Greetings All!

I finally broke down and bought a Maxima! I got an '03 SE 6-speed Sterling Mist w/dark interior...

Picked it up yesterday. Previous car was a '94 Integra GSR.

If anyone has any tips for us newbies, please drop me line! I'll contribute back when I can...

Awesome web site!

Hmm, Sterling Mist.

Drove one for a couple of days, waiting for my Glacier Pearl to arrive.

Finally decided that Sterling Mist should be renamed.

Shiny Primer.

Forgive me for saying this (which i normally don't) but this is one of the very rare moments that i've seen a newbie give such good advice to a fellow newbie!

Well, although I'm a newbie here (and to Maximas) I've been around newsgroups, mailing lists and web forums a while. I am trainable

But I'm kicking myself now.

I should have told him to start up new threads on whatever topics he wanted. What kind of oil? How often? what tire pressure? what lug nut torque?

Has anybody thought of doing any mods to their Max?
