Used 2000 Nissan Maxima for Sale near Seattle, WA
Nissan's personal mid-size luxury car that promises a sporty performance, the 2000 Maxima emerges this year fully redesigned in an effort to stay competitive with the Accord and Camry. One way it does this is by increasing its length and adding two inches to the wheelbase. The 108 inches expands interior leg and shoulder room, make it more spacious and with a bigger trunk (15.1 cubic inches) than its closest rivals. The 3.0-liter V6 engine also gets a 32-hp boost up to 222-hp, again beating out the ratings of the Camry and Accord.
The 2000 Nissan Maxima comes in base GXE, sporty SE, and luxury GLE trims. A 5-speed manual is standard on all but the GLE, where you'll find a 4-speed automatic. The auto tran is optional on the SE and GXE. A retuned sports suspension is stiffer for better handling and less shudder, and the performance tires (ranging from 15 to 17-inch) improve road grip. ABS brakes and dual front airbags are standard across the line, with side airbags now available as an option. Traction control is also offered as an extra with the auto tran. A new grille, lights, and body shape offers a sporty, aerodynamic look overall.
Even the base GXE is well equipped with power features, but the GLE adds leather seats, automatic climate control, wood accents, and power driver's seat. The sports-oriented SE carries a rear spoiler, 5-spoke alloy wheels, foglights, and black trim on the grille. Heated seats and a sunroof are available on all models. Owners seemed to like the new style of the 2000 Maxima, and say the ride is smoother and quieter, thanks to new sound insulation. The extra engine power is noticeable, especially with acceleration, and the interior is roomy and comfortable, though the backseat is a bit cramped. Peeling paint is a minor problem, but the 2000 Maxima had frequent problems with the ignition coils and oxygen sensors.
4.4 Overall rating
(66 reviews)aw yeah. I love my car. Drives like a champ. Acceleration is pretty fast and the brakes are touchy which i love. The wheels shakes a lil around 85-90 but im over it. No squeaks and only rattles when I crank up the bass but i fixed that for the most part. The interior is all leather which is nice and i like the look of the outside.
In general it is a good car to have 1. Mechanically reliable, good engine, good transmission, recently changed tires, never gave me a problem on highway. 2. V6 engine is fast to accelerate on a short highway ramp. 3. leather interior, not have to worry about spill. 4. Sun roof, nice to drive around in summers. 5. heated seat and power seat, very convenient to use. 6. Bose stereo, necessary for musics and radios on a long-distance travel. 7. large enough size, give you more safety and more space inside.
We bought our Maxima in 2002 with 34k on it. Very sporty handling and acceleration. At 75k, SVC Engine light started coming on. Traced to faulty firing cells, car would run but miss and stumble. Nissan acknowledged this problem, but would not recall car. $80 apiece times six to replace+labor. This car DOES NOT like Ethanol fuel. I have to run a tank of non-ethanol every 3rd fillup to keep O2 sensors happy. Replaced sensor behind cat. converter as ethanol fuel creates an overrich condition on rear 02 sensor. Mileage is between 26-29 depending of fuel used. Also has odd sized tires, most stores don't stock them. I'm 6'2" and getting in and out is not the easiest. Car does not have a fuel filter, if it plugs up, the fuel pump assembly has to be replaced
fully loaded: leather, Bose premium sound system, sunroof, 230bhp and 217 ft-lbs of torque from a Nissan VQ30DE-K engine....needs some tints and a few performance mods...new tires, starter, and h.I.d. headlights, GAB airbox...car is washed and waxed once every two weeks, detailed once a month, and claybar'd twice a year
I like beautiful design, comfort, premium sound, very good engine, wonderful body and color, heated seats that I used often. It is very reliable car. The acceleration of this car is smooth and fast. Car is very maneuverable. Easy to park.
