Been away from forum awhile, got into an accident,hit from behind at estimated impact of about 50mph. This 03 Altima 5 star impact rating saved my wife's and my life, it crumpled and absorbed the hit, we walked away unmarked but sore a few days. Thank God to be alive. Altima totaled.
Going to Nissan Dealership tommorrow to deal on a 05 X-Trail XE AWD. (this vehicle not available to Americans) It is built on Altima format, 165 HP QR25DE, same as Altima's QR but the torque is modified with 10 less HP. I understand all the Cat converter issues are resolved in this QR now. This X-Trail has been in Europe 4 years now, 2nd year in Canada. It has five star impact rating and the AWD is basically same as Murano and Q4 Infinity I am told, very high end system.
Any one owning or have experience with this X-Trail, safety now real big feature, this X-Trail is higher or more visable, AWD and safer in my opinion. Drivers Seat program on tv give this X-Trail full credit, they find it faultless, I find them very fair in assesments.
Any one know if this is a proven solid choice from Nissan for my family of three passengers?
