pearl white baby :woot: my car looks so nice in full sun, you can go longer without washing it, and i probably have a thousand little scratches on it, but haha you cant see them unless u go really really close

IMO i think red looks pretty nice, but i wouldnt get it cuz people and cops would easily notice the car when im :wall: ya.........

1. When I think of a maxima nicely styled sports sedan w/ balls. not an all out sports car. The maxima is definatley quick but not as quick as other cars you might see in a Bright red "crimson" color. I honestly cant think of another 4 door sports sedan that has ever come in a bright red color like that. In my mind if car is that bright it should be a two door and be able to smoke most things moving (stock of course).

If they had of put a bigger engine or more hp in the 99 it would be different.

Wisky97SE Aug 5, 2004 02:32 PM

Crimson Blaze is by far my favorite color offered on the 4th gen Maxima. I think my car would look so much better and stand out more in Crimson Blaze.

sagemistse Aug 5, 2004 02:36 PM

I actually was about to say i would rather a burgandy max than a crimson blaze max. but sagemist green takes them all

White Maxima's RULE over all!
:king2:

Brudaddy Aug 5, 2004 03:19 PM

I guess that is why I like it.....uniqueness.
I have all of my badges and a lot of people just don't know what it is because of the color.
I like that.

I see your point though. *shrugs*

1. What about the Pontiac GTP? They made that is bright red.
2. Nissan is coming out with a bright red Altima SE-R.
3. Sentra Spec-V SE-R is made in bright red.
4. 3rd gen Maximas were made in bright red.
5. VW Jetta VR6
6. VW Jetta 1.8t
7. VW Golf 1.8t
8. VW Golf VR6
...just to name a few.

sagemistse Aug 5, 2004 03:25 PM

Are Jettas,Golfs,Sentras,or Altimas in the same class as Maximas? I do see what you mean. I didnt think of it that way... it is unique if nothing else.

monty95 Aug 5, 2004 03:57 PM

An Altima SE-R? ooooh.....that'd be something

Maximus_95 Aug 5, 2004 04:05 PM

nope, i love my sage mist green. its just as rare as bigfoot! =)

big deal. it is still a altima. plus it wont be faster than a maxima esspecially the 5.5 gen. that is the fastest maxima ever built. a atima se-r wont even match those numbers. it might match the 6 gen maxima numbers but then i dont consider the 6 gen maxima a maxima cause it is built on the altima platform. so basically it is a altima with a different body and a different name.

Why do you mod yours so much then?
Why not just sell it and get a color that you would be more happy with?

no way i'd sell my car. i'm gonna have some custom bodywork done it pretty soon (shaving door moldings, trunk keyhole, antenna) and getting a bodykit and a new front end and then it'll be time to make it Daytona Blue (350z blue color)

:)

I looked at maximas for a month before I bought this one.

The second I saw this pic in the ad for my car, I knew I was gonna buy it:

The #1 question I get when people ask about my car - "Is it black...? :nervous:

Wills98MaxSE Aug 5, 2004 04:49 PM

2 words - Pearl White!

1FSTMAX Aug 5, 2004 05:16 PM

I like my beige max..

maxtuner96 Aug 5, 2004 05:39 PM

My Maxima
 
I've got a 96 SE in "Granite Pearl". I love that color. Its more of a dark grey, but at times it looks black, navy blue, and even purple in certain light. I think its one of the best colors, along with my mom's 97 SE in "Sagemist Green", that the Maximas came in...also the rarest.

Until you drive through a construction zone where they are paving and painting lines. :sprint2: to ODT (Oregon).

vsamoylov Aug 5, 2004 06:23 PM

a rare color is ruby pearl. that is what i had until i repainted my car.i took the paint from the 350z. it is called brickyard. looks so nice.

fishpony Aug 5, 2004 06:58 PM

MaximaSE96 Aug 5, 2004 06:58 PM

thats certainly a rare color. i'm not sure if i've ever seen one like that :gotme:

1996blackmax Aug 5, 2004 08:27 PM

1996 Superblack, would not have it any other way :) .

Vad3K Aug 5, 2004 09:02 PM

i have gold 98, but wanted it to be either while, silver, or black. silvers with body kits and clear bumpers just look amazing.

Zack342 Aug 5, 2004 09:29 PM

i used to love super black but i see to many of them. i have never seen another maxima in my color Sherwood Green baby. SE-L only color...

kbmaxima Aug 5, 2004 09:54 PM

black black black. its a pita to keep clean but the couple minutes i spend staring at it after a wash, polish, wax.. so sexy..

Nick7455 Aug 5, 2004 09:57 PM

Does anyone have a pic of a hot sterling mist...I remember someone here on the org has one with the 2nd gen altezzas and it just makes me wanna repaint my car or just move to his state but anyways by far I would say sterling mist when it is nice and clean.... :grinno:

Sherwood Green along with Concord Mist and Crimson Blaze are the rarest 4.5 gen colors I believe. I would be interested to see how many of each color were made/sold. Anyone have any numbers?

Irish Aug 5, 2004 11:25 PM

i heard somewhere that there was only like 900 crimson blaze produced. probably more than that but im not sure... all i know is RED RULES ALL, and since i have red I RULE ALL, that dont have red as well....:D

never seen one of those either, got any pictures?

ManualMaxima Aug 5, 2004 11:55 PM

Wisky97SE his color is the best. rosewood! that is what i want. wanna trade colors?

Nismotic Aug 5, 2004 11:57 PM

I had rosewood to begin with (not my taste at all).

But i think my Metallic Neptune blue is pretty nice =o)

i would love to have crimson blaze and sterling mist if i could.

ManualMaxima Aug 6, 2004 12:02 AM

Metallic Neptune blue yes it is a very nice color especally matched with carbon fiber like chestons was. very nice. i would trade m colro for that.

Nismotic Aug 6, 2004 12:04 AM

a carbon fiber hood would look excellent, but 400+ for one isn't in my budget nowadays.

thanx manualmax.

and what ever happened to maximadriver.com i used to be on that site all day long before i made the switch to the org

ManualMaxima Aug 6, 2004 12:11 AM

yea i wonder to ,he like dissapeared like all the other big people. i duno whatever happened to his max. i think he parted most of the aftermarket stuff.

when i got mine, his how-to's were the best.

sagamax Aug 6, 2004 12:14 AM

yeah all the big people moved on to bigger and better cars once cheston got his 350z it was down hill for maximadriver.com.....i wonder what mods he has on 350z i bet its pimp as hell

ManualMaxima Aug 6, 2004 12:19 AM

i think he has a site for z's i am not sure, and i think he be boosted!
