thank you Maxima for 27 years of service
27 years ago May I picked up my new 95 Maxima from Torrance Nissan in socal.
and a couple weeks ago I retired it from service. not sure if selling yet.
Mechanically and mostly visually it is still 100% ., 115K miles always garaged. but I wanted something with modern conveniences
so got an 23 G70 AWD 3.3TT

.
and the replacement with the max visible now living outside but now under a cover.

for instance the new Genesis has all of 300 miles on the ODO after 3 weeks of use and it came with 28
edit: just now noticed I had 20 years of membership here this year. wow.

Beautiful cars. That's some upgrade in horsepower: 190 to 365. How's that been? Did you consider buying the modern Maxima or other models? I hear turbos can be hard on the oil, so make sure you change on time.
Did you think about buying a camper van or something instead? It looks like all you have is sedans
I'm sure you will find a happy buyer for your old Max if you choose to go that way.

Yes, I hear CVT transmissions are not the greatest, even when they're not breaking down. Some manufacturers now use a "launch gear" to alleviate acceleration issues.
I am sorry to hear about your loss. Please take care and drive safe.

I hope your move isn’t met with any regret …
I’ve noted that pretty much all new vehicles, including those from Hyundai, include proprietary system management software that prohibits an owner from even using a commercially available scan-tool to diagnose issues and investigate illuminated dash warnings.
I, personally, find it ridiculous that once a vehicle’s manufacturer warranty period has passed, troubleshooting and repairs can be performed nowhere but at a dealership or at a manufacturer authorized repair facility … absolutely ridiculous.
Good for you on your new car, but my ‘99 isn’t going anywhere as long as I can help it.

I've been considering replacing my 2010 Maxima for years now with either a Q50 or a Kia Stinger. Just like you said the Q50 seemed outdated and didn't "WOW" me, and unfortunately, the new Maxima doesn't excite me either. Seeing your G70 I now have a third option to consider.

Really liking the G70! I can also relate to the CVT's. I have owned probably 17 or more Nissans in my life, but I am truly disappointed with Nissan lately. Owned an 87 SE 5spd, feel in love with that fine machine! Also had an 01 & 02. My wife had an '11 Altima with the CVT, she loved that car. Traded it off for a 16 Max with the SR package. I started to fall outta love with the Maximas starting in 2004. Recently picked up a 97 Max GLE w/97K miles for $2500 for my oldest boy. Hated his 2005 Lincoln LS. I'm excited for him. Your Maxima is beautiful. If you were closer, I'd be all over it like a wet t-shirt. LOL
