys but i hate how on alot of japnese cars the dashes are so HUGE
I'm about to see this car tomorrow. It's all black 2003 with 100k miles. Excited to be honest I really like it.

these Altima's were a real success for Nissan. the only complaint here really is the interior it's pretty cheap. and is it me or did the engine almost go dead?

This is very great because I am going to be taking a road test exam in a training vehicle in a 2004 Nissan Altima. I need to know where the windshield wipers button, the turn signals buttons, headlights buttons and defrost buttons are located at.
i like how first person view is you holding the camera hahaha
Very Nice Kyle - Chad
Speaking as the owner of a 3.5 is a pretty good rig. For some reason the last thousand miles have been problematic (161 thousand currently) so basic house cleaning such as an overdue tranny flush, brakes, tie rods, and some problems the radiator and TPS (which means you have to replace the entire throttle body). Its a really solid car, but its getting up there and years and milage. I'd try find an Altima thats a bit newer if you have the resources but the 02 is still a good car
I want this!!
2007 was the first year for the CVT.
The stock stereo systems on these were underrated
Sounds like it has a wheel bearing issue.
@TheAndrey Like 6.5 ish to 7 seconds. Depending on what year altima you get and what transmission.
i have a altima 3.5 2004 ..with 103k ...been a good car ..just replaced 3 sensors $600 ...then steering pump ..nothing mayor ..but now i just got 2010 maxima sv :)
if i'm not mistaken, these came with manual shiftability (or sport) mode. either that or he was gunning it.
I love mine!
Hey kyle, i am planning on etiher purchasing a 2004 Acura TSX or a RSX type S, could you please conduct a review of one those two, i want to know what you think of them.
sweet, so hows the other alimta doing with the blown motor?
does the side moldings fall off on this car because on my moms 2005 it happens a lot
How is the rod noise in the vehicle while driving at higher speeds (40mph+)
I know this seems like a stupid question, but how dod he get the car over 3k rpm? I thought that car was auto, did he have the tiptronic? My dad just brought an 05 model ( 3.5 SE ) so I am just wondering!
well this is definitly a very nice car :)
at minimal throttle (but not at idle position) the transmission will shift very low (probably around 1250-1500 rpm depending on the car) and at full throttle it will shift at redline or where ever the optimum shift point (based on the powerband of the engine) may be at full throttle. everything else will be relative to this, for example at 50% throttle the transmission will shift roughly halfway between idle and redline. (this is a very rough explanation, lots of factors go into shift timing)
@occckid123 in That Altima ? V6 or i-4 ?
We have a 05 Altima 3.5 SE. its pretty quick how much hp/tq do they have?
Guys what do u think the 2002 altimas V6 3.5, se. 5 sod. Are problemetic as the 2.5. 4 cylinders
@saabkyle04 you chould drive one of these with a 5 speed. so much fun for an altima!
do you guys have a website? because i cant find it
I like Nissan Altima

Get the maxima or altima(v6). they both have the vq35de! one of the best v6's in the world. Nissan has been on the wards top ten for years with that! If i were you i would get the 03 maxima though. i think that was the best maxima model out there! otherwise the altima 3.5 is great! :)
2:21 Honda and Acura Lower Chime
I wish I had an Altima SE-R 6 Speed Cab you do an Sentra SE-R Spec V?
@bertorod90 i am 6'4 and i just bought a 2004 altima last week, it fits perfectly and u can be proud of that joint dawg lol its makes u feel like u one of the ballers in town, but try put some rims but not heavy ones
6:48 I like that song
plz do an review and test drive on the 2003 nissan maxima gle
4:11 I like that song
Kyle is this a new lot vehicle?
@jsnevels2 It's cool, I didn't go through all of my mags. I have entire wall of them LOL. I just listed the stats from the mags I had in front of me. Either way, for a V6 family sedan, these cars are really quick anyway you look at it. Especially for the money. Thanks for the extra stats... I was wondering what the 02-06' altima 2.5s did in the 1/4. My G/F has an 03' Sentra SE-R (Auto) which is 300 LBS lighter w/the same motor and tranny. Now we can estimate what her car does in the 1/4.
Can u please do a test for a 02-03 maxima with the 3.5 engine
***** can you test drive a 2006 chevy malibu
Anybody know what song was on the radio from about 4:15-4:30?
What was the song playing from 6:49-7:10??? I can't for the life of me remember what it was called!!
FYI - I own an 2002 Altima and it has 300,000 miles - runs perfectly and only has a replaced engine due to a bad accident 100k miles ago haha
@jsnevels2 mine is a i-4. i think it was the 190hp accord. looked 2 b fully loaded with leather and the nice wheels. not sure on that though,,
@jsnevels2 Yeah, that sounds about right. It's not bad for a stock 4-banger with an automatic...It's a torquey little thing, it rarely needs to downshift for extra power, even going up hills, unless you get on it.
hey saabkyle would you mind drive a 04 Chevrolet impala pretty please
Hey Kyle you should test drive the 06 Chevrolet malibu LS please
Uploaded on my bday
@TheAndrey dont get the 2.5 many recalls ...pre cat problems ...specially 02 03 ...
This is my first car.
youre the best saabkyle04
@IrishChris1979 quckest ive seen stock was 15.9@87mph But magazines say 16.1@86mph
the transmission on the 2002-2006 Nissan Altima Transmission 5-speed manual 6-speed manual SE-R 4-speed automatic 5-speed manumatic 3.5 SE & 3.5 SL only
@IrishChris1979 Yup. For 165hp its quck almost faster than an Sonata 200hp but the se-r is faster than the accord 2.4 Ex.
Befor Renault came into the picture, a Nissan with 160,000 miles was just getting started they would do 300,000+ miles easily with very little problems. It's sad that now a Nissan (Renault) with 160,000 miles is now "getting up in years and mileage". The 3.5 vq Altima has its share of post-Renault issues: oil consumption, motor mounts, timing chain tensioner, A/C failure, catalytic converters, sensors, It's a shame. Renault has and continues to lower Nissans reliability across the board.

TruAgape123 a lot of cars nowadays are like though. Even toyotas are losing edge a too. The toyota camrys 4 cylinder suffered oil comsumption issues. The accords did too i believe
CVT didnt come till later. I believe its a 4 or 5 speed automatic.
can you do a test drive of a 2008 nissan altima 2.5 sl
i will buy it
Are this reliable ?
@jsnevels2 I'm sure your numbers are real world numbers. These numbers I am going to list are just from the magazines I've collected since 1985. *03' Altima 3.5 (5MT) 0-60 = 5.9, 1/4 Mile = 14.5 @ 98.3 *02' Altima 3.5 (4AT) 0-60 = 6.5, 1/4 Mile = 14.9 @ 93.6 *05' Altima 3.5 (5AT) 0-60 = 6.2, 1/4 Mile = 14.7 @ 94.9 *06' Altima SE-R (6MT) 0-60 = 5.8, 1/4 Mile = 14.4 @ 99.6 *Again, these are just from various magazines I have... It just gives a basic idea.
@saabkyle04 where is this?
@Jharp82 It will probally do 130-135mph but if its a manual 146mph (limiter)
@MegaAudilover As long as you have a valid drivers license. If you're looking for a car and come off as genuinely interested in it they will allow you to test drive it.
@jsnevels2 an theauto?
500 RPM idle?

@06Katana1 is the digital ac , heater control,
The 3rd gen ran from 2002-2006 with a refresh in 2005 that focused largely on the interior and front end. Personally I prefer the 02-04 but I have an 02 so it might just be what I'm used to. Price? Depends on the model and year and milage. To get this exact body style with the V6 I'd put you at anywhere from three to ten grand depending on condition, age, and milage.

@@Koinzell007 Probably? Hard for me to tell without looking at it. If you do go through with it check the floorpans if you live in a rust prone area. Also make sure your valve cover gaskets aren't leaking oil. I sold my Altima 'bout 2 years ago. But I've seen it on the road a few times and know it's over 200K.
