New owner!

Hello, some of you may have read my other post (awful dealer experiences) well, this is my formal post to intruduce my self and my newly acquired treasure!
first I'm miguel (aka JOMIL) im 29 and in college for business, I loved the maxima ever since I had for rental in 2009 when it first came out. so finally I sold my mazda 3 hatchback and gave in to a 2013 Nissan Maxima SV Sport Tuscan Red. It only has 24,000, comes with the cold weather package but no navi and nitrogen filled tires. I paid 21,000 and after a 500 rebate the total came to 20,500. the only bad thing was the high interest which was 4.89 but I'm planning on refinancing after a month, anyways I do have a few questions...
Any good aftermarket items I should into?
issues to look out after?
CVT maintenance? (last car was 5speed auto)
what mats do you guys use?
and last, I have some pretty heavy friends (350lbs and 400) will it be safe to drive them around in the back seat?

If you are on your phone it gives you the option, on top of the text box there is an image logo, just press that and choose the image

Welcome aboard!
An aftermarket rear sway bar is the best bang for the buck on theses cars.
You should have no problem hauling your friends around.
Search this site for information that has been covered or answered before.
Have fun!
I changed CVT fluid on mine at 50,000 miles just for piece of mind.

Stupid question are sway bars to help with the swaying of the car when I go over bumps etc? And if not what would you recommend for that?

I think Racingline stopped selling their RSB. If you want one you will have to look for used units or just go with the Stillen. Overall, the rear swaybar is the best dollar for dollar mod you can do.
