Original 02 owner here. bought late 01, just turned 100k. Faster and much better handling than any other time of her life and no problems besides the ones I make. Love this car

 

2002 SE, bought it with 8miles on it. I traded in my 99 BMW 2.8 coupe for a 09 Lexus RX, couldn't depart with the Max. Max has been sitting in the garage since march with 82k miles on it. I don't drive it much, but cant seem to let it go.

 

Still have mine with 109K miles. Bought it in May 2001 and did all the normal bolt-on upgrades. Full custom enclosure, intake, greddy catback, illuminas, 19s, etc...

 

I am an original 2000 Nissan Maxima owner, bought the first one off the showroom in December of 99. I have never let those Nissan dealers touch my car. I have 189,900 miles on the car and the car still runs like a clock. I have a Greddy Catback on it and a Koni sport suspension Brembo Brakes but other than that it is stock. it will run forever!

 

Original Owner... all original and idles very nicely at 750rpm at all times. It has 88,000 miles on it.

Did a detail recently:

 

 

 

I've never seen a cleaner Max. Very nice!

Technically I'm not the original owner, but my dad bought it new in 2001 as a 2002 model. I drive it now, so its still in the same family. Mine is at 97k miles and unfortunately she's every problem known to man (as of right now, the biggest is that the exhaust is falling off and it sounds like it doesn't have a muffler). I will never own a Nissan again. This car ruined it for me.
