Hi all, I'm Jay from Chicago. I'm currently 14 and on my way to get on the mean streets of Chicago. My dad bought a 1997 Burgundy (Purplish) GXE a couple years back. Just recently my mom bought a Brand New Super Black 2002 SE. It's pretty funny since my mom has the better ride than my dad. Anyway, you guessed it, I saw the Maxima in fast and furious and I was like oh sweet, and went bragging off to my friends about it. All my friends were like "Maxima, it's a family car just like the Civic". And I know the Maximas are just more than family cars. So now I have a choice, well the actual decision isn't gonna be made until I can drive but I wanna get the feeling of "Yeah, there's my car right there". My dad has 75000 miles on his Maxima but I hear Maximas can go over 200000 miles and still run fine. I'm not sure which Maxima to take, or I can buy my own Maxima, hehe, Is there room for 3 in that bed? Anyway, I know there are alot more mods out there for the 4th gen Maxima then the 5th. I don't know, most of my friends would tell me to take the newer car but I need input from you guys first. Thanx alot and I'm looking forward to the Maxima community.

both 4th and 5th is about the same. just depends on which exterior you like better.

Ok, call me crazy but your are actualy considering a 97 maxima with 75K miles over a 2002 Maxima? Wow, I wish I had that desision to make free of charge. The 2002 Max is way better then any 4ht gen maxima, I like it a bit more then 2000-2001 max's too. Who can pass up a 255HP{HID's} engine and better looks when compared to a 190 HP old body style car? Call me crazy but thats what I think and I am sticking to it . BTW I love my 95 max..

id go with the 2002 maxima......your 97 max will probably have alot of miles by the time your old enough to drive anyways.

Dont take this the wrong way...

I wouldnt worry about this right now. Wait till your 16, then worry. Then be quiet and consider yourself lucky if they give you either one.
