Hey guys, long time lurker, posted a few times whenever I needed some help. Just wanted to say thanks to the forum, everyone has been great over my few years of owning my Maxima.

I'm going from a 1997 Maxima to a 2011 VW Jetta. I just got my Bachelor's Degree in May and landed a job right out of school and my Maxima just started to fall apart on me. TERRIBLE rocker panel rust (thanks New England) paired with a failing ignition switch/hard starts/overall nicks and dings from four years of college and it was just time to part ways. If it weren't for the cosmetic or hard start issues I would have ran her into the ground.

So, thanks again everyone, I'm sure I'll still find myself on the forums here and there!

On to the pictures:

A personal favorite shot of the Max:

Good Luck with the VW and glad we could be of assistance.

 

Tdi?

 

Rust is the only thing tearing down these 4th gens... The other stuff you listed are easy fixes..

 

Nice and clean Maxima. Enjoy your Jetta.

 

Selling the max?

 

good luck with the new jetta, a buddy of mine has one I think they are pretty good cars. hope your maxima finds a new home to someone who will take care of it, that thing looks pretty clean
