Same story here! I even went ahead and started a website about them. www.club-s12.org. Fantastic cars.

Swapped over to the Max once the S12 started becoming more a burden than a fun daily driver.

 

2000 bmw 325i , but then I crashed it and fell in love with Maximas!

 

1992 Honda Accord EX auto (First car, sold in 2006 with almost 200k)
2001 Honda CR-V auto (Gave it to my brother in 08)
2003 Toyota Matrix 5spd (enjoyed having a 5spd but the car really wasn't my style. Sold in Feb. 09)

Current - 2001 I30t (Bought from a family member in Feb. 09 with 45k miles)

 

I used to ride a 2000 Toyota Corolla, got rid of it because it had fried piston rings.

 

1970(ish) bug (totalled) -> 85 Dodge Reliant (totalled x2...first go didn't her in enough for my pops to let her go) -> 93 Chevy Corsica (back to the folks) -> 91 Saturn SC (donated at 300k miles) -> 98 Max SE (still have her), 97 Villager, 02 'Rolla, 07 CX-9, 07 Z4 3.0si AND...03 Max SE! (I'm not a car dealer)

(almost forgot the white beauty... 96 I30t (engine swapped) totalled 2 mos later somewhere after the villager and before the 'rolla)

 

1989 civic Si hb. d16z6 - blewed the **** up
1993 Eg hatch - auto, daily, d15z1 lots of CF parts.. - traded for bone stock manual 92'
1992 eg hatch- b18c1 swap, dropped, etc.. - sold

1992 GSR swapped hatch..










im not brennan, thats another guy on a dif fourm that snapped the pics.

 

did a mod ***out my curse word or is it automatic, just asking so it wont happen again..

 

nearly all of the big ones star out themselves

 

1999 monte carlo z34 loved it!

 

not bad, thanks for the ****ing insight





















jp mods, dont ban me

 

This is my first car.

 

i had a 96 s-10, ext cab, power windows & locks. Standard shift, i put a flow master on it with dual chome tips. Loved the truck until the crack shaft fell out!! LOL!

 

I was rollin on a '97 acura tl 2.5..AKA honda inspire UA2

 

2000 Pontiac Grand Prix, still have it parked in the driveway.

 

Most recently I drove an '89 Taurus SHO Nearly the same color as my Max, with most of the same option sets - nice stereo, cloth/power seats, sunroof, 5 speed.
I feel almost like the Max is the spiritual successor to my good old SHO

 

03 Spec V

 

A well optioned 2004 Bonneville SE
I had racked up 89k miles in 3 years and it was time to trade.
It was a reliable commuter and gave me zero problems but it really doesn't compare to my just purchased 2008 Max SE.
I also have mint '96 Lexus SC400 with 86k original miles but she's a garage queen and perhaps it's time to sell her after buying the Max to clear up some garage space. It was my performance machine but after buying a 2009 Kawasaki Concours C1400 last spring that's all the performance I can use right now.

First maxima and am very impressed so far so good . Only been 2 months but i like it .

 

First, 1992 Toyota Previa


Second 91 Nissan Sentra




The sentra was really Fun, The previa was a head turner because no one knew what it was, Had 2 sun roofs, one was huge, it was rear wheel drive. fun as hell also.

 

^ that Previa is AWESOME, i love Previa. and you can drift those things like crazy

 

Used to have a 97 Jetta GLX - GIAC chip, intake, exhaust, and 60/60 cup kit. Looking back, I did a pretty gross job on the car lol I loved what this car sounded like though!



Ditched that because the chains were about to go on the motor and I got a 94 Jetta GL (power NOTHING, complete sleeper though) but it had a 1.8T swap in it with the rare Reflex Tuning conversion kit. Car had about 250whp, was light as ****, and MOVED really good. Ran 16lbs daily, but this thing was a maintenance nightmare! That's why I got the Maxima.



That car was such a sleeper, kinda wish I still had it as a project car.

 

Yeah i had a blast with it, I also owned a awd model with a super charger.

 

Oh God! I had an old 91 Toyota Celica. The paint was fading and the clutch was constantly burning out on me. I loved that car though! I'll always be a fan of the Celica.
