wats going on future 5th gen friends? lol

IS it as hard or harder to find this for Gen 5.5 as it was with my Gen 4? O and with at least projectors? I don't know which one came with projectors but I have seen some that did, but they were prob aftermarkets headlights me thinks. Mainly because I have not seen any 5th gens with them stock so far..

I want the VQ35 2002+ only... If I am gonna get another max, I want it to be worth getting with not just an MEVI upgrade and looks. I want the extra 65HP from the bigger engine and I heard that there was a Gen5 with VLSD? I hope this is not that AE 2001 that only has it.

Basically in short. If I get a newer maxima I want

2002+
VQ35
VLSD if it exhists
Projectors
black on black leather.
6speed
sunroof/spoiler
SE


I know I am picky, but it took my 8 long months to find this for a Gen 4 and I love my Gen 4, I have had it for almost 2 years and I think my next car, I may want another maxi.

I don't know a whole lot of the 5th gens. I only know 4th gens... sorry if I am being noobie but at least I know cars very well......

very hard

HLSD was an option
02-03 have HIDs not projectors

looks like i have the exact car that you want

Unpossible.

and i almost forgot

^ yah, I m trying to read it all, its quite a mess... lol.. Not as organized and nice in info like our Gen 4 FAQ :-P


o and I hate j00 for having the car I want... lol... We can always trade... My car car is just a little slower... Thats all... lol

it took me 3 months to find...a 6MT is hard to find....and a black on black is hard to find

I'll trade you interior SoonerFan. It took me 6 months to find my 6spd 02 SE Black on Grey. I had to settle for Grey leather...I wanted black too...but this was one owner and babied so I jumped at the chance. Good luck with the search, be patient...hope you find it man.

yah mine is black and mint...

yeah...for some reason, most KH3 exteriors have lighter interiors

it took me about 5 months give or take...got mine shipped by carmax from atlanta to houston!

Black paint is a part time job. I have my own detailing business and I will never, ever own a black car again.

6 speed cars are hard enough to find without restricting your choice to just one color.

but when they are clean...very sexy....

No projectors on 5.5 gens. They are only available on 6th gen+.

Took me 4 months to find a decent KH3 5.5gen 6speed.

And yes, Black is a second job, but it is worth it after a fresh wax.

get polished titanium THE hawtest color ever, only available in 2003!!

+1
Mine also has HLSD and all the bells and whistles except navi......

With the black tail lights, those are the best looking maxima's.

LIES!!!!

I saw 2 on AutoTrader (VA and NC) that seemed reasonable. There's one in Norman, OK - but I wasn't sure if you'd want to go that far.

So what does KH3 mean?

paint code for "super black"

smart maxima people know their codes...see sig

although i'm a little biased

every thought about a blue with black i think thats hotter than a black on black...

one of my friend owns a blue with black leather and i am a big fan of black on black 6speed thing too but man that blue on black thing is nice...

Yeah, I know, this is an Audi A6 I detailed this past Sunday...







...but I got paid for it too. No more dealing with black paint on my own time. Just isn't worth it for the 5 minutes it will actually be clean.

you have a sterling mist though! Atleast it looks like it

My favorites in order: polished titanium, sheer silver and black tied for second and I dont care about the rest

Although the sterling mist is a pretty common color, I like it ALMOST as much as the polished titanium color... Pictures don't do it justice, the deep/metallic look of the sterling mist is sooo pretty!

yeah, my 00 was sterling mist...nice color

when i was looking for mine the main thing to me is to have black leather and a 6 speed. the rest did not really care

ended up up with Polished titanium w/ titanium edition. I just wish i had the meridian package.

yeh i wanted a black on black but settled for silver on black i think it good it was my other choice. i wouldnt mind a white on black i had a freind who had one but it was a 4th gen and looked good

I don't know about black on black but when I brought my 2k2 I wanted either a white or silver exterior. At the time 6MT alone weren't that hard to find for me cause I was searching the whole SE but if your looking in a specific area that you might be waiting a bit. I found mine pretty much local but I had to pay a bit more than I should have but I wasn't raped.

have you ever owned a black car, i personly hate it now after owning 2 black cars.

****s always dirty, pita to clean and detail ...

Hey, even if you can find a 6 speed loaded. It will be hard to get one with
low mileage.
As far as color, I had a Black 01 Accord and really liked it but it did show dirt really easy.

Love my Gray Lustre with Black leather.

a black car is hard to get clean and even harder to keep clean...but its all worth it when it is clean.
we currently own 2 black cars..the max and a mazda6...looking at getting an Xterra and will probably get a different color so we only have 2 cars to keep clean.

yeah it depends on your region, I'd say check autotrader as well

I was just looking around the site and found 3 or 4 in my area for sale. You'd probably find a lot if you were around NYC since there are/were a good amount of 5th gen owners.

yeah i know it looks like it, but it's actually silver.. either sheer silver or polished titanium.. i had a sterling mist in my last car, a 2001 max.. since they're so close in color, everybody keeps saying "why'd you get a car the same color?" and i'm like its not the same damn color! lol

this might be a better pic... maybe you can tell me if its sheer silver or polished titanium.. lol

yep yep thats sheer silver, same as me. Here is what polished titanium looks like:

Grey Lustre here but with dark grey cloth. Love the combo and even when the car is dirty is doesn't look bad-but is still dark enough the paint has excellent depth when I get done with it.

I went with silver instead of black (because I really wanted a 6 speed) and have regretted it ever since. I HATE light colors! They don't look too much different clean than they do dirty! Every time I washed my previous black cars it was like getting a new car. I love that. Now when I wash and wax my silver Maxima, I think "Why did I even bother? It looks EXACTLY the same."

I've been thinking more and more of selling my current silver with cloth interior Maxima and buying a black with leather Maxima. Same year too.

haha sorry.. not everyone cares to study their VIN # and every code for their car dood.
But if that makes you smart.. then you are a genius Sooner!
