Good bye old Maxima

Well it was a fun experience here, learned a lot from many different members. here goes my end of the maxima. Well a month ago i was driving my maxima home from a buddy's house, i was going around a corner, hit a patch of black ice spun out. Went up the curb and started to slide sideways, which caused it to roll over. I rolled over twice, then it landed on the wheels, which i have no clue how that happened, and after all that i drove it home. The car still runs and drives after being rolled over.






I recently just went out and got myself a 2002 Pathfinder LE, had to stay with the nissan. But i still drive the roll over maxima every so often, with no cat-back exhaust

you should bleed your brakes to make sure no air got inside.
The maxi held up pretty well. Any injuries or just some scratches?

nope no scratches on myself, just a bump on the head. The sunroof still works great, i was surprise on that part. i only take the car around the block, and the brakes work great, since i installed all new calipers. the only problem right is the lack of power steering, which is caused by a crack in the container.

Hard to tell the damage with all the snow on it - maybe you should sell it next time it snows
