Have any of you come across a toy replica of the Maxima? I want to give one to my son for his 3rd birthday. He loves Hot Wheels and says he wants to grow up to be a "race car driver". I have looked in the Hot Wheel website but no luck. Do any of you know of any die cast toy max's or maybe even a plastic model?

Check with Courtesy Nissan in Dallas, TX. I've seen some of 3rd gen burgundy color toy maxima replicas that they have in their order/parts dept. They may not have it on line, but if you'll call them, they should have some and Im sure they will ship it to you. Tel: 972.231.2600

We had a pewter company send us a toy pewter 5th gen to put on your keychain. We didn't order any, but I bet I could, it was a cool toy!

Toy Maxima

I am surprised it's not available as a toy replica. I called the Courtesy Nissan parts dept at the phone listed above. They did not have any replicas not even the 3rd gen. I would get the pewter 5th gen if it is available. How do I get it?
If anybody else has any leads please let me know. I have a couple of weeks before it his birthday.

My local Sams Club has die cast metal models for almost any car except the 5th gen maxima. They have the 4th gen though.

Hey guys- I just got off the phone with the phone with the pewter toy dude, he's going to send me a sample Maxima, I'll try to post a pic of it when it comes in. Of course he wanted to sell me 250 of them! Depending on how many I order, the price should be $5-6. So, the more response I get, the easier it will be to run by my boss!

Thanks, guys, I'll call the guy & order up! He's in British Columbia, so it might take some time. And our long-distance friends need not worry about excessive shipping $$$, it's so light, it should only be a couple of bucks.

Thank you

Looks like I'll get a toy max. Please order 5 for me. (In case the kids lose 'em, I can replace it).
I would check out the 4th gen toy, but there is no Sam's Club nearby. We do have a Walmart. What brand was the toy so I can track it down? Thanks again
