Convertible 4th gen Maxima sighted in Stamford Connecticut today. At first glance it looked like another rag-top sedan (like old caddies)...After a few moments I realized it was retractable top (or at least looks like it), the molding around top of the doors was custom and very thin. I took 8 pictures on my motorola i860 but am having problems sending the pics to my e-mail...If anyone knows how, please help me out...I will post pics ASAP.






and no.......this is not an april fools joke

 

 

And I thought you were posting an idea... either way, I'll still post what I was going to say: That's gotta look fugly... Original, but fugly.

 

LOL, a converitble Maxima? how bizarre

 

if you have the data cable theres a program that you can get the pics off your phone from.

 

I'm not sure I wanna see those pics... just can't imagine that would look good...

 

Picssssssss !

 

i think it was just a maxima with a canvas top..

 

dooooooooooooooood pics

 

its probably doable. ive seen legend and a crx ragtop. leaks like a mother.

 

PICS!!!! Come on, I want pics!

 

i'm gonna buy that cable, use it once and return it.....hopefully pics will be up today

 

Maxima Convertable? Naaaaaa who would spend that kind of money on a car that really hasn't much value. The cost of making it into a rag top would exceed the original sticker price and probably wouldn't yeild a big return when it was sold.

We had a custom made BMW 850 convertable in our shop last year. The owner told us it cost over 30 grand to have the car converted. Sub frame connectors had to be installed to compensate for the lack of support once the roof was cut off. The car today is valued a little over 50 grand, it's a one of a kind.

 

yeah, there is a convertable maxima out there somewhere. there was a thread about this 6+ months ago. evidently the owner had a lot of dammage to the roof, and just had a soft top installed. not sure how exactly true it is, but I am just repeating what i read... don't kill the messenger.

 

Value is in the eye of the beholder. I don't think u would convert a maxima into a convertable with the intent of making a large profit. I would like to see the pics though...

 

interesting but

 

 

i wanna see pics of that

 

the only thing that i remember that came close to a maxima was the Infiniti

reminds me of the movie Three Kings

No lexus convertable, only infinity

 

I can't find data-cable for the i860 anywhere near here....If there is anyone with the data cable please send me your phone # so I can send u the pics...

 

cant you just send the pics to an email address?

 

I tried and I get an error "Messege can not be sent"

 

You guys are about 3 years behind

blah, but none of the pics work

 

10 char

 

Maybe it's because the pictures are actually 3 years behind..

 

well, yes, thats true, however, this guy had the first convertible max in existence...so im SURE there are pictures hosted somewhere.

 

That guy is still active on here, maybe he will post. Some of the replies said it looks good, I really want to see those pics!

 

pl killer i been driving around stamford never seen this car strange. Love to see some pics though.

 

Get those pics up

 

I think it would look disgusting

 

Some of the people in the forum seemed to like it, I am not going to flame it until I see it...

 

sorry for the language, not trying to be rude or offensive just couldnt resist using the gif file

 

There was one of those on ebay back when I was trying to find a max to buy.
