Why should I also consider these? X

The 2008 Nissan Sentra is up against tough competition.

The 2008 Honda Civic offers such variety, including coupe and sedan body styles and multiple powertrains, even hybrid and natural gas.

The 2009 Toyota Corolla is especially attractive in its top trim level, but the Corolla looks less appealing in the base trim.

Domestically, the all-new 2008 Ford Focus offers coupe and sedan body styles, but buyers tend to be attracted to its powerful SYNC entertainment system rather than its homely new look.

The 2008 Sentra also has to compete against the Mazda3, a perennial enthusiast favorite for its handling.

Comparatively, the Hyundai Elantra and Dodge Caliber lag this pack in overall refinement and style, but the Sentra (even in Spec V trim) is no match for the 285-hp Caliber SRT4.
