before a few certain people come in here and blast everyone for ridiculing this car for being different and that you all don't know what it takes to do something like that, i'll be one to give props to this guy. sure its a yellow maxima. and yes it has high miles. and why the hell does he have stock rims still? but Vyrus is right, with some rims, this car would be very nice. some of the prices he quoted are a little inflated, but over all, he did drop alot of money into that ride. i'd buy the car if it was anywhere near where i lived.

on a side note, anybody curious as to why he didn't post a pic of his engine bay?

Those skyline lights look so good , almost as if the car came with them. I didn't think the color yellow would look good on a max but it does.

Sorry that car just screams :attention

It is a little to pretentious for my liking, why that color? He should have painted it black, blue, or silver if he was wanting to appeal to anyone besides those 18 and under. That said this car will be very hard to sell and you can tell from the number of bids. A maxima is not going to capture the usual market of those who are into yellow paint a big body kits, if I were him I would stripped everything off the car (not ever painted it that color) and tried to sell it to someone who is actually looking to buy a maxima (30 years and up) and then sell all the aftermarket parts seperate. I am pretty sure this car was in an accident (right side) due to the difference between the amount of fog on the headlights, and the fitment of the hood (gap above the right side light.)

Also, I would probably want turn signals on my car.

Sorry but rice is a four letter word to me, and this guy could have bought an incredible turbo kit (turbo97) just for what he paid on the interior. The value of the car was said to be about 7,600 + the mods, that said this would cost about 22,000 to have a car with 186,000 that is just as fast as any other maxima on the road, but gets laughed at on a regular basis.

If your going to spend that kind of money at least change the original aspects of the car, acceleration, handling, and braking, and please keep it clean

Ya know I thought about that and only one thing came to mind - he must not have painted over the engine bay and didn't want to say/show it.

that's what i'm thinking. his door jams are painted, so i figure he'd take the time to paint the engine bay, but maybe he ran out of money?

Hmmm... No large spoiler and no huge exhaust.
He also lists Platinum spark plugs and a new windshield. Why not just list new tires, and brake pads in the price of the car too?
