Considering Trading TL for Maxima

Ok guys. Again my wife's complaining about how uncomfortable our 2010 TL SH-AWD is on her back with the leather seats. At this point the TL has 22,000 miles and is in great shape and i know if I trade it in now I'll take a beating.

What I was considering was buying her a new 2012 Maxima S with the Limited Edition Package. But my question is can they install Navigation in the car and does it have the Bluetooth?

These are the two features she really loves about the TL.
All comments welcome.

They wont do NAV because they use that to basically make you spend more money on the Sports Package with Tech Package or the Premium Package. But I do believe the 2012 Maxima S Limited Edition Package has bluetooth also has HIDs and foglights dark rims turn signals in mirrors and some other stuff.

Would be a whole lot easier to just get the tech package or use portable unit.

Going into the S model, the ride quality wouldn't be much significant honetly, but if you for the Premium one then the ride its slightly better and easier for her to get a custom to it. Personally going from an SH TL to a Maxima is a night and day thing so its something you both would have to look into...

The seats in a S are hard as rocks. You sit on them not in them. That's why i went to a SV, the leather seats are much more comfortable.

If she's uncomfortable in the TL, the maxima will not be a favorable choice... Consider a CPO RL maybe? I am not sure how you feel about buying pre owned, but the TL's ride is more tailored to luxury than the Maxima, so the Maxima certainly wont give her the comfort she's looking for.

Now that I think about it, you're right. Since every car I've had has been on the stiff side so it seems normal to me. Maybe a Buick Lacrosse would be a better option? That car rides like it's on air.
