Used Nissan Maxima for Sale near British Columbia

Considering it was the newly redisinged, got a faceleift, it was amazing. Bigger, more spacious, more power, it seemed like a great buy. Like any new car, the car was great as any new car would be, but this generation was notorious for not testing the engine estensively to find the kinks you normally would expect a manufacturer to find. Notorious for having bad maf sensors, and owners found out the hard way. Everything else about the car, is strong, solid. Reliable engine, and good transmission. I average 24 mpg, with a 3.0 v6. That's awsome, and it's fun to drive. Makes for a great family car, while keeping the fun to drive factor.

Contrary to what most people think, the Maxima is a damn solid car. Coming from a racing background, it has a very good chassis for a 4 door sedan. My only two complaints, which could be solved by one request is if it was rear wheel drive and turbocharged. But we dont get that luxury that they do in Japan (Cefiero). If the maxima were even just rear wheel drive with the same VQ powerplant, it would be a classic. It was extremely convienient, had loads of room both in the cabin and the trunk, was pretty quick, almost as fast as my previous Mustang. Would've sounded good with some mods but as a daily commuter, i didn't feel the need to do anything to it. Overall, i would take this over the mustang any day. If you're looking at these cars, maintenece can be a bit bothersome and costly, so make sure the used one you buy has been properly cared for. As well as model year, the 2000-2002 i believe were the 222 hp and the car weighed 3100 lbs. (pretty light for how big it is, helped it handle really well). Then in 03- it's the same body style but they added the 3.5 instead of the 3.0 which also came with a 6 speed. The hp went up to 255, but i feel like the car's balance went sort of out the window just a touch with the extra nose weight. My model i feel was right on the verge of being too heavy in the front, but it was still a blast, you could get little rear end slides with agressive cornering. The extra power and weight of the 03 made it easier to overload the front tires.

Perfromance = Great stock! Good car for the wife and still have fun with it when it is your turn to drive. I have had NO problems with this car! Engine light has NEVER been on in this car. Love the looks and color - dark gray I have to put premium gas in it but it's well worth it! Fun low maintenance car!

It's a surprising performer for what it is, which is an over powered grocery getter. The engine is smooth and quiet but pulls like a semi. The overall cost is not terrible, could get a bit better mileage, but parts are fairly inexpensive and it's not too hard to work on.

Absolutely love this car! Unfortunately I'm moving and need to sell it. Great gas mileage, excellent brakes! They are practically new. Good solid build. Has a lot of power but gives a very smooth ride. Fun and easy to drive!
