I love the Maxima's split folding rear seat
I was able to carry a small ladder with the trunk closed. I have discovered that the G35 does not have folding seats, only a small pass-through. Let's see you get a ladder through that pass-through. Anyone else love the split folding rear seat feature?

I was really upset the other day because I was going to buy a shelf at Ikea but the pass through was 1 inch too small to fit the box. I don't know why Nissan decided to make the whole so small and such a strange shape. They should have made it rectangular in shape.

I had a Mazda 626 before this. The opening was WAY bigger on that car. I can't fit anything through the Maxima one.
But the 626 was a piece of crap.......

I guess Infiniti assumed that the G35 driver won't need to haul anything because he will be so busy flinging the car around corners and blasting thru the straights. Bad decision in my opinion.

On the 2k2 you actually lock it with your main (black) key from inside the cabin.
I thought all 5th gens were the same?

Heck I wanted the AE when that came out, and I'll probably want the 2003 TE too, and the 2004 and so on, can't have everything. I'll just keep my 2000 it's good.
They changed some stuff on the 2001, and 2002 they made more changes, guess the key is easier and not easily disabled or unlocked... but I'm sure you can still open it from the trunk, inside that is, just in case you or some unsuspecting person gets stuffed, oops, I meant get locked in there...

I hate to say it but my 89 civic is a better cargo carrier than my Max. The pass through openning on the Max is too small for anything other than skis or snowboards. When I got my bike it came in a box that wouldn't fix in the max but fit like a charm in my Civic. I guess that's the price you have to pay for a stiffer rear end but it's annoying nonetheless.

soopermax02,
I tried turning the lock but it wouldn't turn. I assume you are talking about the slotted plastic cap? It is turned the opposite way the other side is that opens but I can't turn it even with a screwdriver.

a screwdriver won't work (unless you're intent of destroying it). Use the main key (black) to open it. The Valet key won't work either.
