What is the major differences I will find between an 08 and 09. I'm looking to make a purchase and wanted to see which way I should go.

 

lets see,
engine 255hp on 08; 290hp on 09
09 has a little better safety rating
09 has a shorter turning radius
same weight
same transmissions
08 has 8 speaker audio vs 09 has 9 speaker audio

for the most part it comes down to personal preference and price.

 

08 is the last of the 6.5 generation. 09 is the 7th generation.
Different platforms and body. Upgraded engine, etc.

Pretty much depends on which body style you like better

 

Look at both. Good luck with your decision

 

Congratulations! You have been really busy here. Bump one more ancient thread and you reach the 15 post minimum for your own thread. Good luck with your Maxima.
