I've been quiet on the forums as my Maxima has been EXTREMELY reliable the past 2 years and have been putting much time in to my newly acquired 1991 Lotus Excel instead.

Last year I took the Maxima out to the Nurburgring and I have to wonder how many other 2002-03 Nissan Maxima SE's have made it there? It was truly a blast, and just found out there were photographers there the day I drove it (15 November 2015) and was able to buy the pics!!
I'm no racecar driver, but I assure you the near stock Maxima is NOT a track car. The ceramic brake pads were fading 1/4-1/3 of the way in. The V-rated tires had questionable grip at times and I the stillen strut bar was out-cornered by seemingly stock hatchbacks. I did manage to pass a Porsche 944, but a 911 and Nissan Sylvia exploited how poor this car handles and my driving skills.

The car will be sold in the springtime here in Germany.





The Lotus taking my time and attention:

 

I'm actually jealous that you were able to do this. That's so awesome to see a Maxima on the famous hair pin turn.

 

very kool thanks for the thread ! interesting and unique opportunity.
