I thought all the Crimson Blaze MAximas were SE-Ls.

Anyone got a pic of one that isn't?

I thought the same thing. My Crimson Blaze is an SE-L (I think Irish's and BlueC's are also SE-L, sorry if I missed anyone else).....but GXE, GLE, SE, or SE-L, it doens't matter.....it's still a max!

They are all SE-Ls. If you ever seen the old school advertisment for it, they have a SE-L crimson blaze red for the altima, maxima, pathfinder, etc. I think its only around 900 that exist. Cool huh?

that's awesome, if i would've known it would've been a different story

the guy who was selling didn't know what he had either i don't think, one beautiful car

but i fell for the black on black, typical

that would have been my second choice, a clean black max can almost stand up to a red max

well, if is not a limited edition it should be. the red max to me is rare. you don't get too many here, and if you do is not taken care of like it should. these are people that don't know the meaning of the red max though..

live on red maxes!!!!!!!

The L stands for limited so of course it's a limited edition. I'd never buy one though.

Theres a crimson blaze maxima about 5 mins from me and I see it every once and awhile. Everytime I see it, its dirty as fukc. Bastards dont take care of it, while my car is always spotless and has a nice deep shine to it.

Uhhh.... white is actually the color that hides scratches and dirt fairly well. White cars hardly ever look dirty unless they've been offroading. Try owning a black car for a month and tell me which is easier.

White hides dirt? Huh? It hides scratches but only if they aren't deep enough to get to the metal.

Friday saw an older fellow in my area with a Crimson Blaze Max for sale. Looked like it was in good condition as I drove by it.

I have seen Crimson Blaze Maxs, Altimas, and Sentras. I think maybe one Pathfinder in red. The Pathy must be really rare in red.

I bought mine a year ago; red was my very last option because don't like red at all; but was the one I saw in good shape; I didn't have any idea they are rare and do not see very often; look nice when clean but now has tons of stone chips on hood because drive 100 miles every day to work on highways; the other problem is that they get lots of unwanted attention, specially from thieves; so will have to keep paying overpriced insurance for many more years. I am getting used to it and now thanks to you guys will start liking it more.

I have a Crimson Blaze SE-L, I guess its rare. Mine has been for sale for awhile no one seems to want "rare" in the Maxima world. They all say 120k miles are way too much it might fall apart- hmm that's not a problem with my Camaro's, Trans Am's and Eagle Talon's I've had. Yea well my bad for thinking this car would be easy to sell when I bought it........anyone got a match?? lol
