I found these pictures off of a website that has f**ked up maximas.....care to comment on these pictures?

That's not exactly what they meant when they said "Lift back"

You think the driver of this lived? I think NOT!

Yeah...This dude probably died too....

This guy just got plain "Rear-Ended"!

What do you think? Do maxima's rule in crashes or what? They sure make you go out and run right into a light pole, eh? Dayum!

yup...i spent like 3 or 4 hours looking at all the f**ked up maximas. It's really incredible what happened to some of those maximas (especially the RARE "RED" "SE" maximas). Some of them even had fires in them that apears started from the stereo wiring or the engine (could be both)? To anyone else, I suggest you go to this site and check it out. It's like sick pleasure. Just don't let it happen to your wonderful maximas...please!!! SAY NO TO CRAPS-IMA!(crapped maxima)

Don't let these pics fool you about the

safety of maximas. These seem like some horific accidents. Like that last white pic with the blood.....looks like it got rear ended at 90 mph by a truck while it parked. Most cars don't even look 1/2 as bad as when they do the 40 mph offset crash test. When the roof/car bends like that...these are some unatural forces. Deff....sick pleasure....yuk.

actually....pic one and two(the same car)...

don't look like an accident. It looks like something....VERY HEAVY landed on the car...like a massive tree or something. There is no rear end smash and the hood is not buckled....but wheels buckled under the load. Looks like a crane landed on it. No air bag deployment and the keys aren't in the dash.

interesting.......

Although not a Maxima. Was actually a Skyline GTR. Crashed at 300 km/h. Along with a RX-7. They were racing.
'If you want i can post the pic of the RX-7 too.

it's scary to think that some fool who can't drive

could do that to my baby. if something like that happens to her i don't know what i would do... of course i might be dead but i'll be in heaven not knowing what to do.

i wanted to post this before but i guess i clicked on the wrong link.

If your car is lowered, little chance of rolling over I think. The closest I came to rolling a Max was my old '87 with factory rims and stock springs, I put it up on two wheels. If it had been lowered, I doubt it would had came up like it did. Question, speaking of fires (as above), do the 3rd gen Max's have the problem with fuel leaks around the engine and injectors like the 1st and 2nd gens do? My '87 had to go into the shop and have all new injectors, rail, everything fuel related replaced free, safety recall.

any car will roll over if you hit gas or a curb sideways at a fast speed.On pavement you will slide. I did not roll over when I lost control of my car doing a buck ten(720+ tractor trailer+guard rails= totaled max)For what that max went through it was not bad looking and I had not even a scratch. Check home page and see my poor max
