So should I buy a 3.5 v6 altima coupe as a commuter?

Nuts to you then. The Coupe market DIED around the mid-2000's. This is why the Monte Carlo, Camaro, Firebird, Solara, and RSX were all killed off.
The Altima and Accord Coupes are an unreliable holdover of a bygone time. Both of them are known for reliability problems if you get the automatic transmissions.

But then you NEED to have a 4 cylinder SEDAN with the CVT to achieve that and the CVT is GOING to blow. It's extremely common to go through 3 transmissions before hitting 100k.
The tuning was only done on the sedan. The coupe didn't receive those updates.

I'm looking at a CPO for the altima, since they discontinued them in 2013. So i need to run the depreciation numbers since I'm gonna need to sell it at 100k if it's unreliable.
It's unlikely that it will make sense to buy it if after the warranty is out it won't be worth anything.

I'm telling you. Your best bet would be to buy an older 2000-2007 Monte Carlo or 2003-2008 Solara.

Mustang is still alive, and it's one of the main cars I'm considering. If I can get an eco boost for the right price that looks like it's "the one" I'm trying to find a cheaper option.
I'm gonna buy a 99-2004 mustang gt if I'm gonna go that old, the 2v 4.6 is a workhorse. It's mileage isn't that great but I believe in it.

Why not Monte Carlo SS?

I already have a 99-2004 mustang gt that I know how to work on. I want the devil I do know rather than the one I do not.
As it turns out I really like the car I already have, I simply need a commuter, the car I normally drive but in auto seems like a slam dunk.

The Coupe market, as has been stated, tanked a decade ago. All the good automatic mid-size coupes are gone. They do not exist anymore. The only surviving relic of them is the Accord Coupe, which again has automatic transmission problems.

I think I'm going to hit up the honda dealership tomorrow (why yes I am pre-approved on credit guy I don't want to talk too thanks for bothering me)
I think I'm going to give the v6 accord coupe a chance. It's a regular auto right?

it's much more reliable than the Nissan, but the Honda automatics are still trouble-prone.
On a related note, look at used Scion FR-S's and Subaru BRZ's. They;re RWD so the automatics are actually reliable. But the flat 4 is still pretty gutless.

Cars too small.
I want a 6 series I just can't afford it.
