I have a 2021 Encore GX with the 1.3L and love it. It's FWD, so it has the CVT, which is actually not a bad unit and pairs well with the engine. It probably helps that the CVT is chain-driven and doesn't use a steel belt like the ones in Nissans.
A small suggestion- do not make a 4-minute introduction unless you introduce a vehicle that has a lot of history behind it or a vehicle that is anticipated by many people. Furthermore, keep it interesting and make the video short so that people do not lose interest and move away from watching your video. All the best!
I bought my Buick Encore(1.2L) GX ST 2021 in April and I love it. From my previous white Toyota Highlander (05> 4cylinder) to this crossover is great. The Toyota was much too big for me and the Buick is very economical on gas and it’s easy to find parking finally. Especially in Apartment duplexes that have compact parking.#DARLA is my first luxury 🚙 car❤️ and my Chihuahuas fit cozy in the back in their car seats 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐶🐶Hahalol
RU-vid algorithm is scary. Just went and drove one of these. Thinking about making it a track rat. Get home and this pops up in recommended videos. These people should work for the CIA.
Haha that’s awesome! It definitely makes me question sometimes who’s listening! Keep your eyes open as I will be dropping my first video in about a week since 3 years ago! I’m back on RU-vid for good!
Hello I used to have a 2005 Nissan Altima 2.5s,but it is the special edition.I missed a lot even though it dosen't have a GPS. Our car got broken down,so we bought the 2018 toyta highlander.
A couple of minor quips - the 05-06 came with 175 horsepower and 180 torque (you flip those numbers in your review) in the 2.5, and they did offer a v6 model since 2002 (SE and SL) that came with a 3.5 L engine and 250 (02-04) to 255 (05-06) horsepower. The SE-R bumped that up to 260 horsepower along with extra torque, and a hefty increase in price ($23-26k for SE / SL --> $30K+ for SE-R) and the other goodies your review. 😄 I always wanted one when I couldn't afford it and didn't want one (a few years later when they were only in the used market) when I could. So I ended up with an '09 Altima coupe 3.5 SE V6. 270hp standard for the V6 models (07 onward) heh.
The SER is a unique find. I'm an original owner of an 2006 Altima SER from Mossy Nissan in San Diego. I'm currently at 215K miles on the original transmission, engine, and timing chain. The car has needed a few repairs over the years. Mostly maintenance stuff. Valve cover gaskets, shocks/struts, plugs, radiator, power steering high pressure hose, a coolant hose, engine mounts, etc. The biggest glitch with the VQ35 engine of this era is the timing chain guides will eventually slip and the engine will need a timing chain service ($expensive$). You'll hear a whine on startup. My car has that whine and I'll be doing the service soon. (For DIY'ers you can find videos online showing how to do the project. Search for Maximas.) Despite that... My car will still get up--and--go.... Varoom!
Hey! I just purchased mines from a mature original owner. I’m in Orange County. A lot of the above has been rebuilt and/or replaced. Except the timing chain. Have you started on that project? Love to hear back from you! Best,
Anyone know if the SE-R seats would fit into a 2009 nissan altima ?? I wanna put them in even though mine is just a regular altima but boy do I love those seats
I’m wondering too. I found one for 4000$ with 150k miles looks good all stock . Auto transmission I’m wondering if it can last long if I change the fluid
I'm the original owner of a 2006 SER/auto . The car has 215K miles and the tranny still shifts well, but is a little slower on the manual shifts. I've had it regularly serviced at 30k intervals. At 180K I started fluid exchange only. No transmission flush as that can dislodge clutch debris in the system and lead to overall failure. More important is that the car you buy has had the timing chain serviced. The guides and chain should be replaced as this is a failure point and subject to a recall / court ordered settlement.
@@mknucarman he was an elderly man. he saw it at the Long Beach convention center in 2005 and purchased it. he has rebuilt the transmission, high pressure hose, a/c hose, catalytic converter, and some other stuff but the timing chain. I’m not sure if I should replace the timing chains. Reason being, I’ll have to take it somewhere I am definitely not that advanced to replace. Thoughts?
@@JSAUC3 have u bought it ? I have this offer 25k miles 2011 coupe premium. Still debating on buying it I don’t wanna keep up with The maintenance 24/7
I don't understand any of the dislikes on this video. This review is probably the best/most in depth of a V coupe I've seen on RU-vid thus far. I want one now!!!
I'v owned a 2011 CTS-V sedan for about 2.5 years now. I'ts an amazing car. I have a cold air intake and Corsa exhaust. Other than that it's stock. Love the supercharger whine. Thanks for the video. I am looking forward to getting a C8 Corvette in a couple of years.
Im 67 1/2 YO and a retired Union Pipe fitter. My 2012 CTS-V was my retirement gift (2017) to me for 44 years as a fitter. Its a OBM Coupe, because 4 doors are for old people and also its a 6 speed manual, because automatics are for old people! Per Cadillac I have one of 9 built in 2012. I call it it the V -Rocket, my brother calls it Master Blaster! This car is nothing but fun and that is what being young is all about.
