20th Anniversary Edition Maxima
This is my 4th Maxima and I absolutely love this car. I've had it 4 and a half years now. The car rides smooth and quiet. It has a strong 227 Hp engine, the same one found in the 2001 Infinity I30. 4900 miles on it and still performs like new. No problems to report. All I've done to this car is replaced the tires when needed. The reliability of this car is excellent. This is exactly why I buy Maximas and nothing else, it's the best car for the money. I'm about to buy a 2006 Maxima. I've received many great offers on my car to sell.
MY 20TH A.E. MAX ( Z edition )
I've been driving my 20th a.e. maxima for more than two years now and i still feel like racing everytime i'm in the driver seat. It definitely is a four door sports cars as Nissan claims.
Best car I've ever owned. Without a doubt.
My car has 260,000 miles today. Routine maintenance and second clutch. Nothing major. Four door dings looks near new and still runs like new. I consider selling it but then reconsider. Bought it new. I knew I couldn't afford it; but it was an awesome nice car I felt I didn't deserve. Empire Lakewood Nissan helped make it affordable. A year later brought Mom in and she bought a nice Maxima. She still has hers too and loves the car. .

Excellent Car!!
My husband and I purchased two brand new Nissan Maxima's 2001 Limited Edition cars (made in Japan). After I bought mine, he loved it so much, he bought one. I still have mine and it is an awesome car! I have maintained all regular maintenance & service on it and the items that needed repair (catalytic converter and alternator) were covered under warranty. This is the second Maxima (& 4th Nissan) I've owned and it is very fast, has great pick-up and is still stylish (after 7 years). My husband just traded his car in because he wanted a 4 cylinder and now misses his Maxima. The Bose system has incredible sound, all controls & power items still work, no problems with leather or paint! Buy one!!
What a blast !!!
What a blast to drivel. The only things that I would change would be the front-wheel drive (too much torque steer) and a more powerful sub for the somewhat weak BOSE system. I've had no mechanical problems - only routine servicing and a flat. But, my front driver's seat is splitting in a few places. The car's got a big backside, so high speed road handling is not a stable as I'd like. But, it IS a sedan. And, a big one at that. U-turns aren't always made either. But, I got the 20th Anniversary edition, and I love the subtle fascia and body kit extras that come with it. I just wish there was more of a difference between it and the normal SE edition.
