What Class car are the Maximas in???
I know it not Camary or Accord. Is it TL-s, I35, BMW 3 series???

Please someone enlight me

 

Well, it would most likely be classed with the Accordm, Camry and/or Avalon, Malibu/Cutlass and/or Impala, Grand Prix, Intrepid, & Taurus.

Obviously, we know it's tons better than any of those cars, but it is not considered in the same class with Acura, Lexus, BMW or Audi -- even though it can hold its own against some of them as well.

 

Is "King-Of-The-Road" an official EPA class?

What about "Rice Rapists"?

 

STS or STR depanding on the mods...

If you go by Consumer Reports or other magazines, we are in the Family Sedan class. I know that ignores the sporty, performance aspect of our Maximas, but that's the way it goes.

 

Very difficult to classify the Max now especially since the Altima was redesigned and with the existance of the I35. The Maxima really is in a state of limbo. The Max is in the same class as Avalon, Diamonte and Millenia. The Diamonte and Millenia are consider Entry level luxuary because their respective companies don't have premium brands like Nissan's Infinite and Toyota's Lexus.

 

What Magellan said. But I think GTPs, SHOs (if they still produced them) and the like would be our competitors..

 

its a midsize

 

Mid-size sedan. Competes with Camry, Taurus, Passat, Accord...

MotorTrend called it a nice alternative to the MB E-series or a 528i.

Personally, I consider it in a class all its own.

 

it's in the RICKSHAW class

 

Our cars aren't in any class.

It *is* Class - plain and simple.

 

BMW 4 series.

 

Yes the Maxima competes with Avalon, Diamonte, and Millenia, which I would call near-luxury, of which the Maxima is the sportiest. The Altima competes with Accord, Camry, and Galant now, of which the Altima is the sportiest.

 

what class?

Its "GOD'S CHARIOT"

JOKE FOR RUSS AND CLUBSI LURKERS

 

I wonder if ClubSi ever saw Russ' thread saying the Maxima is not God hahaha

 

this may sound old but...Maxima is in a class of its own.

No other car can compare to that!

Car like it.....= "0"

 

Slow-Class with terrible tranny class.

Better it be sporty yet considered Family Sedan for our insurance purposes. Ever tried to insure something like an M3 with a few tickets on your record???? Buddy at work pays almost 2K every 6 months for insurance on his 98 M3. I pay 800 every 6 on my 2K2 Max.....

I'll stick with the family sedan label

 

Thanks Guys
