Starting today, upwardly mobile Facebook users can visit ImpressWithSentra.com to have Epps talk them up as an adrenaline junkie, an incurable romantic or a business dynamo in a customized, shareable video. Participants will also be able to enter to win one of three grand prizes: a $1,000 Great American Days Experience gift card for an adventure-filled day for two, a one-night stay at an upscale hotel and dinner at an exclusive restaurant for a romantic night for two, or a $1,000 Nordstrom or Brooks Brothers gift card for a stylish new wardrobe. Contest entries will be accepted until 11:59 p.m. EDT on May 1^st.

"Who doesn't want to turn heads and get noticed when making a first impression?" said Jon Brancheau, vice president, Marketing, Nissan North America. "We're giving everyone a chance to look their best, with a little help from Nissan and the power of social media."

Inspired by the all-new 2013 Nissan Sentra, Nissan developed the "Impress With Sentra" program to build awareness of the vehicle among potential customers looking for a stylish and fuel-efficient small car. Sentra's all-new design is elegant, modern and refined, reflecting a "professional" character targeted at upwardly bound buyers who aspire to drive something more premium than some of the other designs in the segment. The Sentra focuses on class-above design standards inside and out, as well as efficiency in engineering. Not surprisingly, the all-new seventh generation design stands as the most innovative and sophisticated Sentra in the nameplate's 30-year history.
