Thanks to everybody who responded to my other thread. I ended up getting the maxima. Rides a lot stiffer than my dad's 2001 GXE. I guess that since i have a 4th gen like wanted, i need a name change. Anyways, dont mention that i need a drop because im not getting one. When it snows, our street rarely gets cleared and i dont feel like hitting my bumper on the snow. The car is beautiful. While inspecting it closer at home, i found that the muffler is a little rusted, but i dont think it'll be a problem for a while. I'll probably get a 5th gen muffler. The paint seems perfect, but there are little tiny dents all over, even on the roof. Im guessing the previous owner drove it through a pretty bad hail storm.

only 69,000 miles for a 98. am i in the lowest 20%?

feedback apreciated

 

Sweet Max. I've always been a sucker for gray, charcoal or silver Max's. It's pretty hot, take care of her

 

Thanks. The only thing that i dont completely like are the rims.

 

sweet, another 98 sterling mist on black leather here @ .org

as far as mileage goes, i dont think so see my sig/homepage

 

The sawblades aren't the best but they sure beat the stock rims on 95-96 GLE's...no offense to owners of those years but those rims were whack. You should get some Moda's on there. Or maybe some ADR GT's

 

dont get excited about the bose speakers. they suck. i'd suggest you get some better replacements.

 

Wow thats real low miles!
The Bose seem to sound very good, dont know what you mean. They've been in the car since 98 and still work perfectly.
I'll probably get 2 12's and just leave the spakers alone.

 

i love my bose. no complains here at all

 

Good clean start on your "Mafiamobile"


Despite what you're thinking, i say you still plan to drop it. Spend enough time on the org and you will end up doing it...

 

95 GXE 54,000 miles ( i win )

 

nice max..great milage...happy modding

 

Why do people type *pics* in the thread title....yet no pics posted

 

pics in cardomain......

why do people come to threads and post random worthless crap.....

mafiamobile is an inside joke with my friends.

ive been visiting the org everyday for at least 2 years, and registered only last year. I want to drop it, but i probably wont

 

awesome... clean max. good luck man

 

You don't need to worry about a drop and snow, You live in Ohio. You guys don't get that much snow down there. The car looks good though.

 

That steering wheel cover has got to go.

 

Congrats on getting your max! start modding!!!!1

 

I love that blue max in your sig.

 

calm down there dudes 1997 with 33,000 (i win)

 

I have that same steering wheel cover, it makes it easier to drive when the car is cold or hot and it makes the steering wheel feel bigger. Nice car !

 

We get almost always get the same weather patterns that you guys do - they travel across Canada, dip down and hit IL, IN, and OH, and then move on through PA toward New England. Michigan might see more overall snowfall, but we get hit with the same storms.

Maximized2k1 - where did you find your car at? I forgot to look on the AutoTrader link at who had it... private owner or dealer?

98MikeXimaSE - that sig pic has been around for a while... I'm sure your mileage has climbed at least a few thousand.... I'm still jealous, though (comin up on 150k).

 

SolidSnake-it was at the Bob Ross dealership in Centerville. One previous owner, clean carfax.
I live in West Chester if you know where that is.

yeah, the snow here only falls maybe 3 times a year, but when it falls, it really falls. Our whole street rarely gets cleaned. I may just get maxspeeds to reduce the giant gap. I looked at the muffler in daylight today, and it looks like i may need a new one. I'll post pics.

 

why would someone cover up a nice leather steering wheel with that crap?

 

congrats, get some red clears and like nismotic said, you hang around enough, and you will lower your car....i was not going to but now i have to, with stillen kit on i need to lower

 

Agreed. I simply hate the way they feel - especially the areas that are covered in bumps....

 

congrats on the new Max. enjoy the goodness that is the VQ and many other joys

 

looks like a good start, enjoy and congradulations.

 

I have basically the same exact car except mine is black on black. The car looks real good. Good luck with it

 

You got that right, same thing happened to me, I had NO intention on dropping my Max, and got sucked in with all the rest......

 

It looks like its in great condition.

 

Snow is soft. It won't harm your bumper. It doesn't snow very much down there anyway. I say drop it.

Does anyone know if the "GLE" badge was on all 97-99 GLEs? I thought it was just 99s but that's clearly wrong.

 

bose are great speakers and that's really low mileage for that year. 97 at 105

 

yea, i def. like the color. something about silver or w/e on maxs gets my hard on.

 

yeah, your gonna love this car, dont worry about drop, car looks nice!!! low mi!

 

looks like mine when i first got it, i miss that look.
