Beautiful car!
I absolutely LOVE this car! We got the SE with cloth interior and a sunroof. It is a fun car to drive and I'm the idiot driving around smiling all the time! The powerful engine is magnificent and it handles really well. This is my first NEW car and first time Maxima owner. I don't think I will ever get another type of vehicle again!
Worth the wait
I have wanted a Nissan Maxima since I was 22, and I am now 27 and finally can afford to own one, and all I can say is it's worth the wait! I love to drive it, I've only had it for a week, and already have 500 miles on it. The power s enough to keep me interested, and I have a 12 second Mustang. The tranny is great, and it is ohh sooo smooth on the hi-way.
its a great car
its has a very powerfull v6 and verry comfortable its fuel economy is great. nissans build quality cars that last forever
Comments on Maxima GLE
Owning this car has been a generally satisfying experience. I am VERY impressed with my dealer's response to warranty situations. Things to fix iclude: Fix SLIPPERY steering wheel on GLE model ... dangerous!!! Needs more comfortable driver's seat with more secure hip gripping ... tendency to slide around on turns with leather upholstery. Less jouncy suspension option.
2002 Maxima SE 6-speed
Had this car for two months now (2000 miles). Replaced a 1998 Honda Accord EX- V6 Coupe with this car. I am very satisfied with the ride even though is is not as smooth as the Accord Coupe was at high speeds (+70MPH). The clutch motion and engine are extremely smooth. The 6-disc sound system is par at best. The rear deck subwoofer sounds muddy and can only handle half the power without distorting. Wind noise at moderate speeds is noticable but bearable. In short, the Maxima has the ergonomics and all of the comforts that an average commuter is looking for; not exactly a Lexus, but the performance and lower price make this car a great buy.
