This car has everything you would want and is in very good condition. I had an older model maxima until it was hit by a hit and run driver. This newer model has more features.Dec 31, 2022

165,000 Miles and she still runs like she is brand new, the nissan VQ engine is a phenomanon, with just 3 liter the twin cam V-6 is just a dream, the power sometimes even surprises me, punch her and she takes off, drive mellow and she is serene, the only major item I have replaced is the alternator at 150,00 miles, she starts on the first start everytime, check engine light came on once, had to replace one of my direct coils, and that's all the work I've done, had 1987 Nissan Maxima before, had till 200,00 miles and until my brother overheated her and blew the head gasket, 110 deg La heat, 8 highschool kids in the car, A/C full blast, and paying no attention to the temp guage, would have rebuilt the engine if I had the time, The maxima has and will always be the 4DSC, the four door sports car, in my mindOct 10, 2012

Overall, I like the car myself, especially for the options inside the car and also for the great comfort in ride and of course for the power of engine. By and large, it is a value for money car in many respects. May 18, 2012

Good Car has 220k miles on it. Only minor maintenance issues so far. It accelerates
quickly has good 40-70 time. So far its been not too expensive on ownership. It is
very fun to drive. Don't ever drive it after watching Fast and Furious though. It will
want to make you drive mush faster since it has that power and is considered a
sport sedan.Oct 25, 2011

car has a great fit and finish.all controls have a good solid feel.quality materials used that hold up well.styling of the vehicle never seems to date itself,has a sophisticated but sporty look for a four door!they recommend premium gas which does help with performance,but is not necessary.gas mileage is about 28-30 mpg combined driving.repairs are typically slightly higher than the average car,but reliability is worth the little extra!the car is fun to drive and the ride and performance are great.handles like a sports car when you run low profile michelin tires on it.had my maxima for 4 years and replaced the struts,drive axles,and egr valve.thats about it other than regular maintenance.runs smooth,quiet,and strong with 162000 miles!Apr 03, 2011

Before geting into specifics, car has 250k miles and except for general maintenance have had no issues (and bought w/ 90-100k miles). •Build Quality / •Cost of Ownership - excellent, excellent, excellent. Only negatives - b/c was built as sports car mileage and ease of driving when not in need of tighter / more responsive could be better. Jan 06, 2011

I love the style of my car, windows blacked out, paint black tail light blacked out, and the power which most people are surprised at what just stock maxima's do.
Dont really like gas mileage, its partly my faught with the porforance mods i have added to it.
Inside is all black leather, power everything heated seats, and of coarse the system, 3 12vs and 3400 watts of power.Nov 28, 2010

Performance- The car has a large engine for its size so it has alot of power when it is needed. I wish it had a 5-speed transmission for fuel saving. With the SE the suspension is slightly bumpy but it is tuned for performance so i dont mind.with Remoter start and remote windows. It was also one of the first sedans to have indipendent suspension
Build Quality-The car has some rust under the car that i am working to remove. Other than that the car is very solid.
Appearance- The cars exterior needed to be remodeled by 1999 but it still seemed to be ahead of its time.
Cost of ownership- This is where the praise ends. The car requires premium gas, and doesnt use it wisely. Also repairs are expensive although the good thing is they are rare.
Fun Factor- This car is very responsive in both acceleration, and hadling. It can also beat a V6 mustang of the same year :). I love this car and i hope it lasts me another 140000 miles.Jun 05, 2010

3L V6 engine, 190 HP blessed with a 5-speed manual
transmission is an absolute fun to drive car. Comes close to a
nice 4 door sports car. Highly recommended to anyone who
enjoys spirited driving and decent fuel economy.Feb 20, 2010

Build quality- No expensive repairs, just cosmetic or wearing break pads.
Appearance- Icelandic Pearl White, Low, Clean.
Fun Factor- very fun, great handling, and great reliability.

Its a great car for commuting, its pretty fun and handles well, yet is practical and comfortable for almost any situation. It is well built, and has good styling (for the time period). Gas is a little annoying, as it only gets 20 mpg as a sedan.Sep 23, 2009

I love this car. Man, it has amazing torque. It has Tein S-Tech lowering springs on 18" gunmetal rims. Injen CAI with clear corners and modified tails. 5 speed transmission. This car is more than just a grocery getter. This car is very fun to drive.Aug 21, 2009

1999 Nissan Maxima GLE. Excellant Car, 18' Rims JDM taillights clear bumper lights, Tein Suspension, Aftermarket CD player but still needs the 3.5 Motor Swap. Will be much faster after that. Clean Car ;) It's a little toy i like to play with .Jul 01, 2009

This is my second maxima, and I have decided that
they are some of the best cars out there. Great mix of
performance and practicality...strong, quick engine
that is very reliable and gets great gas mileage. Hasn't
needed any repairs, and is a very solidly built car.
Overall, I love this car and would recommend it to
anyone.May 10, 2009

Classic 4 door styling. A perfectly respectable V6 with torque aplenty. 5 speed = fun; the AT is spotty anyway. Easy to work on, no major repairs have been needed yet. Gas tank is big and it takes at least 92 octane unless you want to change the knock sensor regularly.Oct 20, 2008

Car was perfectwhen we got it, but performance has degraded slightly. The only other problems are minor, and have been caused by bad repairmen. It still looks good compared to the new cars. I am a happy person because I do own this car, a 1999 Nissan Maxima GLE sport edition.Sep 20, 2008

I bought the car used two years ago. Since then it has not needed anything except normal maintence. It is very reliable, handles well, has a V6 engin, and it looks nice! It is a great car to drive. My husband enjoys it almost more than I do. He likes the acceleration.Jul 31, 2008

I love my 1999 Nissan Maxima, this car handles like it's on rails due to the suspension mods I've done, and it's going to be looking much better due to some new mods coming soon. The car is very rewarding overall, but still has a few drawbacks, auto only, small cup holders, and a lacking aftermarket are really the only things holding it back.Jul 29, 2008

Powerful, stock she had 193HP basically the same as a stock mustang and camaro. Can out accelerate most four cylinder cars but she came with Bose audio stock plus power heated seats and mirrors. Gas mileage is amazing for the power and even when you' drive her spiritedly. Leather seat side bolsters are a little far for someone of my size. For a grocery getter family car she hauls and corners very well, much more so if you modify the suspension!Jul 14, 2008

I inherited this car from my husband
>> drive is still great even tho the car is almost 9 yrs old, but we only have about 65k on the car.
>> very minimal maintenance, does not give us any probs.
>> acceleration and braking is still great, still a powerful car!
>> BOSE system still sounds excellent.
>> large trunk space, prob even bigger than the 7.
>> spacious front and back seat, 3 adults can seat in the back comfortably.Mar 28, 2008

I owned a 1999 Maxima, manual transmission, SE for three years. It was a great car with plenty of room inside for three car seats across the back seat! Though the styling was a little plain Jane, the engine was a blast and it got good mileage on the highway. It was a very comfortable ride.Jun 23, 2007
What users have asked
my car is shaking and vibrating and it gets worse when i accelerate.
It only does this when i am driving. It is coming from the front passenger side of the car. I thought it was one of the tires, however I took both tires off and inspected them and they are fine. it started off about two weeks ago but now its really bad. any ideas on what it could be?

Would a 2000 Nissan Maxima OBX catback exhaust work on my 99 Nissan Maxima?
I have a 99 Nissan Maxima and have been looking at obx cat backs but they don't make exhaust for that year but they make it for 2000 up so would it work on my year of car since I'm pretty sure it's the same engine and I hope same exhaust fitment.

Alternator Not Charging Battery, need help on charging kit
Currently , I've had a issue to where my alternator is not charging my battery. I've already replaced a few things before this such as Starter Alternator Battery The new battery I purchased was a gold one and the car died a month a later and can only be revied by a jump. After inspecting the battery at AutoZone they told me the alternator looked fine as well as the battery but there could be an electric fuse causing the alternator to not charge the battery. Is it that or is the alternator just bad? What kind of charging kit could I purchase to swap out the charging /ground lines if it is the charging system?
