Difference between trims?
first off, before you guys start your yelling, I searched .. and searched..
couldnt find anything.
I also checked the stickies.. no FAQ or anything (although it should be)
I did find this:
Where exactly is this metal plate located? In the car or engine bay?
What are cosmetic differences in the gxe vs se?
From what I gathered ...
- Gxe has chrome colored door handles, se has body colored
- Gxe has chrome window trim, se has body colored
-Gxe has crappy seats, se has leather or better cloth.
-gxe has hub caps, se has rims
-gxe has worse suspension
-gxe is rare with bose
Now, let's say the guy got an aftermarket headunit, changed his springs, changed rims and tires. [also possible to change window trim and door handles].
Any other way to tell?
[probably the method above is best.. but let me know]
Thanks alot guys!

I did find this:
Look in the engine bay at the firewall. There should be a metal plate with your VIN number stamped on it. Below the VIN number on the plate is another number. It should be something like this:
BLJULTYA33EUA-----
Here's a breakdown of what that code means:
B = Sedan
LJ = Engine (see below)
U = 2WD Axle
L = Left Hand Drive
T = Trim Level (see below)
A = Transmission Type (see below)
A33 = Car Model
E = EGI Intake
N = Emissions Type (see below)
A = Seating Capacity

GXE and GLE have the same suspension. The SE is just more sportier and rougher. I love my GXE/GLE luxury suspension. Dont forget even though its a GXE, its still a maxima which was nissians top model for a sedan.
GXE cloth seats=SE cloth seats.
SE has white gauges. SE also have black surrounding tail lights. SE has that little round tail cap while GXE does not.

i didnt crash it...someone pulled in front of me
funny thing is, i joked about it for a long time. i was wondering how to total my car and make it look like an accident.
then a chick failed to yield and i hit her. it happened so quick that i actually tried to avoid the accident
