Maxima/Altima confusing annoying
I'm outside cutting my grass and the kid across the street comes up to me and goes ha now what sucka my mom has your car. I go I didn't know I had a Altima he goes yeah same car as yours dummy so I opened the garage and he saw the back of mine points and goes oh I thought mine was that one yours is a Maxima.
Then the same day a guy in the neighborhood goes nice Altima or is that a Maxima. I hear this on a weekly basis.
my car at the top random Altima at the bottom
What's the resemblance where are they getting these two cars confused?

Headlights, taillights, and front grill are really all that look different between the two. From a distance they look even more alike. Ticks me off that nissan chose this route, however who am I to complain right. To the OP, debadge and get a body kit. Really all you can do.

LOL, these were exactly my thoughts after initially reading the post.....
#12
I feel you. it hasn't happened to me yet, but if it does i would feel some type of way. I don't want me max confused with that thing, especially here in nyc where every damn cabby is in a damn altima, almost just as much as a camry. them cars have lost there luster in my opinion like every car cabby's use....smh.

This entire thread is just bunch'o bull$$it about some kid, who won't let him cut the grass, calling him a whacko or sucka, or whatever because he thinks it's an Altima. Then some Chinese dude who can't read or speak tells him its Altimizia. I mean, question to OP: what city and state is this whole story taking place in? Is it like North of country or South or where? I see some nice homes and condos in the background on picture, must be decent neighborhood. Just curious!

Boy nobody made up any stories his mom just bought a white Altima because she totalled her 05 Tahoe. And this is Texas but hopefully relocate to Los Angeles soon. And yeah the dude at the store was lost in space like the kid too!

OK you decided to repost to make this thread even more ridiculous than it was before. Yea, I forgot to see you are in TX, and decided to delete the post. Now we all see it is, in fact, some hole in Texas where people can't read and call each other whacko and dummy just because they think you are driving an Altima. Did you finish cutting your grass that day or can it wait till you move to Los Angeles?
Ouch man! Texas is a great place, don't knock it till you try it~!

acercomp71 you're not hurting anybody's feeling especially mine by showing out in the forum i'm up here laughing. If you don't like my post keep moving simple as that because i'm sure everybody who reads this is gonna agree with what i'm saying. If you wanna have fun stick around if not then go find something else to do get a life dude stop hating i'm sure your parents raised you better than that right? or maybe you've been hurt or your life or been through things but be civil. the way you're acting is not impressive so be cool and have fun with everybody you can do better than that.

I am not trying to hurt your feelings boy. And FYI I am a trained professional with a degree, and I get paid a lot of money for what I do and I have a life, thank you very much. I was just asking why are you wasting bandwidth with your ridiculous posts. Who cares about some kid who lives across the street and calls your car an Altima? And then OK you got some "moderator" privileges and decided to make a fool out of me by putting my post back. Did you get paid this month by admin for your sorry a$$ moderator's work? Or are you a sorry **** admin here, perhaps? And let me ask you one more time- did you finish the most important part of your day that day- did you cut the grass or did you spend all that day explaining someone what make, year, and model your car is?
Bandwidth? Are you serious?
For having such hostility here, you're sure worried about this dude's grass. Calm down Donald Trumph.
#28
TexasTex hahaha Trumph got some issues dude when you raised in a house with a Military Boot instructor and with somebody in the field of mental health you see through people he's got some anger problems. He aint about to respond back to a cool dude like you and be cool. I sure wonder what his boss would think if he saw him acting out like that. I'm just 27 and none of stuff bothers me.

Oh yeah you got some military background on you I dont have nothing against him if he wants to be nice i'm cool with that. Moderator lol? not me. When the 2015 Maxima comes out I hope it looks way different from the Altima.

Yea, I agree. It's kind of lame they made two different lines of cars cross. They do look very similar.
#32
Whoooo they say that 2015 is gonna be hot you probably be the first to get one. From the concept pictures it looks way different than the Altima. Before 2002 you always knew the difference between and Altima and a Maxima
#33
I need to take a look at the concept pics. Yea man, it was always easy. I like both cars, but i like the Maxima a bit more. The Altima, contrary to facts I guess, always seemed like the less sportier economical choice. IDK, I'll probably get ripped over that but whatever.
#34

I think not... Altima with the 3.5L engine was fasttttt and loaded enough for me...
Haha, we'll see about that!

I guess I was just use to the days before that when they were what I described. My HS GF's mother had one and it just gave me the engrained feeling of a cheaper, more economical car.
I agree Chris and that's a sharp **** car man.

When they kept my SL at the dealership for a week to do the timing chain They gave me a loaner 2010 Altima 2.5S. I wanted to be back in my ride bad. I missed it I didn't like that Altima it was just different! That CVT was about to drive me crazy. It sound like 100 year old bees bzzzzzzzzz zzz zzzz.

02 to 04 is a 2.5L 4 speed automatic The V6 from 02 to 04 was 240 then 05 to 06 250 the S-E-R 260.
is more like sheeps screaming with the 2.5L when you accelerate not as bad as the 07 to 12 with CVT the bee sound the acceleration is louder.
