I wish my maxima has:

1. quieter ride. that wind noise really annoying.

If you are talking about "hardware":

2. RIS, even altima has it?? what a flagship.

Even without those, I still love my ride!!

I still wish my Max had that remote window feature like the 4th gens, nad the 2k2. I really don't know why. My buddy has a 2k also, and when I told him about this option...his reply...umm, so what. That's like having remote control wipers.

I still would like to have that option.

Since the day I brought her home, I have wished that all four power window controls in the driver's door were 'auto' switches; not just the driver's window. Incidentally, is this a possible mod?

no speed limiter

even though I haven't hit 120 yet, or whatever it may be on the auto.

I also want my maxima to have the electronic manual because it seems pretty cool, kinda like the TL. That's okay though, soon enough I will have a real manual.

I think you'd better double check. I have Voice Guided navigation.... Im not sure what you were sold...

I have most every otion Nissan made. I could care less about my rear passangers. The cooled seats would be nice, here in So Cali. My most wanted thing is RWD .. I never owned a FWD car , and now I know why !

I personally could care less about RWD/FWD. I don't plan on racing my Maxima, so RWDs not really an advantage to me.

Re: One thing I wish my maxima had is:

BMW-class handling/suspension!

So that the Maxima (and the I35) can compete in all those near-luxury car comparisons that car magazines always do, which the BMW 330 almost always wins. Damn, I'm sick of that!

Mod your suspension yourself. My car handles awesome with my current setup. !

I know that. I've already done the simple FSTB mod, and my next one will most likely be the RSB.

I just wanted to fill in the blank with something that I wish the Maxima had stock.

Traction control for the 5 spds/6 spds, preferably one that could be disabled without having a big orange LED shining in your face when its off.

On rainy days, my 2k2 is spinning well into third gear if I don't completely baby it.
