Have had my 2k maxima since the first week it was released and have been thrilled with it.

My mom has moved in with my and there is NO way I am letting her park her POS 91 camery in my drive way so I bought her a 99 I30. Had a friend in florida go check this one out: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...501357632&rd=1 and he said it is in Amazing shape and drives great. So I called the guy (he is at a football game) and got it for $8600. said he will pull it once he gets home.

But what do I need to know about it? Easy mods, things to look out for, or anything else? Yea, I know it is just another maxima so it pretty much has the same issues.

Thanks

I test drove a bunch of Maximas and an i30, and I ended up with the i30 just a few days ago, despite it being a bit more expensive and a couple years older than the Max's I was looking at. While they're 95% the same, the other 5% is definitely noticable. The i30 has a quieter ride, and for someone who is used to a 91' Camry, I'm sure your mother will love it as-is.

You're surely familiar with the mods you can do on a Maxima - the same apply to the i30. Personally, I'm hesitant to change intake, exhaust, shocks, etc because it will take away some of the luxury feel.

It's all a matter of preference... congratulations on your new purchase!
