Is this a GLE or a GXE?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...&category=6400

I am kind of confused because it has gxe wheels i believe but it has leather seats?

Also, I think this car can go swimming, look at those gills!

How do I know which trim level I am looking at?
The 4th gen Maxima was offered in three trim levels for the US market:
GXE "The essential Maxima"
SE "The Sportiest Maxima"
GLE "The luxurious Maxima"

All trim levels have the same engine, so performance differences between them are pretty much nil. The best way to tell which trim level you have is to decode the VIN Plate. This is due to much part swapping and trim upgrading, even transmission swaps that can be done.

TO DECODE THE VIN PLATE:
Raise your hood. Look for a shiny metal identification tag fastened to the passenger side of firewall. The top row is the Vehicle Identification Number, starting with J. The second row is model information. The first five characters are BLHUL. The sixth character is the trim level designator, defined as follows:
E = GXE
G = GLE
V = SE

There are some feature differences that can help you determine the trim level on site. Keep in mind that most of these can be changed aftermarket by the owner, but as we know the VAST majority of Maximas on the street are bone stock...

My guess would be GLE and he had aftermarket wheels but kept them and picked up some cheap steel ones to sell with the car.

Or he just invested all his money in the body kit and didn't have money for wheels or springs or struts or a freakin hose and bucket.

I'd pass.

All that with steelies and caps......and it's priced high, I don't care diddly about the body kit or the dual exhaust, take it to a dealer and they will DETRACT for all that $hit. It's funny, I just ran across this and was thinking about it....I think he can keep it!!

Yeah, this guy clearly isn't stating the truth. Look at the way he wrote everything too in his description. Seriously, would anyone really buy this POS. It's not written very friendly, as a matter of fact, it looks like he's demanding. Let him keep his crap, or junk it.

gxe and gle have chrome door handles and i dont think that 95 comes with those wheels. those wheels are 97-99 gxe wheels. im not really sure maybe u should just write the seller. i think that would be the easiest way.

if that's true...then the person who buys it (if there actually is a buyer) can rescind and get the money back because of misrepresentation.
