Nice solid, reliable vehicle. I had a 200o Accord Coupe, and am much happier with the Maxima - more room and quieter.

The best family sport sedan under $30K

After driving this car for a year, here's what a test drive won't tell you: 1. The suspension is not so stiff as it might first appear. Over time I have found the ride to be quite smooth. 2. Ergonomics of the console are a marvel. 3. Design of the cabin is very airy and inviting. 4. 200 watt Bose sound system is wonderful. 5. Steering feel a bit heavy. 6. Look forward every day to driving. Don't regret passing over the Passat.

Good Car, Bad Dealer

Got a "good" deal for this 2001 Maxima in 2002, but very disappointed with the dealer. They promised 0% APR then backed out. They promised "lifetime" oil change (twice a year) when we purchased it. We called last week to verify the offer, and the salesperson told us to come in. This morning my wife brought the car in and they told her that there is no such deal. Disgusting place, this Crescent City Nissan in New Orleans.

I have owned 5 Nissan's and I am convinced that these vehicles are reliable. When I test drove the 2001 Maxima, I knew this would be my sixth. It is an incredibly reliable, safe, and, powerful car. I chose the five-speed manual GXE, and it is awesome. This car is definately the best bang for your buck!
