Hey guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I traded in my 5th gen for a 6th gen. I'll update my screen name to reflect my new car. I love it already. The 5th gen forum was very informative and I'm sure this one will be also. Any advice you guys can give for this car will be appreciated. In the meantime, I am going to look through some posts in this forum. Thanks.

 

Great to have a 5th genner upgrade to the 6th gen. Glad to have you with us.

Any pics of the old car and the new one?

 

welcome Ray, what color did you get? Any options?

First mod change is the grille!

 

Yeah always good to get some posts from a new 6th gen owner coming from a 5th

 

Welcome,

Always good to have another 6th gen, and a Texan at that!

Post your pics so we can decide what mods you need and what Dues will want you to paint black

 

, read the "sticky's" maybe that will give you an idea on where to start..

 

Welcome aboard!!

 

Welcome and happy modding!

 

I did the same with my 98 Ray and feel the same way. Congrats!

 

I upgraded from an '02 so I know how you feel. Welcome.

 

hope you enjoy ur NEW ride..drive safe..Congrats!

 

Welcome my friend. Another North Texas 6th Gen. We're cooking with now. Lol. I really wanted to use that smiley. Seriously, welcome. You're in GP, where'd you shop? Duncanville or Arlington?

 

I traded in a silver with black leather 03 for a silver with black leather 04...nothing wrong with the 5th gen, but all i can say about my current Max is

Welcome !

Bob

 

Wow! Thanks for all the replies so far. The color is sorta maroon. I got it at Don Davis Nissan. I got a decent deal since I bought the '01 from the same place. When I figure out how to post pics, I will. Thanks again.

 

I believe your color is called Red Opulence

 

Thanks missjane.

How do I update my screen name?

 

Welcom you are going to love your car, happy modding!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Hey congrats!!! I know your havin a blast!! what color was your '01? I had a '01 also, mine was "Merlot" I just bought a '04 and it looks a little maroonish but it is redder than my merlot one, This one is actually called "oppulence Red" is that what yours is also? anyway enjoy, they sure turn alot of heads!

 

My '01 was majestic blue. I think my color is oppulence red. This one is the best thus far, as I have owned a '87, '88, '98, '01, and now a '05. The power this car has is amazing, although it only has 28 miles on it so I guess I have to baby it until it gets a few more miles on it.

 

You have the same color as me. I owned an '02 Max GLE before I got my '05 SL.

 

Welcome, Congrats, and Enjoy. Seems like you're nice.

 

Welcome!!! I traded in my 99 Max for this one.

 

Nice ride. I love those rims!!!!

 

congrats- red opulance?? damn they look so good in so many color trims...good luck

 

Yep. Red opulence with tan cloth interior. I think my first mod will be a grille and possibly some aftermarket wheels later on. Right now, I just smile every time I hit the accelator. Nissan got it right this time

 

My Opulence Red has the black leather but I wear the same smile ZOOM......

 

just picked up my new 05 last saturday
se with driver's preferred package,sunroof,nav,sat radio.
spirited bronze

 

I hate to be a me-tooer, but I also traded my max in for a new one.

Mine was a little older, though... a 4th gen (1995). The transmission was going (or so the mechanic told me) and I needed a couple new motor mounts, and I decided it would be best to just go ahead and get another vehicle.

What did I look at? Nothing but the Max, baby.

So I snagged an '05 SE with 19K for $25K, + 7yr / 100K miles ext warr ($1100), floor mats and Skyview window (would've preferred sunroof, but not a dealbreaker). Came out to around $26K with my trade ($1500) and taxes and everything.

Couldn't be happier. Well, not without Angelina Jolie in the passenger seat, anyway...

Make your image smaller would ya...I hate having to scroll back and forth

 

Congrats to you!

 

hey guys,

is there a kit available for installing a single din deck or flip up monitor under the cd changer? i want to get rid of my tape player.

any help would be great. also i can't start a new post, something do with admin settings. sorry.

 

Welcome,

Another Texan here and I'm new here too. Just got two 2005 SE's last week. One for me and one for the wife. The mods to mine will have to wait a while since I'm broke from having to buy two of them so the wife wouldn't divorce me for taking her car.

 

two, wow...thats a first on the 6th gen forum as far as i remember

 

04blackmaxx,

Yep, two SE's one last Saturday, wife's and the other one last Tuesday, mine. Wife said she'd divorce me if I didn't leave her car alone (just kidding), so I bought myself one three days later. Both SE's DPP, Sunroof, etc. , mine also has the VDC package. Her's Coral Sand, Cafe Latte leather, mine, Liquid Silver, Frost leather. Guess saying that I'm really impressed with this car would be an understatement. This 6th gen Max is the best bargin luxury/handling car on the market today.

 

First let me start off by saying that this site rocks! I cant explain how
many times this site and your responses have helped me out with some of
the problems my Max and I have encountered. I just recently upgraded
my system (something i vowed when i got the max that i would not do,
but did anyway) and once i get a digital cam, I will post some pics. I
hope some of y'all dont mind but i "borrowed" a couple of ideas. LOL !!!
Pics would be coming soon tho.

 

i replaced an 02 Explorer with my 04 Maxima. i really didnt give the Max too much though before. I had an 03 Acura TL Type-S, then the Explorer (which a tree fell on and totalled) and now the Max. it was kinda strange- one day, searching the internet, i found a few 04 SE's that i liked. a few days went by and i found a 'newly listed 04 SE' (that i ultimately bought) and couldnt stop going back to the cars.com listing, looking at the pics. LOL

i love this car. really do. keeping it clean is the key for it to stand out.
