Altima would be 12k after discounts and trade. It's brand new, SV model with factory warranty, with option to extend it out to 7 years bumper to bumper. Which I like, since I still don't trust CVT's.
The Charger is a 2015, with 25k miles. After trade in, I'm looking at around 11, possibly 10k. It's an SXT, so nothing too special, but would be a more enjoyable drive than the Altima. Altima has nice safety tech that the Charger doesn't, but the Charger has more power and a more traditional transmission. And being a few years old means parts are available outside the dealership. I like both, but don't like the Nissan's anemic 4cyl engine, and I really don't like that the Dodge is being sold as-is, and any problems are going to be out of pocket. Dunno which way to go on this one. I need something with tons of legroom, and I don't want a truck or SUV. These two so far have met my needs, and I'm wondering which way to go. --- http://i.imgtc.com/tUK3LwiHnb.jpg 4/15/1951 - 3/18/2014 "But not forgotten." ... Copied to Clipboard!

Altima if you have kids. Charger if you're single and on the prowl.

SXT kinda sucks though...that's the RWD V6, right? Only way I'd get the V6 Charger is if it was the AWD version. Still looks fucking badass though. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Charger There is an R/T of the same year on the lot, but with 10k more miles and would be about 2 grand more than the Altima. Still as-is however, and I'm pretty sure my insurance would love to adjust my payments accordingly. But I'm just conflicted. Logic says to get the brand new, extended warranty sensible sedan. But my heart says to hell with all that and get a funner Charger. R/T would be tops, but that's a check my ass just can't cash right now. --- http://i.imgtc.com/tUK3LwiHnb.jpg 4/15/1951 - 3/18/2014 "But not forgotten." ... Copied to Clipboard!

The new Optima looks nice. Might check out the S model tomorrow.
Kinda sucks they don't get remote start though. Or push button start. I'd have to move up to an EX with leather for 4 grand more. Does come with a monster 10 year/100k mille powertrain warranty though. --- http://i.imgtc.com/tUK3LwiHnb.jpg 4/15/1951 - 3/18/2014 "But not forgotten." ... Copied to Clipboard!

The '15 Sentra I'm using as trade has served me well, though I bought it brand new and only has 14k miles. But yeah, it's why I was looking into an extended warranty with the Nissan.
Especially since the JD Power review of the 2017 Altima didn't instill a lot of confidence. The 2017/18 Optimas seem much more solid though. I can live without remote start and push button start. Nicer screen too. --- http://i.imgtc.com/tUK3LwiHnb.jpg 4/15/1951 - 3/18/2014 "But not forgotten." ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, I'm digging the Optima.
S model, new for next year. I lose the remote start the other two have but get a far better warranty, and more cold weather options, like defrosting side mirrors, and vents for the rear windshield. 288/mo for 5 years, but I also have to put down 1200 ontop of the car I'm trading to do it. --- http://i.imgtc.com/tUK3LwiHnb.jpg 4/15/1951 - 3/18/2014 "But not forgotten." ...

It'd be a separate remote, but I could in theory. But I'm trying to thin out my keys, not add remotes. It's not a huge deal breaker though. It was just a nice extra feature. --- http://i.imgtc.com/tUK3LwiHnb.jpg 4/15/1951 - 3/18/2014 "But not forgotten." ... Copied to Clipboard!

I owned a 2008 Nissan Maxima that I gave to my mom when I finished school. I bought it with 40,000 miles and changed the CVT fluid once at the dealership because they were extending the warranty to 120,000 miles when you did that back then. The car now has about 180,000 miles. The transmission has been rock solid. Obviously, my experience is anecdotal at best.
