- In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2008 Nissan Sentra SE-R Spec V. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
I remember I got this car brand new in highschool (07) it was Soo fun to drive and I had a lot of good times, then in 13' I bought an altima. Another great Nissan experience...now I'm practically 30 and I bought a BMW 4 series coupe and I love my car now but when ever I see this generation Sentra on the road I always smile when I see it and remember all the memories, road trips, parties and blunt rides I had in it 🙂.
Alguém veio por causa do backstage ? Kkkkkk
Sim lkkkkk
Simmm
Kkkkkk
Com certeza...😂😂😂

The SE R Spec V is MUCH more fun to drive than the SR. I have a 2011 SR and used to have a '07 Spec V. I still miss the Spec V-especially the 6 speed manual trans, but my SR gets MUCH better gas and is easier to drive better in city..
Se tem sentra chapéu Véio do BACKSTAGE TEM LIKE.. BELO PROJETO
1:38 He put the handbrake down lol. Would've been a cool video if he was on a hill. :D
Anyways nice car.
Then he fall
I own a 2010 SE-R...I love the design on this car
Sim, meu amigo, assim como você, estou aqui pelo Dudu do Backstage! Kkkkkkkk
Lembrei dele kkkk
Fun little car to drive! I drove an SR model amazing handing these cars have
I watch you every morning right before I go get drunk :)
This Sentra is pretty awesome. If I had time, I'd try to do a tour of my '02 Sentra SE-R.
ManTuna did u?
THE FEW, THE PROUD, THE SPEC-V's
I have one of these in "super black" and I love it. Definitely a bit of a sleeper that surprises people at how quick it can be. Make sure you get it with the LSD and it will corner and launch (or both simultaneously) very nicely. Conti Extreme DWS tires are decent on it. I love everything but the shifter - it is very quick and a shortish throw but it can be balky especially approaching redline or 1st to 2nd... Downshifts very nicely though.
I got the 2010 sentra in the regular version but this ser is down my list now 😱 please be careful when you pushes the buttons and knobs 😅
So did you ever give in and buy one
I had a 2004 Spec V, and it handled very neutral. The one thing I didn't like was the plasticky, vague gear shifter. Solid pocket rocket for those on a budget. Honda Civic Si is a close rival.
i never knew that your videos were not hd when you upload them
Kyle, you rock! Great vid as always bud!
i always wanted to see this car fully reviewed!! :)
gotta say the engine sounds badass! thanks for excellent videos saabkyle04!!
-Cody
Excellent video, very informative.
I love these little cars. I think they look like a mini maxima so I dont see why people think these cars are ugly. If I had to buy a 4 cylinder sport compact this would be it. The civic si is nice but who don't have one?
The only thing I don't like about this car is how it looks. A 200HP engine in a car that looks like that? It just doesn't match...
that is exactly what i love about it , it is like a unexpected car
It's not a cop magnet, it's great.
it schleep
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
Look at the Ford Fiesta ST.
The horn on the sentra is the same exact horn form the 90s to 2012 till they replaced it with a cheap meep horn for 2013
lol
123chunhou can confirm. I bought a 15 versa and fucking hate its horn
Its a fucking horn who gives a shit
I have the 2012. Love it. Fun for me and a sleeper for everyone else. :)
Best car in the universe to me
Auction vids are the best.
Good review & great Sentra.
This thing is a total sleeper, it's right about even with the current and new Si. And it has a really fat torque curve for a N/A 4 cyl.
Olha o Ronco desse Sentra que top, imaculado !!!
i like this style of sentra it looks like mini version of the pervious altima :)
Saabkyle04 great video. In fact your older video on a 96 lumina inspired my first car choice. Keep it up
Is the music you listen to from the band The Outfield?
can u please do a nissan altima se-r with the 3.5 liter v6?
I love those red seat belts. And I think you forgot to mention that this car has the "SE-R Package" which comes with the LSD, upgraded Rockford sound system, and sunroof.
Best looking sentras ever
why do people automatically (no pun intended lol) assume Kyle can't drive a stick? I've noticed that happening quite a few times lately.
i drove one of these back from the auction at fall branch. that thign is FUN to drive. was doing laps around hte other cars lol
Surprised by the performance... 200 horses! I was expecting 140 hp!
+David Garcia Test drove one the 2010 models a week ago, it handles pretty well and can definitely give you a good time on the highway
its faster than a mazda3 lol
@Pioneers22014 its a auto-test feature to make sure that every gauge is working properly
About time! Try to find a 2002-2006 Spec V or the classic 91-94 SE-R.
Looks like a fun little thing, I would drive it. :D
Yeah the 06 Sentra is really nice .. almost bought one but I had to put the seat all the way back just to fit, also the pedal positions are a little off. Still, great performance and looks really cool. I love my 08 though, wasn't sure about the style but it's grown on me :)
I think this car should be more popular than it is.
I love the red seatbelts and the red velvet in the storage compartment; they're definitely unique touches that are really cool in my opinion. I just wish those were stock touches. Nice car though still, just not enough character to compete with the Civic SI yet.
I don't like how you recorded you speaking separately, it sounds weird haha, I know it's so we can hear you better but still, great review btw I've wanted one of these for awhile but just not enough to buy it haha
lost my 2010 base model to a drunk driver yesterday, the SE R might be the moves now.
Did it happen?
Hey Kyle. Was wondering if you were looking at any other cars to buy that you like, if you ever got rid of your Genesis.
My brother had a 2002 se-r spec v, but it was a lemon! went through 5 throttle body sensors, had to replace the computer, had to replace the engine, replaced the radiator, and other small things. Luckly he worked for at a nissan dealership and he had an extended warranty which covered most of his problems. He just thinks that his was a lemon due b/c he never had other people complain about the mass of problems w/ their sentras
I like the color contrast stitiching.
@benchod94 Nope incorrect. It shows forward and backward acceleration. Not lateral. Not really useful but makes for a fun trick to keeping passengers stuck in the seat attempting to read the sensor though.
0:50 I like that startup
i love this car with this color!! :)
nice dad shoes and dad shorts lmao
the 2007-present Nissan Sentra is assembled in
Aguascalientes, Mexico
@Pioneers22014 Manufactures are adding a "greeting" to lesser cars nowadays. Just like how the Mazda 6 (which is a greeting I like). But it could also be for those of us who still let the ECU boot and the injectors prime (a way to use time while u wait).
hi kyle i sow that at allcity auto there is a mercedes-benz E320 wagon can you do a video of it?
Hey Kyle, can you do a review on the 2012 Nissan Versa and the 2012 Volkswagen Beetle?
i like this little car, i've driven a 2.0 sl but i want to drive one of these. the seats look more comfy than in the sl model too. i think this ser spec v look better than the 02-06 model it replaced but thats me.
From music to cars, Mercedes-Benz USA debuted a new television ad to mark the launch of its all-new C230 sports coupe. The television spot will run during programs including West Wing, Frasier, Friends, NYPD Blue, Good Morning America, Spin City and the Tonight Show. The spot will also air on national cable networks including VH1 and Comedy Central.
How's the reliability on these? Gonna get me one
It looks like a Cadillac on the front
ChronicYT45 Random videos & more! Oh my God it does look like a Cadillac in the front
Michael Campos
Cadillac for the extremely poor. Like, extremely poor. Like high school asian poor.
@@yiihn "high school asian"
lol not sure whether you're trying to be stereotypical or not.
Not in the slightest
could you possibly do walkthrough of 1980's nissan pulsar?
would love too see one of these.
John Weil good luck finding one. they are so rare
Man that car spits!
I never knew that exhaust pipe would always keep leaking
@wotan20 there are numerous spec v's with the maxima engine in them
@Vanuatoo
The car must have been sitting for a while so lots of the gasses condensed in the piping/muffler.
Saw an add for one of these:
5.5k$, 100k km
Thoughts?
Be careful, these cars has CVT trans and there’s a reason why people sell them with low miles.
R-A-H_- it’s a manual...
Ik this was a while ago, in nov 2020 I bought a 170k km example for 5200, so that would’ve been a damn good deal.
@Josephalosaurus It's not gas, it's condensation from the exhaust being warmer than the outside air.
If you remember the 05 Altima, I always considered this version of the Sentra to be the baby Altima. Anyone's thoughts on that one?
I am not a hater but i will state a fact to all civic kids, this is a real car with real power. It can top out at top speeds with ease while a civic lacks the torque. also, this is a really rare car, as i dont see any of these anywhere. the new civics look like a rryhard design prius no lie. This actually has smoked out taillights and a full suspension system.
I know this was 6 years ago but I agree. I have an SE-R myself and It is honestly a great car.
Min Sim would it be a good car for a high schooler?
I want to see this as Nissan New Compact Saloon in Thailand soon
@saabkyle04 can you do a srt8 300c cause i know u already did one but that one was in your small years.. No can u do one
Hey Kyle,
Could you do a Volvo 850 T-5R. 0 to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 5.7 seconds. I wanna see that. Btw loved the video!
@tikibuddy25 It's called gauge sweeping. That's their way of letting you know that they are working properly.
This Car is Silver
Ah, I've been waiting for this one for a while! I used to really want this car, (now I want a Genesis Coupe... irony bonus?) and I still like it, being a current 2004 Sentra owner.
Just not too cool that it takes premium with these gas prices...
I own a sentra 2006 I feel you with wanting a genesis coupe sweet cars and amazing upgrade from 06 sentra
the transmission on the 2007-present Nissan Sentra
Transmission
6-speed manual
CVT
How hard would it be to drop a neo into this car?
1:10 I like that horn
@saabkyle04 hey lad. i know your busy but when you have free time please do an aston martin DBS. there is one in foreign cars italia, i saw it when you reviewed the rapide and v8 vantage convertible. its my all time favourite car.
Fastest car alive!
what a good car
@2004NissanSentra I drive a 2007 Spec, and I agree the styling isn't great. It does help to contribute to a sleeper status if you're going to modify it though. I think that they should have shaved off the roofline a bit and maybe lowered it some, because it just isn't sleek. It looks okay, but it looks very tall. And drives like it too.
@Santiago Marti Garo you need an oil change or you need a timing chain. Take it to your dealer for an oil change. And they will do an inspection
thanks kyle
I said this before but ill say it again. Thumbs up if you think kyle should mention tire specs for future vids! thanks guys ( :
I am not sure how people figure how Kyle can't drive stick. It's not like his car is standard and he makes vids of himself driving it everyday and not being good at it. These are all different cars that he has never driven and almost no two clutches are exactly the same. And in the test drive vids he dosen't shift too soon or too late or bog launch it. I think he does a good job considering the diversity of vehicles he drives
Do a video on how to drive stick
why do some of the newer cars tachometer and speedometer needles go to max reading then back down on start up, like this car and the camaro and others??
Combine a Sentra chassis to an Altima drivetrain and voilà!, you have a peppy little 'ricer'. Affordable, good enough for daily commute, yet still fun to drive, when desired.
Is.....is it auction time?!?!?!?!
R.I.P. it was taken too soon.
why would the emergency brake be down wouldnt it be needed since its a stick?
Is that normal ? Does this car sound like its running ok ? I just got a spec v and was just wandering.
Riki Angelov where were you wandering to...
The last time I saw an SE-R of this gen was like...last year! Though I think it should have nismo coilovers from the factory with a lower ride height..
cool vid
Is it normal, that so much water was coming out the exhaust?
I had a sentra 2.0s and I liked it up until it was time for transmission repairs. I had the 6 speed manual and it cost $3,000 to fix because every component went out at once. Other than that no complaints
@saabkyle04 They need to watch the 2002 Sentra test drive video. It is a manual and he drives it in the video.
@perrythekiller the tubes of you are still processing it
At least it's not that crappy CVT transmission that Nissan loves soo much when it breaks down before 30k haha
@hehh543 what would be the point? it wouldn't be a sports sedan anymore, it would be a typical econo-box.
where all the Mx-5's at? :0
