Bought it new in May of '04. So far I've put over 60K trouble free miles on her. Only bad thing so far was replacing the Goodyear Eagles at 250 bucks a peice. Ouch!

Very fun to drive I would buy another one! smooth ride on the freeway and great handling in the hills, brakes on a dime!!! the acceleration is very good as well....sound system is OK...However gas mileage is not what i expected.

the up grades and style 4 new rims and tires the interior is in great shape the carbon fiber look make this Nissan maxima stand out against all 04 maxima the roof wing also makes a difference, a great car.

Ok, so I had my Maxima for 1 year and the only reason I sold it was because the turning radius sucked. Very roomy interior and lots of pep in the engine. The car was powerful, stylish, and fun to drive, but not being able to do a standard u-turn really irritated me. And some interior compartments were cheaply assembled.
