Talking I love the G20

This car is amazing:bandit: There are a lot of critics that call the G20 a overpriced sentra. Do they still feel that way when they compare Lexus/camry, Audi/passat, Acura/Accord? Where the hell do they get off? The Sentra is ugly, assembled in Mexico, so-so build quality, lower warranty, and you don't get your ass kissed when you go back to the dealer. This alone justifies the couple extra thousand. Blaze on :greenchai

Well for starters the only thing the G20 shares with the sentra is the engine and the rear suspension (P11). Other than that it is a different chassis! When someone calls the G20 a dressed up Sentra it just shows their ignorance.

I thought the G20 had a different rear suspension? or something added to it? or is that just the front?

Just wondering....

The only thing the P10 shares is the motor, the P11 shares the motor and the rear suspension.

Your right jalterio, the G20 is awesome! But, you know what - i'd rather have critics flame it, b/c then only a limited amount will buy it. I love the uniqueness of the car - unlike those civics

I agree, out of all the cars i have owned or driven the Primera is tops when it comes to handling and value for money.
May not be the quickest around but it's no snail either.
After sales is great, and its just a real "fun" car to drive

Actually, the rear suspension on the P11 is more like the Maxima's rear suspension, than the Sentra. But who cares they're all real similar. The rear suspension on the P10 is very very similar to the 300ZX rear suspension (I was told this by a Nissan Mechanic after he worked on my car)

yah, I'm liking my G especially now that the service engine light is OFF! ehehehe

anyway, its the best looking and best packaged car in our range that's for sure. dont care about camrys or maximas or altimas or accords or any of those other 4doors dat just looks like a eco-box with a bigger motor...unfortunately, most americans only care about 0-60 times. sad sad sad!!!

when I took the car into the dealer to get the oil changed, almost everyone at the service counter came by to checkout my G. they were like wow! NICE CAR! and this is a BMW, Benz, Porsche, Infiniti, Honda, automall. hehehe. some idiots even thought my G was a 325I.... the hell?! :finger:

but if I was to criticize my P11, it would be the following:

1. sloppy AT
2. noisy rain water splashing noise during rain
3. buzzing from instrument panel

not bad at all.

yep, about one month after I got da P11 noticed that the panel was buzzing. it sounds like one of the cables going to the guages is buzzing. not sure. worsened after putting on the arospeed muffer as it has a deep tone. but after the car heats up, the buzzing stops... yep, bothering the hell out of me....this aint a taurus, ya know. hehehe.

ken, I agree that the auto cars have VERY week power. this is especially bad in conjunction with only 140 hp engine...


never had the rattling noise and i've had the car for almost 2 years... not even in the coldest of winter (below 0*) have I even heard a buzz..
