2002 6-SPEED's OFFICIAL ROLL-OUT TOMORROW 10-1-2001
Talked to a Consumer affairs representative (Chris something..) and asked when the official release of the 6-Speeds were, since no dealers know when they would get one in, and he says 10-1-2001 monday morning is the OFFICIAL mass Roll-out of 6-speed SE's and he confirmed my order! Guess the dealer got it through in time!

I believe the only other fwd car that came with one from the factory to date was the Integra Type R, and the new SE-R spec V(not out yet).
Does anyone know the skipad or slalom #'s for any '00 and up SE MAX?
Do they handle good? What can they be compared to?!
Thanks, shea

VLSD was standard on all Max in Canada BUT HLSD was (to my knowledge) only available on Integra Type R. This year (2002 model year) it's available on the SE-R Spec V AND Maxima SE.
BTW, the main reason I got it was for the traction in the snow/ice. Up here, it's gonna be a BIG help.

Yeah dude, major difference between VLSD and HLSD. My '93 SE-R has a VLSD.

Anyone want to explain or share some links?
How is the HLSD better than a VLSD or the other types?
As I understand it the VLSD requires that a wheel actually start slipping before it can do anything about it, but the HLSD senses the loss in torque before the wheel actually slips. I've found virtually no info on HLSD's on the web. Is it a generic term for a Torsen Differential, or is it something else?

Believe it or not, GM had a torsen diff option for their 'hopped up' quad four vehicles, ie Olds Achieva, pretty sure Buick, too.

The Invoice on it is $26,490 + advertising fee (approx $200) + tax + title + license + document fee!!
Hmm... I wonder how you pulled that one...

Sales Tax here is (DuPage County) is 6.75%. Therefore the tax itself would've been around $1700 dollars.
YOU GOT A SWEET DEAL!!

I would use Edmunds or Carpoint or NissanDriven.com and send request a quote. Make it clear that I do not want any BS. DO not call me with "ifs" and "how about this..." and any such sales tactics.
If you have the car and want to sell it, give me your best price.
ALso, you can try and shop for prices at Carmax. A rule of thumb is that a regular dealer should sell for around $500 less than Carmax.

Some people on another board were saying good things about Carsdirect.com. No problems at all. I have heard about them, as well as Priceline. (Funny thing though. I went to their site and couldn't get on...makes you wonder. LOL) With Priceline you actually put in the amount you want to pay and exactly what you are looking for. Dealers contact you with an offer. If they don't have exactly what you are looking for at that price, you walk away not paying a thing. If so and you change your mind, the fee is $50 or $100. I can't remember exactly. Sounds like Carpoint is about the same.
Carmax's prices seem to be in line, but I can't get a good feel without the actual breakdown of what's on the car. It's sorta spelled out, but not per the exact packages.
Edmunds seems a little off to me sometimes. I'm not crazy about them. Then again, maybe it's just the reviews. I don't know which.
I want a deal like 02 MaximaSE got. Under $27K for everything out the door!!
