Hey guys im looking for a car that i can beat up and mess around with for the next year...

i am looking around and there is a 98 max with 100k miles for $1800...

Is there alot of performance mods available for this car? is it a cheap car to maintain?

what should i look for if i go out and test drive it??

 

#1. Great choice of vehicle for what you are looking for.
#2. 1800 is a little stretch for a 98 atleast with only 100k. I think youre more in the 95-96 with about 120k for that range but you may luck up.
#3. Yes mods are almost infinite, you have 3.5 swap, variable manifolds, intake , exhaust, pulley, super charger, turbo.
#4. Personally mine is relatively cheap to maintain. 215k ive only replaced axles @ $69 new. 02 sensors $100. and do it your self mobil oil change.

GOOD luck

 

for 1800 i would jump on it, gxe, se, gle? pics?

 

not sure i am at work and cant call up until 1pm...
ill let ya know

 

damn where you people find it so cheap. i would buy it if the body its in good condition. this car runs strong you won't regret. that's a good price.

 

Damn get it before someone else does. $1800 is a great price.

 

Let me buy it! LOL

Check the coilpacks
Codes

 

Codes yes....coilpacks were more a problem of the 99's

 

My last Maxima was a 98. They are very solid and possibly the best combination of reliable, fast and cheap on the road. $1800 is a great price and I'd buy it even if I didn't need it.

If cars rust where you are at check the lower radiator mount.

 

Im fixin to pu a 95 with 112k miles for $2000 (was 1800, but i told him id pay for the radiator replace). It took me a long time to find this deal, and I actually asked the guy if he was selling it.

 

maximas ftw.

 

Wow! $1800 you are one lucky man, I got a 1997 Maxima GLE for $4000 that is in mint condition when I got it...... take the offer!

 

I paid 2150 for my 95 with 176k miles. so thats a good price if you can find it

 

yeah when i bought my 98 w/ 98k a couple years back i paid $3600 great car and runs stronger than ever.

 

wow i wish i could of found that! i got a 97 150k for $3100, cheapest i found find in state

 

100K for under 1800? Good luck..
