Haha...Yea, I bought her a 1991 maxima Se and its about to die so i wanna toss that for cheap and I would think she would like this. She wants a nicer car and here it is. I hope the car turns out nice. If this isnt a nice maxima then I think I'm gonna give her my s4.

Thanks for the help

let us know what it looks like and what condition its in after u check it out.

u can also check out www.autotrader.com to get a real world pricing in your area. KBB is pretty vague and not personalized to your local market if you ask me.

The engine will be fine, but ask them about the tranny history. Ask if they had it's fluid change and make sure it's not slipping. Most people need a tranny rebuilt around 100k miles.

did the previous owner put all of that stuff in it ( leather, bose, etc ) sounds like a gle. Neways sounds like you got a good deal, glad your happy with it... but yeah definately check out that tranny. I had to rebild mine at about 150,xxx. Good luck, and enjoy the car.

P.S.- oh, did she like it... or have any thing to say about it?

just cuz a GXE has leather doesnt mean the owner put it in... factory option, i believe there was an option called "leather package"

I tell you what tho..... I have never had wilder sex than in a maxima. That back seat is like having a 3 ring circus tent. You can do anything back there. plus, the roof has some padding. Saves on the G/F headaches

Only down side is if you get one with the spoiler on the trunk lid. Then you just have to use the hood.
