1999 Nissan Maxima Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 1999 Nissan Maxima have a very positive view of their cars, highlighting the spacious and comfortable interior, impressive performance, and reliability. Many drivers appreciate the V6 engine's power and fuel efficiency, as well as features like the Bose sound system. However, some noted that as the cars age, they may require cosmetic care and can sometimes struggle with gas mileage, especially in city driving."
Overall just a great car from the good people of Nissan. A quality product that never goes wrong unless you treat it bad!!!!!!!!!!!
January 9, 2008car 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!
April 3, 2011I 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.

March 28, 2008165,000 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 mind
October 10, 2012Good 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.
October 25, 2011Performance- v6 3.0L. FWD. very fast, people underestimate it 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. Cost- Great gas mileage for a v6, i get 24miles per gallon, which suits me well.
February 17, 2010The best car I have ever owned!!! Low maintance. VERY FASSSST for a 4 Door Sedan. Award winning V6 DOHC 3.0l. This is the 3rd Maxima we have owned. VERY fun to drive LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!!! Bose sound system is the best in the world!!!
November 24, 2009This 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, 2009Its a good car and even though its been used by person after person she still holds up. I recommend it full heartedly to anyone looking for a family vehicle but wants a little more zip to go with the safety.
March 15, 2015this car is very roomy has all kinds of great features also made by one of the worlds best auto makers with the 3.0 v6 it has a lot more power than is needed out of a sedan but on the same hand gets about 30 miles to the gallon
