For 1999, Altima is refined with a number of enhancements, including the addition of standard alloy wheels on the GLE model, a new head unit and face­ plate for models equipped with AM/FM/cassette/CD audio systems, improved sound and speaker quality for AM/FM/cassette/CD audio systems, availability of a power antenna with the GXE Security and Convenience Package, the addition of standard vari­ able intermittent wipers on SE and GXE models and the availability of two new exterior colors, Blue Dusk and Titanium Frost. "Altima has been very well received since its total make-over one year ago," said Michael Seergy, vice president and general manager, Nissan Division. "It gives us a solid, high value mid-size model between our other two sedan offer­ ings, the Maxima and Sentra, and offers buyers a wide range of trim levels includ­ ing the luxurious GLE and sporty SE." In designing the second generation Altima, the stylists at Nissan Design International, Inc. (NDI) in La Jolla, Calif., set two goals: Make sure they did­ n't lose any of the original Altima's strong consumer appeal and find a way to offer more of everything that had made the first generation a success. They set out to create a shape that would be effi­ cient and stylish, distinctive and elegant, without pretense or resorting to styling gimmicks. 1 99 9 Nissan Altima GXE Many styling cues of the previous Altima were maintained, such as the thick bases of the A- and C-pillars that visually impart the solidity of the vehicle. The large greenhouse also was preserved to create the sensation of a larger car for occupants. Four models of Altima are available for 1999: XE, GXE, GLE and SE. The Altima XE offers standard 5- speed manual transmission, dual front air bags, power windows, power-assisted rack-and-pinion steering, 4-way adjustable front bucket seats, full wheel covers, body-color bumpers, flush- mounted multi-parabola headlights, dual power-adjustable outside mirrors, power windows, tilt steering column, dual cup holders with covers and more. Altima GXE, the volume model, builds on the offerings of the XE with the addition of standard comfort and conve­ nience touches such as CFC-free air con­ ditioning, a 4-speaker AM/FM/CD audio system, cruise control, power door locks, illuminated entry and exit system with battery saver, 60/40 split fold-down rear seat and wood tone trim. For affordable luxury with a sporty attitude, Altima SE adds a body-color front grille signature bar, sport-tuned sus­ pension, rear disc brakes, 15-inch alloy wheels and 205/60R15 tires, and a body- color rear spoiler. Also standard are a 120-watt 6-speaker audio system with compact disc and cassette tape players, power antenna, remote keyless entry and Vehicle Security System, sporty seat cloth, white-faced gauges and leather- wrapped steering wheel and gear shift knob (manual transmission only). For buyers who want it all, the top-of- the-line Altima GLE trades in the SE's sporty suspension for a softer, more luxu­ rious ride, leather seating surfaces with power-operated 8-way adjustable driver's seat and standard 4-speed automatic transmission. Available options for 1999 include the automatic transmission (standard on GLE), Anti-lock Braking System (ABS), power glass sunroof, leather seat trim/power driver's seat (optional on SE, standard on GLE) and two special option packages.

LiquicMilled engine mounts These rubber mounts are filled with a viscous liquid to provide cushioning where Altima's engine joins the vehicle frame. Benefit: Reduced engine friction vibration for a smother, quieter ride. Timing Chain Most cars have a rubber timing belt that needs changing every 96,000 km. Altima's steel chain requires little or no maintenance. Benefit: Lower cost of ownership. Microfinished Crankshaft A technique borrowed from Formula One racing, microfinishing eliminates tiny irregularities on surface so that shafts turn with the least possible resistance. Benefit: Less friction means reduced heat and vibration which, in turn, boosts power and prolongs engine life. ♦Import, lower-middle sedans.
