We have quite a few of these driving around New Zealand but I doubt theres many in the US.. I think the wagons are popular with the car audio guys.. i prefer the sedan personally

disclaimer/ pls don't flame me if this is a repost, maybe should be in other rides section but not everyone goes there.

Cefiro Wagon comes in 2, 2.5 and 3.0 (not many around)

 

That looks like an A32 with something GROWING out of it!

Thanks for the pics mate, I love to see rare Maxima related stuff.

 

actually i wouldnt mind driving that. maybe if it was a little shorter. but i love the front bumper!

 

Interesting...

 

phew not a repost then

The dimensions of the wagon aren't that much different..

Sedan
Exterior dimensions (LxWxH), mm 4760 x 1770 x 1410
Wagon
Exterior dimensions (LxWxH), mm 4800 x 1770 x 1455

 

 

^^^ That front end is amazing.

 

true that, man...

 

nice

 

I always liked the station wagons, especially the sleepers. HEHE dodge magnum r/t is hte newest wagon sleeper imo. But that thing with a turbo or small twin turbos. "I gotta go get some groceries" *sound of peeling rubber*

Wonder what it would take to get that over here to america.

 

looks nice for a wagon, and I love the front bumper....possible new body mod for me

 

Actually speaking of wagons and especially the magnum, AirMattDogg one of the longest standing orgers who had the infamous "orange maxima" sold it in favor of one. He said the magnum is reliable, fast and he likes it alot the last time I talked to him.

 

I'd hit it......

 

Real nice front bumper on the white one. Nice side skirts.

 

front looks very nice, i agree. not a fan of the rear, though. not bad for a wagon, but the way the rear pillar doesn't stand out from the window seems kind of odd. but definitely for a rare car!

 

Imagine importing one and swapping in a VQ35 w/bolt ons! That would be one hot sleeper.

 

I've always loved wagons too, especially when I used to bike a lot. But there aren't a lot to choose from currently and none that I'd trade my Max for. There were some rumors of Stagea wagons being seen stateside for marketing tests, but haven't heard anything more, so I guess the idea didn't fly. Too bad, because that's one wagon I would seriously consider, especially if it got the Infiniti treatment. As for this Cefiro, I'm not digging the styling so much. Too last decade for me, like the old Accord, Camry, Tarus, and Saab wagons. Oddly enough, Volvo wagons still look fresh, despite not having changed all that much over the years.

 

True that...I actually really like the front and it's profile, the rear is blahh!!! I would custum retrofit the 97-99 tails, smoked(y not, all honda ricers do it to their civics or wtv). Also, i like the 97-99 SE rims on it....looks really nice, i would so drive that

 

These are the typical specs of the Importer Stagea Wagons here

Nissan Autech body kit

Brembo brakes,factory tints, turbo timer
factory 16" bbs whls, Factory exhaust and airbox.
Non crashed vehicle
this car has been fully serviced,including cambelt,spark plugs,all oils, by sti hi tech

 

This is probably one of the best looking wagons on the market today IMO. Just that we can't get it here...yet. I wouldn't mind an Evo wagon either, but again, not available in the US.

Check that: The Audi and Volvo wagons aren't bad looking either, but ironically I actually wouldn't touch any of the wagons I mentioned because of reliability concerns....which leaves me still holding on to my Max...which ain't a bad thing.

 

LOL. Well Nissan stop selling the wagon version for the Maxima since the intro of the 4th gen. just like Honda Accord hasn't made a wagon since the last generation. Seem like people are more favored with SUV and Mini Van. So it does make no sense to make a wagon version of their sedan counterpart.

 

my brother's wag .... not 2 bad and plenty of room for his subs & two kids. no reliabilty concerns so far...

 

I remember seeing that model in a hobby store. Debated on buying it. I should have.

 

Despite being an older car, that front end looks very fresh. I was surprised though cause i thought it had a kit on from the original pics but then i saw the brochure scan and that was yet another pleasant surprise

 

Well the Cefiro wagon above is a Nissan 4th Gen maxima with a different badge

 

..I think its more like an I30.

 

which is pretty much the same as the 4th gen maxima ay bar nose & tail - all mechanical bits are identical

 

well I thought we were getting meticulous.. and in that casefor me. But good luck arguing with a New Zealander.

 

this wagon rocks !

 

I must agree. I saw one in town yesterday in white and thought to myself "That's one wagon that I wouldn't mind driving!" My dad is fond of the A3 wagon.

This AS3-R is pretty sweet.

 

hells yeah that is a real nice wagon, but I still like the cefiro wagon better

 

I love those Cefiro wagons...wish we had them here! Maybe I'll import one someday...

 

4th gen SE wheels, priceless

 

Cefiro Wagon > I30

 

And lowered to boot!
Wonder if the springs are the same as the stock ones we got.

 

yeah I dont think so, probably just a artist rendering for sales purposes.

 

if only they made 4th gen max/cefiro model

 

Hmm.....wagon....not my style, but the bumper is nice, not sure how any of you would pick a wagon over a sedan though, unless you happen to have 3 kids and be a mom....

 

Volvo wagons can look pretty damn good with mods...and be pretty damn quick too.

 

I always liked the clean lines of those wagons. That one looks pretty good. Is that the guy you dyno'd with?
