The Altima is front wheel drive only, no turbo engines, has a simple suspension design and has an annoying CVT transmission. The Q50 3.0t is one of my favorite rentals, it takes off like a scaled cat, is quiet and comfortable, and much more stable at high speeds than an Altima.
Interesting, I didn't know that. I'll have to try the Q50 next time I see one.

On another note, the selection at PIT was pretty good again. Two Infiniti models, another Pacifica Limited, two Avalons in PC. Didn't get a good look down the line but spotted in Five Star an Avalon and...another last-gen Chevy Impala. They keep popping up.
