First Drive: 2007 Nissan Sentra SE-R


02/22/2007

Nissan Sentra
February 22, 2007 - Though the last-gen Nissan Sentra SE-R had damn near the entire sport compact market to itself, it didn't exactly light the scene on fire. A lot of kids still prefer their 10-year-old Civics and 15-year-old Nissan 240s to the SE-R, and to be honest, we still have yet to see a tricked-out SE-R at a show like Hot Import Nights. But enough people must have purchased the hopped-up version of Nissan's fifth-gen compact sedan, as Nissan has given its latest sixth-gen Sentra the SE-R treatment. Can the new SE-R cut it in a market that now has vehicles like a good Civic Si, MazdaSpeed3 and a revamped GTI?

We think that the latest Sentra SE-R will have a hard time shaking the "chick car" stigma that the base Sentra already has, but Nissan believes that this car can make a splash in the testosterone-filled highly-competitive sport compact scene. Nissan believes in this car so much, it invited us (and a bunch of other tuner-book guys) to thoroughly thrash the car on the "big track" at Willow Springs International Raceway. But before we get to how the vehicle drives, let us first talk about what makes the SE-R different from the run-of-the-mill Sentra.
