Like, but no love.

Had this 2001 AE for 6 years now. It was a nice looking alternative to the Camry and Accord. A good looking family sedan.

3.0L, 4spd auto, fwd, beam axle rear, large diameter steering wheel, 4-door family sedan FTW!

 

lol you got that from the cadillac commercial .

BTW, unless you running boost or this your first car, you should not be in love with an 8 year old family sedan. 350z, g35, something with rwd or close to 300 horses....thats a different story. I do like the reliability of my max though.

 

I would definently check the TSX before making those assumption that are not that great of cars to began with.. Nice looking and set-up but comparison to a MAX.. does not work well.

 

i'm here...and i dont love my maxima...i like it....

 

for sure you should definatley took the 09 cam .... would have traded it in for even a better maxima.

 

especially the type s

 

Wouldn't take on over my '02 though. The TSX is a dog compared to my Maxima. I'll take the trade-off in gas mileage for the extra 55 hp and 80 lb-ft of torque...listed curb weight is 100 pounds more than the Maxima too.

I can't say I *love* my Maxima but it is the best car I've had since my '74 Z/28.

 

yeahgomaxima

i love my maxima...but im not IN LOVE with my maxima

 

i love her.
I don't understand why ppl don't maintain their vehicle and then complain that it breaks....

 

I don't love her, I respect her for giving me so much fun.

 

Cars break even when maintained!

 

true; however, a lot of people on here abuse their cars and dont maintain them properly and then come on here and blame nissan and the dealership.

an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure

 

09 camry > 03 maxima any day of the week.

beats it in: style, performance, reliability, options

i honestly think the op doesn't know what he is talking about...

this thread is such flame bait

 

Agreed, sometimes they break after you maintain. I know people that clean throttle body and end up with more problems than they started with. Thats why I'm scared to do anything near my MAF nowadays.

 

I can believe that! Welcome back to Okla by the way Jason....

 

we need to get together

will send PM

 

Only if it is a V6...and an '03 with a 6 speed still has a small advantage in the quartermile.

No way would I want a 4 cylinder Camry over my Maxima. I also think the front end is fugly, regardless of the engine.

The other car I considered besides my Maxima was the V6 Accord. Slightly less performance but they definitely get better mileage. I ended up going with the Maxima because of the extra power, larger interior and HIDs-not to mention they run $3000 less than similarly equipped Accords.

Make the car a new TL-S and I'd have to go with the Acura.

 

That would be SO STUPID!!!

I love my car!!! I'll never trade it in, its payed off :-). Back in the day I would of traded it in for a 350z or G35 coupe or sedan.

 

04 TSX hahaha
