    i have one. bought it brand new 14 years ago. if you can live with 8 to 9 km/liter, you'll be happy with it. and oh yes, the rear passenger space is not that spacious, if your passengers are big. but other than these, it's an ok car.

    Compared to other cars of the same vintage, pretty decent. Medyo makupad ang automatic, but that's to be expected from an old-school four-speed AT.

    Biggest complaint would be the rear seat space... Sentras have always been a bit tight in the rear.

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    ang pinagpipilian ko kasi ngayun mga sir is MAZDA 626 vs. NISSAN SENTRA EX SALOON 1996 1.4 EFI ENGINE

    medyo naguguluhan talaga ako.

    You would definitely have problems sourcing parts for the Mazda 626, or in the least, you will find the parts expensive.

    we have a 2000 ex saloon MT. nothing special. medyo disappointing din ang FC. though given na yun kasi bigbody + small engine.

    usual problems encountered were:
    - easily worn out/damaged clutch. in 8 years naka 4 palit yata kami
    - shocks and kalampag
    - laging pundido ang low beam bulbs

    pero overall its quite reliable.
