in terms of performance i prefer the sentra. may dad owns an altis 1.6j. upon driving it mas maganda performance ng sentra especially during overtaking and highway cruising. engine is more relax even in high rpm plus ride comfort is very pleasing compare sa altis. but in terms for fuel consumption hands down ako sa altis.
i would go for the sentra because it has more amenities and features than the altis j. have test driven one before. ang sarap i-drive. para kang nagmamaneho ng luxury car. power is a little bit at edge compared to altis j.
lamang lang ng altis j dyan is yung resale value.
in terms of fuel consumption, altis.
