Default Opinion of Spec V

My coworker has a 04 Spec V SE-R. He harps all day long Spec V this Spec V that.. blah blah, yada yada. My point being, is a Sentra worth harping over? Doesnt feel like much from the passenger's seat... Just makes me go without MORE sleep to get the lude back together and see if he shuts up then. Anyone raced a Spec V? Ive really had it with the BS

I've never driven one but heard they can be pretty quick and aren't bad cars. When it comes down to it is a civic si or type r worth all the talk? At the end of the day both sentras and civics are entry level cars.

The QR25DE block has a lot of potential, but stock they're nothing worth bragging over.

raced a spec-v?

man, we do more around here than drag race and roll on highways for a living.



the car has a POS interior with absolutely no legroom. The fishnet seats aren't comfortable and the Fosgate radio is overrated.

Judge the car by the car, not by its name or heritage.

Just because its "sentra" can only imply a few things, but everyone else chimed in and mentioned the car's downfalls.

I'll add one more downfall - torsion beam rear suspension

Brembo brakes, 6 speed with LSD, well supportive seats, are definite pro's though.

civics and integras arent supercars either.

brand new, stock for stock, for the price, you get a lot of car for the money you spent. the same amount of money will get a new civic ex. not exactly performance machinery.
