Default RE: Nissan Altima enters the two-door market

This does not compete anymore against the pony cars than the Stratus Coupe, Monte Carlo, and Mercury Probe (excuse me Cougar) did. This will compete against any of the remaining FWD mid-sized coupe market which appears to have lost its popularity. Don't get me wrong I like the looks, but it is not going to compete against the muscle cars. Also if they are not careful, that CVT is going to destroy their reputation along with the reliability issues with the 2.5L I4. The VQ 3.5L will be nice though paired up with a 6-speed manual.
