The Nissan Sentra SE-R is based on the Sentra sedan, but adds a healthy does of performance. One can distinguish the SE-R by its nose and tail treatments. It also has side sill extensions and a rear spoiler.

The Sentra SE-R can be had in two trim levels: SE-R and SE-R Spec V. The SE-R comes with a 177 horsepower 2.5-liter engine mated to a CVT transmission. The SE-R, despite being a performance-minded model, will return 24 city and 30 highway miles per gallon.

The SE-R also comes complete with steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters, a sport tuned suspension, 17-inch wheels, oil and G-meter gauges, four-wheel disc brakes and sport bucket seats. Vehicle speed sensitive steering gives the car a solid feel, and sport tuned shocks and struts improve performance.

The Spec V increases the SE-R's performance by adding a 200 horsepower engine, a six-speed manual transmission, a further-tuned suspension, limited-slip differential and larger breaks. The SE-R Spec V will return 21 city, and 29 highway mpg.

On the front, are 11.7-inch four-wheel drive brakes and on the back, 12.6 inch ventilated front rotors. Combined, they work together to maximize stopping power.

Upgrades inside both models include an oil pressure gauge, lateral G meter, sports seats with the SE-R logo and red seat belts in the SE-R Spec V.

Key competitors
The Nissan Sentra SE-R and SE-R Spec V are both out-of-the-box tuner cars meant compete with the likes of the Honda Civic Si primarily, but will also find competition in the newly introduced Ford Focus ST, as well as the Mazda Mazdaspeed3 hatchbacks.
