How big was the largest passenger to ride in your Maxima?
Yesterday a coworker and I had to drive to a nurse's home. My coworker is so big, I didn't think he could get into the front passenger seat. It looked as if he were on top of my dash. At first I felt bad, but then I was wondering if my seat were getting damaged or not. I would say he was about 6', 400 lbs. It was an awkward experience!

Not just one passenger... leaving my aunt's college graduation, and me, my "sizable" aunt, my pops, mom, my uncle, and my cousin all piled into what was then my dad's Max. Seven people, and one car. Glad I had 190 hp on hand. I don't know about the shocks, though.
Saw my car in the reflection. It looked like some invisible foot was stepping on the trunk.

i had 9 people in mine including me. i had to drive up a hill and i heard the muffler bang on the ground, come to find out later that the piping broke and i ended up getting the greddy after that.
and last summer my roommate and his brother, both over 250lbs, were in my car with the ac on and i could hardly take off on a hill with my 5spd

The biggest single person was 6'3 275. Once I had 4 200+ pound people in the back seat, me 220, and another person in the passenger seat over 200. the car looked slammed! luckily I was riding on stock springs, struts back then

My one buddy rode in my car is about 6'3, 300 lbs, it wasn't odd or anything. What I find odd is when I'm riding in his Trans Am, I just have to wonder how he is able to fit, but he does.

we once had 10 people in an avalon. 2 up front, 4 sitting in the back 1 lying across them, and 3 brave souls in the trunk. we ended up circling a parking lot going over speed bumps with my friend assuring the people in the trunk that we're almost there.

How in the f*ck is it possible to fit 7 people in the back of a Mirage or 9 people in a Maxi? WTF? The most I've ever had in my car was 6. 4 girls in the back, and us 2 guys up front -- which wasn't much of a big deal, but there definitely wasn't room for more.

i think just under 300lbs....car was fine though
want to talk about a bad experience...i had a buddy who was 6' 5" and easily over 350lbs in my old 93 sentra. that sucked. there was a dip in the road and the front part of the exhaust hit and cracked the pipe. i drove the sentra with 5 teenagers in it before...thing was scary. it didnt not want to stop with all that weight in it.
