I think the max was switched with a 89-91 to a 92+ but the quality is so crappy I can't tell for sure.

i keep looking at it over and over... i dont see the switch... lol and why would they switch it... im sure the scene took no longer than the rest of the night lol, if it took 2 days then that might be why it was switched but, how would it have been switched if it was?

did i make any sense? i dont want to retype

For anyone who can't pick it out, the car changes from a GXE to and SE. Both are 92-94's. They probably shot on different days and needed to find a Maxima to park back there. Or else the owner of the car worked on set and upgraded between shoots

Well, obviously it hasn't helped the 3rd gens any. No one will buy my car and it doesn't cost nearly as much as a Supra...

correct about the maxima being changed from a GXE to a SE but as for the year of se you are wrong from what i can see its a 89-91 SE one if you look closely to the tail lights there the ones dat are outer clear with the red on the inner side and also if u can see the center plate on the maximas rear end u can see its the black and not the 92-94 SE center tail center plate. and from as good as i can see the rims there juz the stock SE rims missing the center plate to them. i beleave.

Yeah I noticed the second time watching. 92-94 SE Tails, Spoiler, and the Wheels appeared to be too squared to be the GXE rims with centers taken off, think they were aftermarket.

That's a weird choice of aftermarket wheels... They look identical to the GXE wheels except square holes instead of rounded holes.

I've got GXE rims with the centers off, looks the same to me.
