the most modified maxima known, LOL kiss my **** !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

he is chargin up the mods on that maxima like its a bunch of mods on a ferrari enzo and he's running a monopoly....

this is the type of car some serious maxima enthusiast off the .org would be interested in and sadly enough, this car is a lame joke to all of us.

he would be lucky to get $10,000, let alone 45

That's the first thing I laughed at too. I always find it comical how people throw out ridiculous claims in their for sale ad, w/o backing it up.

Haha... I noticed that too. Even 265hp is nothing to brag about.

20k in audio mods?? Maybe I have a bad memory, but I really don't remember them showing that off in the movie for even 2 seconds...they did however bring to our attention the audio in the RX7...

Huge fail on the HP #'s considering the bragging done of it lol. Even the top most at 265 is nothing. PLENTY of people here get over 300hp to the wheels and The Wizards car is worth more, and is much nicer looking than this...Whoever puts $20,000 worth of audio equipment in their car is dumb and i can't imagine the weight of all of it. 900lbs probably hit the nail on the head ahah

You know what? This will decimate all, after you put about fifteen grand in it or more. If we have to, overnight parts from Japan.

I see a cool air intake. Its got a Nos fogger system and a T4 turbo, Dominic. I see an AIC controller. It has direct-port nitrous injection. Yeah, and a stand alone fuel management system. Not a bad way to spend 10,000 dollars.

Yup, and if you lengthen your injector pulse another millisecond, you'll run 9's.

[quote]The car is valued at $75,000[/quote]

This car is worth just as much as a brand new Nissan GTR?

Difference is it's 12 years old, has half the horsepower and has 45,000 miles... damn, someone help me do the math here...

I guess half that price or maybe even 3/4 of that price is from the "fame" it had in the movie.

Its like doing a prostitute verses doing a **** star. The prostitute is just any girl so she will be reasonable priced. The **** star on the other hand will charge you 10x what the other girl charges because she is famous! Not that I have ever................. never mind.

Ahh come on guys this is probably one of the most famous maximas in the world lol. Not worth the price of course but when we saw it in the movie I'm sure all of us said OMG a maxima lol. Maybe somebody will offer him a resonable price and bring it up to day.

Curb Weight: 3,895 lbs...The car’s three huge JBL W12Gti woofers weigh more than 20 lbs. What a waste of $20,000 in audio system.
