40th anniversary 4DSC

Bought it primarily as an upgrade from my 2013 Maxima, which I loved. I was looking for the latest safety features and CarPlay compatibility. But the 40th anniversary package really makes it stand out! Quiet and comfortable, but plenty of power too especially in sport mode. Update: Owned it for a year now and still love it, especially the extra features like automatic speed limit detection and auto dimming high beams!

This is my second Nissan Maxima, and I am very impressed with the handling ability. It is a very quick and responsive vehicle. I also love the CV transmission you can ask for a smoother ride. A lot of people may say this car looks like a lot like all the other cars out there but they haven't driven one once they do it will set them apart. Also very roomy inside and a quiet ride. A very reliable vehicle.

Fun to drive with luxury and comfort, but lacks

Love the styling of the exterior and mostly the interior. Nice interior styling with great tech comparable to expensive luxury sedans. Horsepower is good but wish it came in a v6 turbo Trunk space needs better management Back seat a little cramped for larger passengers… taller than 5’ 9”. Wireless apple play a must

Insurance will hurt your pockets

I love my car but my insurance is $2800 a year with 28 years driving history, good credit, zero accidents/points and I live in the county in a small town. I’m being charged for the “what ifs”. They look at how much it “will” cost for replace something or cover a total loss. But, if I have to file a claim that totals an amount that receives “points” my insurance will then go up. So I’m being charged for the “what ifs” and if these happen I will be charged again. Buy an American made car. A 2021 Dodge challenger scat pack has cheaper insurance. If that puts things into perspective.
