After years of buying Toyota Camrys, I switched to the Nissan Maxima this year because of its much sharper styling and quality features -- such as the DVD Navigation System -- not available in the Camry. The car is solid, quiet, quick, fun to drive, and looks great.

Good but not great

This vehicle is probably a great car for a young adult, but for a middle aged person it is not smooth enough over rough roads. I can't wait to return to the luxury class I got used to. I am willing to give up the performance for the smooth ride.

I have been a Camry owner for the last 20 years. But I liked the luxury and handling of the Maxima and the price was right. It is my first real luxury car and I love all the bells and whistles. It is a pleasure to drive. The downers are very wide turning radius, back window is small and slanted reducing visibility and glare from dashboard on front windshield is distracting.

I have never before been in a car where anywhere you go heads are turning. This car has and does it all. This is my 5th nissan. I've owned saabs and toyotas I will never buy anything other than a nissan. They are great cars for a good value.

One year after purchase, my vehicle is as it was when I drove it out if the dealership. It has excellent performance, good fuel economy, is very reliable and fun to own and drive. The body style gets frequent comments about it's attractive appearance.
