I finally bought a Maxima today!(pics added)
Just bought a 97 Maxima SE, very nice! A cool blue color. I'll post pics when i get home. I'm very pumped though, bought it from a girl who was very **** about her maxima, she had records from the purchase, put on all new tires, new muffler, the inside is tan leather and looks flawless and the outside is real nice, has a couple scratches, but overall very nice. Has a little dent in the trunk, but no biggee to me. Might get it fixed later, but overall it is the nicest maxima I have ever driven or looked at, so I bought it today. Picking it up tonight.

The real questions are miles and price.

yeah same here, I think it is actually faster than my supercharged GTP when I had it stock, which is saying a lot because my GTP was crazy fast! Ran low 13's with less than $500 in mods but of course stock it was 15's

after driving it for a while, here's my plus and negatives compared to the other cars i've driven:
pluses:
1)The car handles incredibly agile and smooth, better than any sports car I ever owned.
2)everything is so smooth on it, maybe because it's the first foreign car I owned, but the way everything works is like silk, the steering, the ride, the controls inside etc.
3)The car is crazy fast for only having 190hp! My GTP when it was stock was 240hp and this car seems faster than my stock GTP when it was stock, Of course.
Negatives:
1)the headlights. I hate how they dont turn on and off automatically and u have to rotate a turn signal type switch to use them.
2)No beep on alarm. I can never tell if my car is locked unless i'm standing in front of it and see the lights go on.
3)no one-touch sunroof or sunroof automatically closing when u turn the car off. Even my Ford Explorer has a sunroof that closes when u turn the car off.
but those are all just little things, overall I love the Maxima compared to my other cars so far. It feels like it's very well put together
in case your wondering, here's most of the cars I've owned and suped up so far:
