SUPER High Mileage Maxima Pics!

I was over at my roommate's friends shop yesterday evening and they had a 3rd gen there with a body kit on it, and the car looked like it had been through hell... It had layers of brake dust on the wheels, looked like it hadn't been washed in 3 years, tons of rock chips on the front and hood... So I had to get inside and see the mileage on this old school VG... And boy was I surprised...



420,633!!!

Turn's out it's driven by some older black guy, and I guess he keeps up with the maintenance on it, because it was in the shop getting fixed... But I guess he doesn't give a crap what the car looks like, judging by the pics...

ummm, I don't think that's brake dust.. looks more like many miles of metal-on-metal to me..

If I still had my tan parts car, I'd donate a tan back seat to him.. looks like he needs a new one!

I hope my 99 makes it to 420k miles. Between affording this wedding and saving for a DP on a house that's about how long I'll need it to last.

he CAN hold you accountable if something happens, can't he? (like he links the incident of his na,e being posted on the 'net to his being a victim of 'net fraud) I would think that if someone he knew told him his pic was floating somewhere on the 'net because someone took a pic of his id *without his consent*, he can come after you...just a thought.

Other than that, it makes me wish I had kept my vg....looks like he has absolutely no time to worry about the looks of the car though....but he DOES look scared as hell. lol.

What net fraud??? We're talking good about his car not talking bad about it... Not only that, but that's his work ID, and I doubt that guy surfs maxima.org... It looks like a car he bought off of some younger person a long time ago, and the previous owner put a body kit on it...

Yeah, thats a no no, you could get in trouble. It would be a huge problem if he was part of the witness protection program. Id take off that pic now if I were you.

There is one 3rd gen owner here who has over 1,000,000 miles clocked between 2 3rd gens (both are over 500,000k IIRC). I believe one was a VG one was a VE. He also has had a few Z32's, a s13, and an AE86 heh. His favorite color car is black

Oh... No, i was just saying when he said "Turn's out it's driven by some older black guy" and he showed the ID card... we didnt need to see the card to confirm what he said.
