Just wanted to say hi. I picked up my new Maxima on Friday. It's a 2003 GLE, sheer silver with black leather. Only options being floor mats and splash guards. Loving it so far. It's replacing a 1987 Mercedes 560SEL and will be siting next to my 1992 Nissan Turbo NX2000.

The Max should be a step up from your 560SEL. The Max is no Benz in prestige but it competes quite nicely with the C class or should dare say it an E class (Not the 2003) what made you choose the Max over another Benz?

I was considering a used E320 or E420 but came to the decision that I wanted something new and didn't want inflated insurance rates. The Maxima has more than enough pep and if I really want pep I have my NX2000. In the end the Maxima was the most for the $$$.

Wise decision nice to see that a Benz owner would buy our beloved Maxima enjoy it.

Congrats on the new car purchase! I'm sure you'll grow to love your car more and more, like I have. Your link isn't working though...

Try the link tomorrow. Geocities has a bandwidth limit and apparently it's been exceeded for the day.
