cc, tilt, r/def, st/cass, 51 month lease.

What's wrong with the ad? Nothing...except the picture of the car clearly shows that it is a 5th generation Maxima SE. I don't know whether it was a misprint or not...but it surprised me.

Another one of my favorites is when the dealers advertise this: "'97 Nissan Maxima SE" and then you look at the picture of it and it's a GXE, or GLE...or when you get a picture of an Altima that is advertised as a Maxima.

I'm convinced that dealers know absolutely nothing! I think they think that WE are the stupid ones, and we don't do our research before we purchase a car!!

I think the top ad I mentioned was a misprint, but I'm constantly getting pictures of Altimas and Maxima GXE's that are advertised as SEs. Maybe I'm just blowing off steam because I have been dreaming of a '97 SE for some time now and haven't found one, but has this ever bothered anyone else??
