Do People Actually Want Affordable Cars? // 2024 Nissan Sentra SR Review 

This woman seriously makes the best damn car reviews on the internet. Typically I wouldn't give a rats ass about watching a Sentra review, basically ever. But, when Sarah does it, I suddenly care and pay attention.

I loved my 2013 Manual Sentra, no options, I think I paid $15K…Those were the days!

You now are my Motorweek and Top Gear (when they used to do normal people's car reviews). Thank you for this.

As you mentioned, we get this with a Manual up in Canada. With the manual and proper performance summer tires, this car is a hilarious little commuter to drive.

She outdid herself today, she matched the car AND the grill! Best views on RU-vid!

Whenever I see Sarah do her bolster assessment, I can't help but burst out laughing. It's a great bit, I hope she keeps it in the rotation.

I was done at JATCO…gonna finish watching anyway…

It's a perfectly sensible mode of transportation 👍

I continue not to understand why, when a manufacturer offers a manual in other markets, they deny it to US buyers. But I do recognize that says more about US drivers than the car manufacturer. Sad, because small power small cars are 1000 times better with a manual in every way that matters.

I had a 2007 Nissan Maxima and I changed the CVT oil twice (50,000 and 100,000 miles) when I sold it I had 160,000 miles and it was still running like a champ. The only issue we had with it was the alternator due to an oil leak from the valve cover. Easy fix.

Just the greatest review from the hardest working content creator on RU-vid 🙂much respect ✊

Sarah does the best car reviews on RU-vid hands down!!🇺🇸💪🇺🇸💯

Surprising that it handles better than the Mazda3. Not that Nissan couldn’t, just that they bothered.

For commuting, school, just everyday life, no human *needs* more car than this. It is the best kept secret in the auto industry, imho.

Compared to my 1991 SE-R that I bought brand new for $12,900 30 years later you get a LOT for your money, however I agree that my 91 with 140HP and a 5 Speed was much more fun and sporty....

Bless Canada for "sticking" with the turbo 6 speed.

Your outfit always matches with the car you're reviewing. Biggest attention to detail.

I'm really glad I found Sarah's channel a couple of years ago!

"That's a big ass trunk for a little ass car!" Lmao. Your the bestest human that reviews cars for other humans that watch car reviews on the internet. ❤ Sarah n' tuned

Once again Sarah’s clothes match the color of the car. That can’t be a coincidence! 😂❤

One thing I always note for people crying about "manuals are dying" no they aren't. Around the world they are still being sold as the affordable option. Outside of the US auto is considered more of a luxury. The reason why we dont have affordable cars is because companies decided we get enough financing so why bring the affordable option to the US?

One of my favorite cars I ever had was my '87 Nissan Pulsar. Pearl beige, 5 speed manual, t-tops and independent rear suspension. You could power brake that car into a parallel spot on the other side of the street with just a little rain.

I hope that you have helped those who are about to make a purchasing decision of the Nissan Sentra SR. You gave it the scrutinized canniness. That word IMO describes your manner overall.

Love the Starfleet cosplay

WOW Sarah really puts her heart and soul into these reviews, keep it up Sarah your amazing and very funny too! THANKS !!

Being completely honest, I have one of the first Nissan Versa Notes with CVT transmission. I don't take care of it nearly as much as I should. It's more of my wife's car, but we are about to hit 100k miles without any CVT issues. This car has driven from the Gulf to the east coast to the west coast and is still a daily driver. I don't know if it is user error that causes so many Nissan CVTs to die or if it's just a factory lottery. Either way, I really wish we got more manual transmissions in these cars. I believe the Versa is the only one in the states with a manual as an option, but only on the base model ='(

Thank you for all your hard work🙂

Love watching Sarah! A woman that knows cars is a rarity on RU-vid. Keep up the great work!

I bought a 96 200SX SE-R new, and it's still my favorite car I've ever owned. Thing was a blast!

I was just considering this car and boom a Sarah review video. Maybe the only person to recognize my old 200 sx se-r. I've never even heard anyone mention it. It had the sr20de and a sweet 5 speed. I destroyed mine. I bought a g20 to replace it but that was a completely different car although it had the same engine. You're always the absolute best Sarah!

Sarah, you and savagegeese are making car reviews great again

Another great car review. Your channel is the best car channel out there!

As so many other viewers are pointing out; yours are truly the best car reviews on the youtube and you have the ability to make any car interesting to watch the review of it. - Fun Fact: my very first car, a 1985 Saab 90, was almost exactly that shade of greyish blue. It had the weird tendency of looking super dull in good weather and very nice on dark days with stormclouds and rain... anyway, thank you for what you do and Stay Awesome!

Great work Sarah, as always. My favourite RU-vid car reviews, your knowledge, details, and of course, winning personality (I get your fashion choice for the car too), always shine! 👍🙏

1984 Nissan Sentra Std, bought in Giessen Germany. 1.6 Liter 4 cylinder about 69 HP & Torque, 5 speed manual. Speedometer would read about 105MPH on the Autobahn. No Radio or Air Conditioning.

Always enjoy Sarah's reviews

Nice job Sarah!

Always enjoy your car test/review.

Did I spy a teeny, tiny scorpion checking out the wheel arch during the intro? 😉 Very fair review and I agree it is an attractive design inside and out. That mileage is crazy good for a non-hybrid. Thank you, Sarah. 👍👍👍

My fav car channel!!! I hope you enjoy the holiday and take a day the relax.

Happy Humpday Sarah!!! Stay excellent!!!😎

i had a 2008 sentra that bought 2nd hand with 50k on the clock, i used to change the cvt fluid every 25k, was going strong until got totaled at 235k by a distracted bus driver, but the curtain air bag saved my wife´s life

I think it's great that you called out the braking intervention, not enough reviews look at this kind of "living with this vehicle" detail. I'm very glad I can disable the one assist my car has.

Hope you enjoyed your car review break from the Celica. You are a hard working woman who puts out amazing car reviews. Even if I’m not interested someone is.

I love catching a new Sarah, I wait for you every few days!!!! Those cars last forever, I just love a manual transmission.

Love your reviews of cars based on what they are designed for. For the nerds who want to see how they're built is something no other reviewer does that I know.

This woman knows her stuff!

I enjoyed this review and also you in grey blue 🐸

i work in car rental, and I drive this generation of Sentra around a lot. as an owner of a B15 Spec V, the B18 picked right back up where the B16 and B17 fumbled and took the platform in the direction it should have gone when the B15 needed to be replaced. it's an amazing car, new life for the Sentra platform, and the base model cars we have in our rental fleet can easily outdo what my modded B15 is already capable of. all of Sarah's thoughts on this car are a mirror of my own thoughts on the B18, from the well deserved praise to the little negatives she brought up. the B18 just needs its chance to truly become what it can really be and reach its fullest potential, and it can shine like its SE-R predecessors once did. my hope in Nissan is not very deep, however, but I myself would very much like to see Nissan bring some inexpensive fun back to their lineup. theSR is setting the right foundation for it, now they just need to build something amazing with it.

Nice been wanting one of these

Sarah. I can't say SPORT anymore! Without saying SSSPORT! 😁😁😁

Yr reviews are much better than Savage Geese.

A great video once again, thank You!

Another fine one. You could make a rocket-powered skateboard sound like a perfect commuter vehicle, with your class and honesty!!🤩

Sarah does the best car reviews)

Happy 4th of July Sarah, it's nice, I would buy it

Hello lovely Sarah. You made my day!

Sarah, I've been watching your Car Videos for a few years now. No One Does It Better !! And please tell us your secrets.......You don't age at all. You are always Wide Eyed and Bushy Tailed.

All and All your reviews are pretty good. And fun to.

Sarah easily putting most car reviewers to shame. So much detailed information its crazy lol

THIS IS A GREAT CAR FOR A FAMILY HAULER AND DAILY DRIVER.

always enjoy watching you Sarah....

Great review! This car looks seriously adequate!

Great video....Thanks Sarah!🌻🐧

Your complete commitment is really impressive, right down to speccing the car to match your wardrobe.

Base Versa starts at $16k and has three pedals. I never thought I'd want a Versa, but I kind of want a Versa.

Great Job!!! Thank You... :-)

A new Sarah video and a cup of Joe in the morning makes my day 😘

Another great review.

Another great review Sarah! You covered everything and then some about this car to the point I almost feel like I test drove it. Also extra credit for using the word samsquanch (TPB)😎. And I know what ya mean, I'm also tall. Was that a scorpion on the fender in the intro? I really miss the older cars that were manual transmissioned (is that a word). In the same era of your (spectacular) Celica, the Datsun B210s and Toyota Corollas were simple, not overpriced and fun to drive. Pretty sure that balance can still be found. Don't like robot assistance or CVTs, that stuff is selling more sizzle than steak to me. Always been mostly a Honda fanboy but c'mon Nissan, we're rooting for ya.

I bought a B13 Sentra brand-new back in '91. It was a fun little car. That 16V I4 engine had some pep, for its day.

that car looks nice, i bet it would be better with a manual transmission and some more horsepower and some better brakes on it.

Excellent and Outstanding!!!!

Oh I owned a 1996 Nissan 200 SX SE-R 5 speed stick in white. Those were the days. I miss it.

I had a 2019 SR Turbo 6 speed manual for a little over a year and loved it. Great to drive, not too fast but not slow either, easy clutch, just made for cheap and dumb fun. Go Nissan! Please get back to your glory days

You look really nice today!!!🩵 Totally enjoy your channel!!!👍🏾 Love from Down Under!!!🖤💛❤️

Nice video...drove a Sentra in Germany in the 1990s while stationed there. Nissan is weird and outdated. As for sedans, I wish Mazda would be bring back the Mazda 6...esp the ones with the V6. Even with their new SkyActiv turbo4 under the hood it would be sexyFun with 256 hp

Awesome video

Hey, My name is Kenny G. I busted out laughing 4:16 when you made the tire comment. Another Great review 😊 nonetheless.

Hi Sarah 👋🏽

Great job 👍

It’s both affordable and adorable…adorffable.

Thanks for sharing. Some important points. This vehicle also has low tires in an urban environment with bumpers and deceleration strips. Parking on a half-pavement you will hear the metal sound of the wheel plowing the road. Under the hood looks messy and access is less convenient changing belts, etc.

I like how this car looks

Nice reviews

drove an 02 Spec V for 13 years- tons of sensor issues but i really liked it.

Charming outfit. Thank you for your review of this car. We need to know what non-SUV choices are out there.

Sarah is the President of the KennyG fan club! 😂😂

Great video

My wife has a 2012 Sentra that she keeps in top shape. I cannot believe how much stuff you can get in the trunk of that car. Nice to know Nissan still makes a big trunk on the Sentra.

Hi Sarah, my Talking Snake told me to show you this because you like to learn about stuff. So here it is: The first production car to use a continuously variable transmission (CVT) was the 1958 DAF 600, built in the Netherlands. However, the idea for a CVT has been around for centuries, with Leonardo da Vinci sketching a design in 1490. Other early patents for CVTs were filed in the 1880s by Daimler and Benz.

My second car was a 99 Infiniti I30T with the 3 L VQ, I loved that car. In fact I sold it to my aunt and she still driving it after I ordered the Subaru thing I didn’t like about the car the axle, beam rear suspension, and the four-speed automatic (you could order a manual but hardly anybody did)

Yes some of us want cars!!!! I bought a Versa and really like it. I might have purchased a Sentra which I felt was a gorgeous car if not for The Sentra having a Direct Injection Engine. The Versa does not.

Enjoy every review and thank you for thinking enough us to do them. LOL

My dad died today. Late watching video. nice review.

Lol I just watched your 2020 review & commented of it was still worth it in 2024 & boom! You drop this bomb shell! Debating on this, or mazda3 (mazda3 is a no brainer, but I wouldn't mind saving a little more gas)

Neat graphics when you gave the engine specs.

Excellent video 📹 Lovely Sarah 😍 A sports saloon car 🚗 for the family person.

"Hancook Kenny G", Sarah you cracked me up. 🤣

Cup on hand watching !
