Rare Maximas?

Well first off i have a few questions about rare maximas? Are there any rear wheel drive or 2 door maximas that have been made by nissan. I heard that there has been a 2 door but nissan stopped almost right after production. Is this true.

Now for my main question!!! I have only seen 2 Cherry Red maximas and they both live by me. Did nissan produce cherry red maximas or are these most likely repainted. I really hate red but on a maxima it looks pretty nice. One guy is selling it. Ill try to take a few pics sometime of it and post it!

The red ones are either the Rosewood color or the 99 SE-Limiteds. Those are the only two red/burgundy type shades that were made at the factory.

No there are no rear wheel drive 4th Gens (that Nissan made).

I have seen a rare Maxima... I knew this kid that had a white SE... 4th gen body style, but he said it is a 94. His interior was very strange... He had black leather, but the pattern of the leather 'squares' where not like a 4th gen at all... they looked like a 3rd gens leather pattern. He said the car belonged to his dad before him and every thing has was stock.

Oh I remember seeing pics of those old cefiros with the 2.0 liter version of the skyline motor. I just never knew they were the a31...

Or on the plate at the back of the engine bay (on the firewall).

Rare Maximas? Hmm...I'd say Crimson Blaze ones are probably up there. I would also say the same for whatever color happyricefob has because not too many people seem to have ever seen it.

I sorta have a rare Maxima...mine is an ES. Its a Canadian model that was made only in 99...basically just an SE with a few less features (no spoiler, sunroof, bose, etc.). It does have traction control, LSD, and heated cloth seats though. I don't really see many of them up here.



Somebody posted pics of Cefiros in New Zealand I think and there was a wagon version with the SE 5-Spokes...I thought that was kind of neat.

Why doesn't somebody take a 1st gen maxima and mod it up to some crazy amount of whp? it's rwd, so nobody's going to cry about fwd. I do realize that there is probably a lot of work, but hey...its what many people on this forum want, a rwd maxima.

Hey Northern Maxima, I have a 99 ES in Icelandic Pearl. I have only seen one other around here and there are a lot of Maximas.

I do see a few of those "RARE" black SE, with black leather and (limo)tinted windows. They usually have wierd looking wheels and sound funny too!

Deep Blue Pearl (BM1) sound nice, don't think I've seen that before. Black Emerald (DJ2) also changes color in the sun - looks black on a dull or rainy day and metallic dark green on a bright day.
