Hi. My girlfriend just bought a 1989 max in great shape. I drove it a few times and it is a really solid car. I was impressed. My question is.......what model is it..SE, GXE...how do I find out. There are now badges or decals on the car. Is there a door code or anything? I am thinking it is the GXE model, because it has the bose stereo and every option that I could imagine. Can anyone help out. I also have a stereo Q that i will post later. Thanks.

check the 3rd gen faq post at the top of the page. In there you will find a linke to Craig B's site. Go there for comparison. Also check some of the other links because they may have comparrisons too...I think Brians may but not sure.

 

Thanks alot guys...she has the SE.

 

nice

 

I have a 89 GXE but with a rear spoiler and it's not the spoiler with the rectangle brake light on it, it's has a thin red light that is almost the length of spoiler.

 

you have an aftermarket spoiler...not factory

 

Makes sense. I bought the car last year and always wondered why I never saw any Maximas with spoilers like mine. I thought the spoiler was stock.

 

TAKE IT FROM AN EXPERT, "moi"...

SE has got a maximum speed of 145 mph
while GXE is only 125 mph

 

Only 92-94 SE's go to 145 mph, "expert"

 

just because it has that on the speedometer doesnt mean thats the top speed. Besides the 89-91 SE has the same speedometer (not color but same scale) as the GXE not to mention the same motor.

 

hehe, the expert is funny.
