Hey Y'all,

Pround new 5.5 owner here and I love what you guys have here and I'm real excited to be apart of all this!

Just picked up my Max yesterday; 03 Maxima SE/TE with winter package and Navigation. Black on Black leather with 81,000 Miles, picked it up locally for $6400 :-D

I'm hoping I can do my part and contribute to this great community as you all have! Hope to talk to you guys soon! Hello from Chicago!

 

Yea another chi member welcome theres only a few of us

 

At least tell us if its auto or 6 speed...

Either way, let the mods begin!

 

mods,

can we please get an intro sticky

 

lol!

B

 

A lot of other forums actual have something like. lounge, etc.
Yay for meridian package too.

 

Looks very clean, congrats!

The beauty of a 5th gen Maxima is that even after owning one for years, you find that there are new things to enjoy that you never noticed before.

 

Hey sorry it's auto. It's a family car and my family doesn't like stick and I want everyone to enjoy the car too! I wish it were manual!

I would think there are more Chicagoian members. Yes tints are my first order of business, any local suggestions? Thanks guys!

 

1. there are people from Chicago...in the regional forum
2. TINT...TINT...unless you are getting more than one layer of tint, ITS TINT

 

Nice, and you got a realllly gooood deal on that! Only 81k miles too, nice!

 

Guys, this is a really good idea. However, for it to work new threads like this would have to be folded into the "Newbie Lounge". And that's kind of a moderator thing. A moderator would have to recognize the new thread, and... you know... moderate.

OP, awesome pick-up for a great price. Welcome to the Org.

 

Good A$$ Price!!

 

Thank you so much guys!! I feel right at home here. Sorry hope I didn't post my intro in the wrong section! I can't wait to drive the car everyday. Funny store I've been on if not early to work since I got the car, last time I was ontime to work was 5 months ago :-P. It's just the much fun to drive!

 

Nice grab on the car. The tintS are going to be a nice first touch.

p.s. Sorry about that gun law you gotta have in your city

 

Tints will be my #1 priority. 20% all the way around is what I'm thinking. Oh hood ol' gun law :-D

 

Very clean externally?

 

Welcome, from Chicago too. Pretty good deal you got.

 

Yes, well it has dings and could use some touch up but other than that it's great!

Yay for chicago members!

 

Hola fellow Illinois member

 

How do you do? Btw I don't see anyone posting in the regional section about any Chicago meets? We should set one up.

 

just my little input.I have managed and installed a few forums and if you create a child topic under the main for introductions you wouldnet have to moderate it if you set the permissions correctly.example: main 5th Gen{child} Introductions. i know it works well with IPB board software

 

Welcome, and nice purchase.

 

Again, that's a good idea. But who is going to intervene when a newbie creates an intro thread? The 5th gen forum needs active moderation the way Puppetmaster used to. He was good at it. Best we could hope for would be for the Newbie Lounge catch a majority of introductions, and the occasional "Hi Guys!" thread would just drift away after the forum self-moderates by telling the OP what to do.

On a somewhat on-topic note, seeing a loaded 5.5 SE TE w/84K get bought for only $6400... that's kind of depressing. Good for the new owner, to be sure, but depressing for the rest of us as our cars depreciate. Particularly for me, a member of the increasingly rare Original Owners Club.

 

amazing car you got there only wish mine was the same. i have a regular old 6 speed se

 

great pick up and price thats for sure. g/l with it to you and the family man

 

Congrats on the Max and welcome to the Org

 

It's great being part of the Org, I just hope my car can be half as great as all of yours! Thanks again for all the warm welcome's!

 

and if veterans try and self moderate this place and suggest something to clean this place up, they are labeled as "mean" so its a lose lose

 

Your particular style of helpfulness seems to have been reasonably self-moderated so far.

I like the "New Member Introductions" sticky idea. See if you can make it happen.

 

Quick question guys. 00-01 tail lights fit the 03 correct? I'm looking to get the black ones for my 03. Found some on Certifit.com for $113 for the pair.

 

There's a thread for this...Don;t jack this poor dudes thread
Check the sticky's.. you need to change the harness.

 

Haha. Didn't mean to hijack my own thread :-D

 

He's the OP, haha.

 

Well damnit OP, go search the sticky's.

 

noooooooo.
if its a 00/01 se going into 02/03 se the harness is the same and a direct swap, if the tail lights didn't come with it just reuse your harness off your current tail lights

 

Haha NmexMAX you just pulled a chrome91

 

If anything, you're almost up to his status.



I was going by this:


http://forums.maxima.org/5th-generat...02-03-fit.html

 

I see what you did there and I didn't like it

 

Good price on the car, and very rare with Navi. Enjoy it

 

Where did you get the car at? I think I've seen it before.

Area where you took the pictures looks familiar too.
