Very nice.
Looks like the 3rd Gen had the longest ran. I wonder why???






















Here we go

 

Because 3rd gens are so crappy, they had to keep messing with them to get them right, they finally got them right in 95

 

hey, back off, man. 3rd gens are classic. the SEs are dope.

 

they might be classics, if you use the term losely ... fact is no maxima will ever be a classic...

 

times are a-changin though

 

ibtl, got a feeling this gonna turn into another "my generation maxima is better than yours" kind of thread.

 

its not we are upgrading an operating system

SINGLE?
Nissan Maxima XP
MARRIED?
Nissan Maxima Home
MARRIED W/ KIDS?
Nissan Maxima Server

 

Anyway I think they should say

97-99 = Maxima 98

 

its not as if we are upgrading an operating system

SINGLE?
Nissan Maxima XP PRO
MARRIED?
Nissan Maxima XP Home
MARRIED W/ KIDS?
Nissan Maxima XP Server

I think that would make the 350z ... ? OS/X ?
or novell ?

 

horray for 3.3-3.5

 

1995-1996 - Maxima 95a (buggy and lots of damage after crashing)
1997-1999 - Maxima 95b (less buggy and less damage after crashing )

2002-2003 - Maxima 2000 Professional SP3

2002+ Altima - Altima XP Home

Too bad they quit making Maxima's. I really liked them!

I'm not too familiar with the year to year changes on 3rd Gen's, but....

1989 - Maxima 3.0 (first year model thing... )
1990-1994 GXE, 1990-1991 SE - Maxima 3.1
1992-1994 SE - Maxima 3.11 for Enthusiastgroups

Maxima ME

 

wow I got really confused then I said, "Maxima names for computer geeks!" Oh duh... What would the Bluebird be called?

 

max 3.1 dos.

 

You guys are all nuts. This naming scheme doesn't work because most people don't crash their maxima's every day.

 

at least this thread is unique. very geek, too. i kind of like it. and i kind of think it is gay. but it is entertaining. it is a break from more serious technical threads about wiring harnesses, fuel pumps and duty cycles.
