My New Max!!

After spending all my free time on this website i was finally convinced to buy a maxima. I waited and waited to find the one i wanted and found the one. Its a 2002 Black on Black with a 6 - Speed, all the options (i think) minus the nav. Ive really been loving this car since i bought it. Pics are on My Cardomain until i can figure out how to post them here

Hey at least its not as tall as my dads 4x4!

But ive already got my haters, some stupid kid with a really old eclipse and a coffee can on the back "oh i bet that car is fast" so i just rev it a little, and they all go ooohh still thinking they are better. Dem bishes dont know whats up. Reminds me of what people acted like when i drove my dads 4.4 X5. All jealous that they cant have. The best part is this is all mine i payed for it.

i bought the car from the dealership but the only warranty they told me about was the remaining factory, which was only the powertrain and other small things. I know i should know more but its my first time buying from a dealership, my other car i just bought private.

UPDATE* i brought the car in and the only fault stored wasnt present so they reset it for free and sent me off, the thing with the steering wheel heater they said its normal for it to turn off and cycle. it just seemed to me like a long cycle i guess. it worked when i left work, turned off and came on right before i got home, thats about 10 minutes. Is this normal?

I have a black max too, hope you are enjoying it. My biggest problem is keeping black clean. Ordered some Zaino Bros products that should be on their way soon.
