My wife and I own a 1997 Nissan Maxiam SE with close to 100,000 miles on it. There has only been two things wrong with it (Belts broke ($36 fix) and alternator (Factory Recall). So far (knock on wood), it's a great car. This is why we decided to spend the extra buck and go with a 2002 Maxima SE with every avaiable option including the navigation system (which rocks). I recomend this car to anyone. They truely are great cars.

Great car!! Near luxury car with the performance of a sports car. If you are looking for a car that will take you from 0 to 60 in under 7 seconds, has room for 5, has the one of the world's best V6 engines, an impeccable reliability record and has luxury amenities to boot all for under $30K then look no further than the Max!!

this is my 2nd maxima. i really enjoy driving this car. it is very fast, and rides smooth. i looked at the acura tl s-type and the infinity i35. both were very similar to the maxima. the maxima though was thousands cheaper. i never had a problem with my first maxima. that is why i chose this car again. reliability!!!!

The car is great but when you hit a bump, it doesn't feel much different than my Camaro. It handles exceptionally well, accelerates well, but the bumps get ya. Also, the transmission feels "weak" and seems to stall when shifting.
