Turning Radius of 2002 Maxima ?

I didn't see it on the web site/brochure.

Maybe somebody could read it from their manual? I want to compare with Altima 2002, which I also don't know.

Camry = 34.8 ft
Accord = 36.4
Acura TL = 36.8
Altima =
Maxima =

Thank You

The SE with 17" wheels is 40 feet, above average.

The SE with 16" wheels, is 35 feet (SE, GLE and GXE with 16's ). (slighty smaller than Camry-36 feet and Accord-36 feet)

I miss my old turning radius.

My 99's radius isn't good, and the 2002 with 17" will be even higher. Blah!

It's ~39ft. (11.9m). I had a 1979 Cadillac that could turn tighter...
