Shopping for a used compact sedan is a game of balancing between price and features. But the Nissan Sentra is like a cheat code. It has the kinds of tech features you'll want, but at a price point that's quite a bit lower than what you'd pay for a Honda Civic or Mazda 3. That means you can either save a lot of money or pay the same price as one of those others and get a newer model year. Sounds too good to be true? Well, there are a couple of drawbacks to the Sentra that you might want to consider. We take a close look at the pros and cons of a used Nissan Sentra to help you determine if you should pick, or pass, on this compact sedan.
