Which came first, the Maxima or the Org?

oh. i thought you were refering to which was first. the org or the car. i was about to slap you in the head for that.
as for me, i found out about the org after getting my max. i found this place only because i was curious to know if there were any maxima related websites for my car. wasn't hit with the mod bug until i learned about the things i can do to the car.

1st came the Max.
in march of 2000, i got a 93 SE and surfed into a "different" 3rd generation site, everyone there was on the org as well, so then I got to the org and this summer the old max was sold and i now drive a 98 gxe.

I owned the car a long time before I got into the sites... actually the site that inspired me to keep looking for a community and made me really want to mod the car was Jeff K's MegaMax site. I remember looking at that site starting in early 2000 and from there trying to find something like the .org.

I was a member of several Maxima boards long before I had my Max. I think the only person who was a memeber for longer than me before purchase was Brian Won.

Hehe I remember Brian Won. He is the king of the Ars Technica forums right now. I think the criteria of being called a "moldy oldie" here is to have been included in the AtBBSt stories. You and I definitely qualify.

I really feel moldy oldie today after puting in my H&R's and Tokicos. Love em.

I joined the Org first while I was shopping for a Maxima... of course I'd also been LURKING for months (and months!) before that, trying to learn all I could and drooling over all these sweet pics of other people's 3rd Gens!
I think I found out about the Org while I was looking for detailed info on the Maxima, which sounded to me like a German-like sports sedan with a V6 and stick - exciting stuff to someone driving a beater!
About 2.5-3 months after joining I bought my (non-ticking!) SE 5-speed. I thought about changing my name to something with some car info in it (like "silverbullet"), but decided against it.
My story!

I bought my Maxima years ago and did all of my mods the first week that I had it. Then, it was a year later when I came across Evan's Maxima site, then on to Andi's BBS, and so on. But I've been a member of MBCA for years, in preparation for getting my next car- an E Class.
