We all know that the Maxima and I-30 have the same platform and share 75% or more of their parts. But look at the Maxima in Australia-an I-30 with Nissan Maxima badging! Crazy!

In Italy they have the I30 body and it is called the Maxima QX. As far as I know the "Maxima" body we have here in the US is ONLY here in the US. In the rest of the world they have the I30 body and are called either a Maxima or Cefiro.

in korea, there is a 4 cylinder engine. choice of either a 1.8 liter or a 2.0 liter. the korean version also recently added a 3.0 V6 to their line-up but it's not a VQ motor...oh, btw, in Korea, the maximas are called SM5s....so, it's SM518, SM520 and SM530..
