Nissan Altima
The main perks of getting the Nissan Altima are the roomy and comfortable cabin and its wide range of options. This capable sedan offers two engine choices: a 270 hp 3.5-L V-6 and a 182 hp 2.5-L inline-four. Regardless of which one you pay for, it will have a CVT. Other noteworthy features include the addition of paddle shifter, stiffer suspension tuning, and unique wheels. It also has advanced safety measures such as blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control. You would not normally get some of these features free on the regular mid-size sedan.
BMW 5 Series E39
It is a little unfortunate that the BMW 5 Series E39, produced from 1995 to 2004, did not age very well. Nonetheless, it still shows the innovation of the German manufacturer. It would not be unusual to see a used E39 that has clocked 250,000 miles already. However, a well-maintained one should be able to cover a lot more than that. BMW and its inline six engines have always impressed the public with their performance and reliability. The E39 5 Series certainly lived up to our expectations.
