my 2 maxima's
on the 2nd one.
The yellow one has potential. HATE it the way it is now, but it has potential. Dropped with the stock bumpers and a Stillen kit, remove the hood decal, remove all the visors, and clean up the headlights a little.
what happened to the centerline wheels? more pics of sadler's old ride, if that's what it is, please
edit** i couldn't remember if it was Tony's (araffio (sp?)) old black max or Jason's that got vandalized and wrecked in Daytona Beach so i did some looking into and found that it was Sadler's after all.
so basically Jason's car was torn up to hell and i'm not sure if he ever sold it or not. giving you the benefit of the doubt, i would like to know how you got your hands on his car if it is his. it was one of my favorite max's after all.

Well, I had contemplated not even posting about it, but now that luke made the video of my car I guess I can somewhat give everyone the scoop.
My car was broken into and vandalized 2 weeks ago while in daytona for tuner bash car show. Over saturday night, after the show, while my car was parked in the hotel garage my car was dismantled. I am not going to post any pictures because I couldn't bare to take any myself and the ones my roomate took went to the insurance company and I told him I don't even want them on my computer.
The passenger rear window was busted out, and from their "they" went to town on the car. First cutting the power wire to the battery behind the rear seat, then tearing the entire center part of the dash apart; leaving only a busted up tv unit with no faceplate and no remote. They broke the top vents, ripped out the hazard/defrost switches (broke them and cut the wires so i have no blinkers), yanked the digital ac controls to pieces, cutting some of the wires, pulling my s-afc2 and blitz TT out of the dash and completely destroying the custom dash piece that held them in place. The dash itself has a bunch of rips in it, but most importantly the center framing is bent to hell and where it's plastic is busted completely. From there they ripped out the tweeters and 6.5's from the doors and ruined the door panels. They took the brain from under the front seat and yanked all the wires clear out of place. The headrest's and 6.5" tv's where taken off the front and from there they decided to slash the front seats on the bottom, just for good measure I guess. They busted up my PS2 bracket and took the PS2 out of it.
If this wasn't enough they went to the back of the car and drove a screwdriver into my brand new carbon fiber trunk lid repeatadly, mostly in places that don't involve opening the trunk lid. They jammed a screw driver in between my bumper and trunk lid a few times and finally got the trunk lid open, cracking the frame of it and busting a bolt out of the trunk arm in the meantime. They pried both amps from my fiberglass amp rack, and one subwoofer from it's pod. However they couldn't get it out with the 19" wheel in the way, so they broke the mount for it in half, while scratching the wheel like crazy and ruining fiberglass and hours of fabrication. They luckily didn't damage the sub pods, but they did mess up the amp rack and wheel nicely.
Just to rub the salt in my wounds, they keyed the entire back half of the car as well as scratching the roof a couple times (all down to the metal). I guess one good thing from all this, was that they dropped the safc-2 outside my car and forgot it; without this I would have had a hell of a time driving the car, if at all.
So needless to say, I have not had a very fun couple of weeks and whether the insurance company totals the car or not I am done with it. What is left of the car is either going to be cleaned up and fixed and I will sell the car, or I will be stripping the car down and parting it out. The damages totaled out at $26,530.00. I have absolutely no interest in fixing this car up again (I already put a down payment on a g35 coupe and ordered some 20" 3pc wheels for it), so I guess I will be taking offers on the car, whenever I hear from insurance on what they are going to do.
Oh, and my insurance company has been pretty crappy through the whole deal, so a word to the wise: If you modify your car, get it in writing from your insurance company that they will replace things. Even with receipts for everything they don't want to cover stuff.
Good day to you all, and I guess watch for for sale posts in the 4th gen forums as well as something in the maxima's for sale if it comes to that.

don't expect too much maxima (cefiro) support in japan. i've spent many, many hours going through translated japanese websites and most of whats available has made it over here.
