Does anyone know if the 2002 Maxima will have the 3.5 260hp engine standard on all models?

Or, will it be an option?

I would imagine it would be standard across the board, seeing as though Nissan has sold the same engine in all of its Maximas since 1995. I see a special edition coming out wit about 300 HP in the future though, if Nissan wants to keep ahead of the Johnsons.

actually they always had the same engine throughout all there maxima models except from 92-94 when they had the VE engine in the SE while the GXE and GLE had the VG engine...

That's why I said '95+. I think most Maxima owners know about the VE/VG thing during the early 90s.

Ah, well who buys all those 4 cylinder Camrys?? Lotsa people becuase it's cheaper and gets better mileage. But in this case, two different size V6 engines offered in the same car doesn't really make economical sense.(marketing or tooling-wise).
