2K3 Max Titanium Ed. looks REAL sharp!
Went to my local dealer (Baker-Jackson NIssan) in Houston just to see if any 2k3's had come in yet. There was just one... decked out Sheer Silver SE w/ Titanium Pkg. Man... IT LOOKS GOOD!! :eek: :bawling:
Wheels: Unfortunately, I love em'. The wheels are nice in a very understated way. They aren't fully chrome, but definately have a subdued shiny finish to em'. Paint: The sun was bright and beaming down on it. The paint screams!! The car almost hurt my eyes it was so bright!! Interior: Very little change. I saw the center console w/ silver (titanium) trim. Looks good. I couldn't see any TE stitching on seats or anywhere. :confused: The door locks are "slightly" different than the 2k2's. Neither better or worse. All in all the same. Tailights and Front end: Tailights where exactly the same as my 2k2. Front-end lights were exactly the same as well. It had the 'orange' lights like the 2k2's. (I believe there was some speculation that the 2k3's didn't have the orange lights). They do. I'm still happy w/ my Sterling Mist 2k2. But, I have to admit the Titanium Edition is NICE!! REAL NICE!! |
I'm gonna leave in about an hour to go check it out. ;)

I got it confused w/ where I bought my Max. Sorry!!! Again, the 2k3 is at Baker-Jackson Nissan. I don't know about Mossy. Sorry again! |

So after seeing the TE which do you personally think is better? The AE MAX or the TE MAX? Im curious as to how much better (asides from engine) or different the 2 are. |
I posted about seeing one in the General room, it was black and I basically said the same thing you said really nothing majorly done to it. the one I saw was at Bankston Nissan Lewisville(Dallas,Tx)!

IMHO It's VERY close, (AE guys don't hate me!) but I guess I'd take the TE. I've always loved the AE, In fact MY 2k2 is a AE 'wannabe'. (sills, pedals, etc) But something about that paint and wheels. For stock wheels they are very distinctive. They make you look at em'! At first, I wasn't that impressed, but the more I looked at the car, the more I liked it. But remember, it's $1,000... That's not cheap. But very nice, nonetheless. :) |

My friend begged me to install an amp for him today so I didn't get to go out there. I will definitely go later in the week (prolly Friday) and bring back tons of pics.
|
There aren't pics of the wheels. Where are they?
|
That's what I want to know...
are they the same as the AE (stock with a more glossy finish) or something really different?
|
its a sweet car to me its the same as the 2k2 i did not get to test drive it today but will do so tommorow :) sweet interior and stock rims are NICE! ill let you guys know how she drives and if i likes im buying :D

Originally posted by Newman what color was it? was it one of the new colors (Polished Titanium or Sheer Silver) and, what makes you choose the TE over the AE? the AE definitely had a bunch of differences from the regular 01 SE but the TE doesnt seem veyr different at all. Re: TE over the AE. You're right, If I had to say which one was a more significant upgrade from THAT YEAR'S model, then I'd say the AE. I just like the sheer silver of the TE w/ those new wheels. Sharp... :) |
Re: Re: Re: 2K3 Max Titanium Ed. looks REAL sharp!
Played hooky from work earlier today and went up to Bankston Nissan in Lewisville.
They have 3 Titanium Editions in stock. Like the sheen on the rims. A lot. The stitching was a bit underwhelming. It looks like you're paying more to have off-color thread in your seats. Meh. Like the titanium console (in the center) though.:cool: <Buuuurrrp> 'Scuse me. |

Originally posted by Texasguy Went by Courtesy Nissan in Richardson on Saturday and they didn't have one. What I did notice was some CHEAP *** '02 SE's on the lot. I mean leather and auto for under $27K. Looks like the Altima effect is in full force. Advice to those who are wanting to get a new Maxima, wait until the end of August and swoop in steal one of the last '02s off the lot. I got mine full loaded at a rock bottom price...last one on the lot just because it had black leather. Hello, hasn't anyone heard of auto tinting and windshield cover during those hot Dallas summers. |
I can't wait to go check out these new 2K3's!! I looked on www.nissandriven.com. It says that on the SE, the TE pkg, Leather pkg, and Merdian pkg are all required option pkgs. So when I configured "my max" with everything but floor mats and Navi, it came to $30K and some change. That sheer silver sounds nice...how about the Platinum color? Anybody seen that yet?
|
Just to clarify... the TE does cost $999 extra, but that includes the Bose package and side airbags. I was just at the dealer over the weekend discussing this car (they didn't have any yet). A loaded '03 TE will actually cost over $600 LESS than a loaded '02 SE! The rims, door sills, stitching and trim will all be a freebee. :D

Do you have to have the leather package to get the TE package?:confused: |

what size tires the TE come wit? 17"?
im so glad my SE tires are 17" oem. :) |

Originally posted by AudioMan Unless the Nissan Site is wrong or has a glitch when configuring, you do not have to have leather. It does not make you choose leather with the TE package. I got my MSRP* to $28,885.00 with a 6-Speed SE with HLSD and Meridian. It does make you get the sunroof. That means that you could probably walk with a deal of about $26,5. oh okay.i was mistaken. what i was thinking was that if you choose leather on an SE, you are required to get the Titanium Edition. so, Titanium Edition is required in order to get leather but leather is NOT required to get Titaniumn Edition. i just had it reversed. |

Re: Re: 2K3 Max Titanium Ed. looks REAL sharp!
Originally posted by warrlocked What exactly is different about the door locks? Are you referring to the power door lock control or the manual lock-tab ? Very little change... but the 'buttons' themselves are slightly different than my 2k2 SE. I don't know if it's only on the TE model or if its new for 2k3. But again, all it is just the buttons. the writing on them, and shape is 'slightly' different. ;) |

If it is I hope that stuff wears better than the crap we have in the 2K-2k2 Max's. I had mine replaced about a year ago...and they are starting to get scratched up again.:bawling: |

Originally posted by Rob'sAE Hey, thats your local dealer? Thats where I bought my AE from. Please don't tell me you take your car to those ninkumpoops. If you do and have a decent service manager tell me who it is so I can talk to him. I have to take my car all the way to southwest infinity to get good service. BTW we should meet up some time, I live right arount the corner and could walk there in 5 minutes. I'm off of 290/Jones Rd area. Sounds like you're around that area as well. Your AE is SHARP!! I noticed from one of your pic's that you took it in front of the waterfall at Williams Tower (use to be Transco Tower). Coincidently, that's where I work! Small world. You're right, we may have to meet up someday. I read a thread a while back that some H-town guyz were going to try put something together to get everyone to meet up. Haven't heard anything... ;) |
Re: Re: Re: 2K3 Max Titanium Ed. looks REAL sharp!
Originally posted by CHAZMAX Actually, where I bought my 2k2 was Mossy Nissan. But I'm definately closer to Baker Jackson. You're absolutely right about Baker Jackson!! They don't have a clue... I had good experiences w/ Mossy so far. I'm off of 290/Jones Rd area. Sounds like you're around that area as well. Your AE is SHARP!!
