Ok this may be a stupid question but i gotta ask ! I just bought my car 3 weeks ago the car has all the options . I.E. Blk leather , bose , sunroof , fog, heated seats , digital climate control , 5 spd , blk door handles , etc ! Heres the tricky part the title says gxe ! What gives ? Like i said stupid question but still i wanna know about this.

 

if your title says GXE - those are added options at the time of purchase - new. SE has white gauges, 16" tires, intermittent (adjustable) wipers. I'm sure there's more, but you get the idea.

 

It has white gauges but it has the 15 " turbine looking wheels on it ? Where the gauges an add on too ?

 

I forgot it also has the wiper too ????

 

se models have body color door handles, body color grille, rear spoiler, fogs, sunroof, sometimes cloth, balck window trims instead of chrome, white face gauges rather than black.

 

Has it heres a pic !

you definitely have an SE model

95-96 maxima se model came with those wheels you have, 97 and up came with 5 star se rims

 

you could always just check your vin i forget which digit it is but it'll tell you in there somewhere what model it is

 

Cool i was thinking that but wasnt sure . Thanks for the advice.

 

Looks like an SE to me.

 

this is a quote from the thread i made about se.. not sure if its correct though

"TO DECODE THE VIN PLATE:
Raise your hood. Look for a shiny metal identification tag fastened to the passenger side of firewall. The top row is the Vehicle Identification Number, starting with J. The second row is model information. The first five characters are BLHUL. The sixth character is the trim level designator, defined as follows:
E = GXE
G = GLE
V = SE"

From the faq.

 

Indeed, that's one way to tell what trim level it is.

OP: If you don't trust the VIN plate for some reason, I can run your VIN in FAST and tell you what the trim is.

 

95/96 SEs (any trim level, actually) only had 15"s, 16" were only in 97-99.

 

I also thinnk it's and SE.

Those rims look like they are directional and they seem to be the wrong direction.

I think they should be on th eleft side.

Anybody agree???

 

No, 95/96 SE and 97-99 GLE wheels (which are the same) are not directional.

 

doesn't matter what way they go as long as you don't have directional tread on there..

 

Ill send you a pm tomm of the vin . I really appreciate it. I could have sworn the title said gxe i may have looked at it wrong , lol ! I mean it is what it is you know ! I know it says gxe on the insurance paper work but the lady never asked what kind it was ? Oh well ! Should i correct the lady at state farm or just let it slide ? I mean if something happens and my car gets total ( god please dont) I dont wanna get screwed on something i overlooked , you know .

 

It has all the features of an SE, so it probably is.

My title says "GXE/GLE", even though it's an SE.

 

maybe you should inform the insurance guys about the result of your question,I think your car as the others said , SE...from the wheels , dash and spoiler...........

 

my dad has a 97 gxe. with power seats (both driver and passenger), moonroof, bose. forgot if he has abs or not.
but his title says: gxe/gle/se

 

Sound like nutting to worry about other than the insurance. Ill take care of that Monday !

 

Don't worry about it. My insurance card says "Maxima GLE" and I most definitely have an SE.

 

Same here....just have fun, no need to call anyone....

 

Don't go by the title, mass titles say gxe/gle/se

 

go by the vin. lol directional

 

Got everything took care of at the insurance co. See looked at the paper work and i explained my sitution. She type my vin in and it came up se ! She apologized and then she said it was a good thing that i caught this. She said if i had totaled the car the insurance company would have payed for a base model and not an se model. Needless to say i feel better !
