Ugh. This I don't get. The Altima is a nice car, I'll admit, but the Sentra? Up 66%?!? What is it, 8 years old now? I drove a rental Sentra last week, and there's nothing special about that car at all. Maybe in higher-level versions it's better, but it strikes me as a dated car that doesn't deserve to sell this well. But it does.... so Nissan is doing something right.

Sentra sales strike me funny as well. I can only assume current gas prices coupled with Nissan dealers maybe offering good incentives on the Sentra have something to do with it.
