I went to the nissan/subaru dealer near my house and there it was my 06 SE with 17k miles sitting on black 20" rims. I test drove it and loved it but I had never seen a modded maxima before so I went home and went on youtube to see what a maximas tru potential was and then I came apon a video of CHERNMAXX and the red beast and saw that I could do that to my car so I went back and bought it for 19K and the rest is history lol. Enjoy my tale.

Sorry to be off topic, but did you even test drive the Sti to compare the Maxiam? To me it would be a no-brainer taking the Sti over the Maxima. I think the Sti would have a lot more potential than the Maxiam. I dont see maxima's on a racetrack.

My two best friends both have incredible cars. One is a 09 evo X and the other an 08 STI and I have driven both and like you said no brainer. But at the time I had no car and needed one to get to school. Searched for about 6 months for an STI in my $ range and couldn't find one so I had to go with the maxima. And I am actually pretty happy with my choice. My car has a lot of comforts the other 2 don't like leather seats. Built in GPS, and a lot more room for taxing people around. But no doubt would much rather have the STI

I always liked maximas ever since i first drove in one. It was so much more comfortable on longer trips and trips into Chicago (horrible streets) then my 240. I told myself i must have a 4th gen ever since then. Plus i love the way they look
