Just bought a 02 6 speed!!!

I just bought a 02 black on black leather 6 speed!!! Finally found what I wanted. Could'nt talk the wife into a 6 speed so i got her a 2000 I30, then I bought a 1996 maxima SE automatic, So I finally decided to get the car I really wanted, and it was worth it!! Can't believe how these things run!!! Let the modding begin!!!

Lucky you, I wish I have deep pockets to get a car for the wife and get one that I really want, especially that you got a 6 spd, no fair!! But I'm glad you like it.

Nice choice. My first piece of advice - watch out for those Potenza's.

good find! the 6 speed makes it all worth it....and definitely get rid of the deathtenzas, which im doing as soon as i get home from my vacation, because ive only had the car for 3 months and ive already had a couple bad near-accident experiances even when using extreme caution....those things are freaking dangerous

Great choice. I love my 6 speed. No leather on mine though.

Check into the HP Autoworks STS. Best mod I've done yet.

I have an 02 6 speed too, but no leather. Still have the Potenzas after 40K miles. ROatted them for the first time at 38K miles and these things wont die. So now the fronts have near new tread. So far they get around OK in the snow so maybe another year and at 50K miles I'll get the Faulkens...

You may notice that the 6 speed gets awesome MPG IF you drive nice.

Very true. But it's soooo hard to drive nice sometimes. It's too much fun!

Congrats on the new Max. You'll love the 6MT. Wanna have some fun? Roll along at around 3k rpms in second and just mash it. Never ceases to make me smile.

I just recently purchased my Max, and I haven't stopped smiling yet. I searched for a long time to find the right one. So far my searching has without a doubt paid off.
