yea we do!

 

why does my se only have a speedo that says 125 and not 145?

 

maybe because you have a VG engine(125mph speedo) and not a VE(145mph speedo)......

 

you can point out another Maxima from a mile away in a parking lot with a 1000 cars in it. Before I got my Maxima, I never noticed how many Maximas there are in the vegas area. Now, that I have one, I see them all over the place.

 

Im with you on that, I can spot any generation maxima or a cop car when its still a dot on the horizon.

 

you constantly press your throttle, just to hear your intake make that sucking noise.

 

That is so true. Now it is like I see a family member!

 

VE guys get even more play than just SE guys!!!!!!!!!

 

you can't stop fixing and modding your car. If you hear a noise, you freak out. If you see a scratch on your oil cap...it has to be replaced. If you are bored, you will do a brake job.

 

VE's are good!

 

... you tell your parents you are broke and need gas money but some how another modd shows up at the door

 

when doing something you can tell when a maxima is being started in a parking lot or driveway without even looking. Or you can tell the exhaust sound as it goes by.

I am very good at this one. one time i was laying down in my apartment and a car outside started up and reved his engine andi told my girlfriend it was a 3rd gen maxima and she laughed and then looked. guess what it was my car geting stolen! LOL j/k it was someone visiting the building and i was right, a 92 se.

you can tell your friends which year/trim/tranny/engine a max has just by looking at the grille and rims and watching the car start moving(only needed for 89-94 SE). then its even more amazing when you can pick out the SE posers (GXE w/spoiler...3rd gen only).

 

this is so sad....i feel so close to the 3rd gen forum now

 

GXE owners don't seem to have the same feeling though. . . sigh

 

You stop to look at your car and just think... "Damn! thats beautiful!"

 

or when you see a big huge nasty scratch and ding like today you go AUGH!!!!!!! oh well, i'm still faster than most people

 

Gotta Agree. Can spot max's/Crown Vics (usually cops) far away, tell a maxima by hearing it start (3rd and 4th gen), tell trim and year (89-91 / 92-94) with a few glances, me and some other passengers yell "Maxima!" when another is spotted (rarely in this area).

 

When you train your friends to refer to maximas by their generations. "there goes a 3rd gen!"

 

I have actually done that! i'm teaching my friends that maxima's are good... honda's bad!

You know you're a maxima driver if...
someone asks you if you have a ride home and instead of just saying "yes" you say "yea i got my <u><b>Maxima</b></u> outside!"

heres another....if you try to speed up to un-modded Max's and show off your mods!

and another when you park next to an unmodded Max in the parking lot and remember how it was before you started modding!

 

park right next to another maxima in a parking lot. Thinking yours is better because it has mods , SE and theirs not. What a great feeling.

I get the SE part... but unfortunately not the mod part... waiting to get a 5spd to do that!

 

You know you're a maxima driver if...
you are bored at home and instead of reaching for the tv remote, you grab your car keys and run to your car

 

... and the number 1 way to know if "you know you're a maxima driver if... "
you're posting on the "You know you're a Maxima driver if..." post!

 

or when u see an unmodded max, and to your friends u say...."whos got clear corners and who doesnt"......yea i dont do that either i was just kidding

 

..when your friends begin driving maximas because of your influence hehehe, 2 of my friends so far, 1 is considering...

 

man thats a classic right there!!

 

you get bored and open your hood and just look and think about what mods you should be doing. . . .

 

people ask you what year the car is and then act surprised when you tell them it's a 93..

with 160k miles....

then you chirp third as you're leaving them in the dust..

 

your engine goes out..you replace it.
then your tranny goes out....and instead of calling the junk yard to come and pick your car up..you call and ask for a tranny

 

You guys are good! I pretty much apply to all of these.

 

you've ever asked yourself if your car is the only import on earth that no one makes a decent looking body kit for...

you think the rear of your car is more attractive than the front....

you bought your car thinking there would be tons of aftermarket support...

 

Which pretty much means you're a maxima driver

 

you drive by a wall and without thought roll down the window, and down shift into 2nd to hear the growl of the CAI at its best

 

hahaha...tunnels and empty garages work just as good!

 

we also got 3 liters grumbling not 1.9 shrieking

 

or if while you're at a car show, and your hood is up, 2 old men stop by and look at it. (it happened!, the honda guys ragged me so bad for it!)
