Differences in 02 and 03?
Looking at getting a 6spd SE and was wandering what the differences were exactly in 02 and 03. Like what was available on an 03 that they didn't yet have on the 02. Thanks in advance...

If i remember well 03 you have:
- compass on miroir
- Titanum Edition : gauge, inside handle, steering wheel, console and Titanium color mags.
- the leather seat don't have a "hole"

I think some bugs were fixed from the 02 models.

I think the door trim panel coloring was multi colored on the 02, but all one color on the 03's.

Not to my knowledge. I'm betting she was comparing an '03 with no S/R to an '02 with a S/R. They eat headroom and require a different headliner.

I believe that maybe he is talking about the perforations in the leather...If so, I have a 2k2 SE and my seats have no perforation.

Maybe the perforated leather came in one of the extra packages nissan had going for a while. Stock leather does not have it.

The ceiling is the same as well.

The Japanese made the 2003 Maxima special because Maximas would no longer
be made in Japan, so they gave it a going away party, primarily Titanium related.
