What interior color? Any options? Can you share the price or #'s ? I'm deciding between a white or silver platinum.

Having trouble posting pics

If you can see my profile there are pics there, I'm having trouble posting pics with my threads, I have no idea how to do it? My Max is white with black interior, rear diffuser verde 19" quantum wheels, underbody lighting, tint to come next week.

Yes

Yes verde 19" I had them on my 2010 SV sport with bigger tires, had to scale back though, this max has smaller wheel openings, less clearance

Looks fantastic man. Those wheels are beautiful. Congrats!

By the way, when you get a chance can you post a rear shot so we can see the black diffuser? I think you're the first one on this forum to have that installed. Just wanna see how it looks. Thanks.

Lowering springs

My les schwab contact says there are no lowering springs on the market, and I have searched the web for them, if you hear of anything will you let me know? I want to lower it as soon as I ca makes a big difference in the looks department.

Thanks for posting a pic. The chrome accent on the diffuser looks good.

I didn't realize that a roof spoiler was even an option on this car.

Someone else on here installed Eibach lowering springs from their 7th Gen and they worked fine.

I'm looking into having the dealer put the 19" SR wheels and tires on the SL trim when I buy.
Wondering what the cost will be.

It doesn't resemble either one of those. You will learn than a few posters here like to say things to try and start a fight and just like to be negative. Most of use just ignore it. So just do the same and enjoy the forum. Welcome again!

How does the underbody lighting work? You can turn it on or off, correct?

Lights

Lights only come on when doors are opened, the dim slowly after doors are closed. It's illegal to have them on while driving in California.

Pardon me while I drool.

I am after a silver Platinum. I love the white, but have been driving a white 7th gen with premium and nav pkg for almost seven years (built in Sept 2008). Would have already had my Platinum except we are trying to renovate a home we just bought so we can move and sell our current home. We keep getting home very tired and dirty after 9 PM, and that is not a good time to hit the car lots. Another problem is that none of the six Nissan dealers closest to me have had even one silver Platinum yet. But I will order from the factory if one doesn't appear near me soon.

I had 7th gen SV sport/premium

Pics are posted above of my white 7th gen 2010 SV sport/premium. I had for 5 years 20,000 miles, they gave me $20 k in trade for new one. I love white but had to search for it, I almost got gunmetal or silver but found the only 1 out of 2 in my state.

For some reason I thought you already had an 8th gen. I too love the white, had a white 92 & 02, but I still plan on getting another silver Max. I think the black goes great with the silver.


By the way...nice ride 1trkmax.

1trkmax (or anyone that knows),

Can you give more specs on the wheels and tires....

I pick up my Platinum tomorrow from the dealer. The only thing I can't stand are the 18" rims. I LOVE the stance of yours and want something similar to fill up the fender gap, and a little wider tire.....yet I do not want to deal with tire rub, etc.

Any info would be amazing.
