First, I'd like to address the one "problem" that all gear heads harp about - the CVT transmission. It's Excellent! No issues whatsoever in driveability or performance. Instant acceleration, no droning, no problems. Very comfortable seats, beautiful interior. The exterior styling is very cool and distinctive, although it may not be to everyone's taste. I had a 2015 Acura TLX, 4 cylinder base model before this car. Since I didn't opt for the 6 cylinder TLX, it would unfair to compare acceleration. Could never warm up to the TLX because of the bland exterior and cost cutting. I am most pleasantly surprised by this car. The SV trim has everything you need, except that the standard radio in the SV isn't that good, so if I had to do it again I probably would have gone to the SL which has a better Bose unit (although with the price difference I could go aftermarket with the audio and end up better than the Bose). There are crazy deals going on until the end of February 2017, so hurry up and get one! Leased 36 months, $399/month including tax, no money down except for first month and title transfer, $1,995 cash back to pay off lease on Acura.

I love this car it really gets with the program and consistently gets over 30 mph but I do live way out in the country no city driving.I like the CVT transmission and love the all leather interior. Your vision out the rear sides could be better.The instrument cluster had to be replaced about 34000 miles but warranty took care of it quickly and gave me a good loaner for the two days it took to get the new one and install it. I continue to love the car especially on the country roads that I mostly drive on. Now in 8/2019 I still love to drive this car and have not had one problem in the last year, it was a severe winter here and the car impressed me how it could get around and stop on icy roads, probably will keep for 3 more years.Its 2022 and I still love this car have added better tires which brought the mileage up to a consistent 32 mpg ,have had no problems in the last few years the car also is very stable on ice and snow.The interior still looks new after 60,000 miles. The car now has over 120,000 miles and still is in perfect condition and is still at 30 MPG consistantly.We haul all the grand kids around with it on long trips all over the NW and have had no problems even the original battery still tests good.I would consider buying another if they still made them. I Feb of 2025 I traded the Maxima in on a new Titam ProX-4 but I miss the Maxima a lot it was a very nice reliable car and great milege in my rural area.

I don't recall if the car had a "cracking" noice when breaking to go in reverse or breaking as i go over speed bumps. The car had an "engine support".. replaced. The cracking sound went away for a few days, but it returned again. I have 20,000 miles in the car now. I just hope it doesn't run out of warranty before I am satisfy with the repairs needed.

this car is my wifes dream car. she loves body style and and the over-all performance . but on a recent road trip we encountered some snow and patches of ice on interstate 80 in Nebraska, and each time we hit a patch of ice, the car seemed to want to bring the rear-end forward. we were the slowest car on the road and had no clue as to why this was happening. tire pressures were sufficient , the wind was trailing, and we were carrying ample weight. after talking to a service manager and hearing of no probable causes, we have since learned of other customers with similar experiences. I would suggest that anyone considering buying this model or an Altima look into this problem. I am thoroughly disappointed with the handling of this car and will be looking at other means of transportation.

Very dependable. Front passenger seat sits very low making it harder to get in and out. Otherwise a great car. This is our fourth maxima. Enough said
