96 Nissan Maxima Review — Performance is great i love the acceleration of the car. 0-60 in about 4 or 5 seconds. Braking is out standing as soon as u touch that pedal the car starts slowing down. Handling is great if the car was alittle bit wider it would just be amazing. The car has needed some repairs. The EGR Valve was replace along with Water pump, Harmonic Balancer. Other then the few repairs its a great car. The Appearance is amazing. Love the leather interior and the black out side. The SE has a wing that makes the car look alot better. Gas Mileage is around 17city 20 highway. Fun Factor this car is fun to drive. love driving the car. Primary Use: Family transportation

My 2nd Maxima — Just a great 2nd car to have, no major problems. Performance wise very sound small V6. Beats all of the asians in rice burner civics. Great fun and not that bad gas mileage. Interior could be better, some weird texture contrasts. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

It's All I Have Right Now To Drive. — My Maxima is not hot and sassy like my dream car; but it handles the road well it has lots of power and pretty good gas mileage for a 6-CYL 320hp engine. It's got the best break system that I have ever had on a car. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

1996 Nissan Maxima — For what it is....a mid-level, modestly-priced Japanese 4-door sedan....the Maxima is an impressive car; and doesn't receive half the credit it deserves. Manual transmission models from 1995-2003 were (for their time) one of the best-kept secrets.....due to a very good power-to-weight ratio and and industry-leading V6 engine that was shared with the 300ZX sports car. Handling isn't great, due to a simple solid-beam rear axle(to keep weight down), and soft shock absorbers. SE models, with a better wheel / suspension package, are fun to drive; and don't exhibit as much understeer as the comparable (but incredibly front-heavy) Accord V6. For its time, the Maxima was the only Japanese-built 4-door sports sedan with a V6 engine and a manual transmission. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

Nissan Rocks.. If You Disagree I'll Take You On 99 — awesome performance for a family sedan, takes the corners and sticks.. needs to stay flat. can definitely be a super car with minor upgrades. I'd take a vq over vtec all day everyday. im glad i got a maxima... i love her to death Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

1996 Nissan Maxima — Fun to drive Leather interior Heated seats Bose Stereo system Acceleration Body is still in excellent shape - had to redo the wheel well edges and spoiler mount Power sunroof, seats, windows, a/c Engine is very responsive Excellent handling With only 150,000 KM's - should be good for a while |
