2003 Maxima SE!!
-Polished Titanium
-TE and ME packages
-27,400 miles
-extended 100K powertrain warranty (thanks for the advice due to *possible* oil issues)
-Black Leather
-Price paid (since everyone wants to know): $17,500 plus $350 for the extended warranty.

I think I probably should've paid a total of $500 less, but it's the car I was looking for and I needed to buy (I'm borrowing a car right now).

Thanks again for all the hundreds of questions answered!! I just wanted to make sure I knew what I wanted - you guys helped BIG TIME

 

Man that's awesome you found one so quickly! Congrats, the polished titanium has always been one of my favorites, and I was looking for one for a while, and finally gave in to just getting my second choice of black. Where'd you pick this one up at? We meet up all the time here in Charlotte, most of the OG Raleigh crew is gone, but you're more than welcome to hangout with us here. SR20DEN one of our master techies here would be happy to help with any installs you may want in the future. Congrats again.

 

Awesome Choice im happy for you. That black leather must look so nice. Iwish i had leather =( LOL And its a 3.5 STRAIGHT LOL But yea post sum pics so we can see. Well hope you enjoy the car have fun with it but don't abuse it and Maintenence is a must take care of it LOL PZ

 

btw 6-speed or auto?

 

Nice snag....manual or auto? Is the warranty you purchased a factory "Nissan" Extended warrenty? If so, how in the world did you manage to get it at that price?!?!

 

6-speed....ofcourse. That's gotta be a sin to buy as an auto.

It's factory Nissan - as in I was told I could go to any Nissan dealership since I bought it in New Jersey (7 hours away!). Hope that's true. Also, they're selling it to me as "certified." He said if they certify it (144 point check or something) then it extends the warranty an extra 3 years (total of 8 years) or an extra 40K (total of 100K) on powertrain. He said for the dealership to certify it costs him $350, which i'm sure is b.s, but I looked at it as $350 for "extended warranty."

 

Here's the ad on the dealer's website:

hopefully this one works - i couldn't get hyperlink to work

 

I'm sure I'll be searching and figuring out what I need to do to take care of it (ie, synthetic vs. normal oil?, etc). Hopefully I won't have any problems. Now I just need to figure out how to get from NC to NJ!! Gotta start calling some friends that owe me favors.

 

Congrats! exact same car my buddy got, except tranny (and reason I considered Maximas)

 

What I need (ie, *want*) to buy:

-Mud flaps (they didn't get them - don't know why)
-Front lip bumper (and painted, obviously)
-floor mats

 

Ha, I bought mine in Jersey also. I just had the car shipped to me. I think it was about 3-4 hundred bucks. Make sure you do a transfer of warranty before 30 days after you purchase the car. 35 bucks to nissan motors and a request to transfer signed by both parties, or else you'll have a hard time using the extended warranty because it's still in the previous owner's name. Good luck getting your max to nc.

 

good choice on the color and the TE, i know you were asking questions about it. man that car is really hard to find, polished titanium with TE and merridain. good find. hope you will enjoy your car.

 

congrats, its like and early xmas gift

 

what up with the pedals? They look AE? I have a TE and didnt get those pedals? Me mad!! Nice find though good luck!!! first thing I suggest is tint and clear those head lights out!!

 

Congrats on the purchase and nice choice of color

 

very nice car man..

 

From what I was told - HLSD (limited slip). If you got this option you also got the drilled metal pedals. Now someone brought up the point you could just add them aftermarket, but if not the case, then you have HLSD.

 

Congrats man...glad everything worked out for you.

Who ended up checking out the car for you?

-Nilesh

 

My uncle actually had a meeting in New York and was driving from Philly yesterday, so it was perfect timing. I was lucky.

 

yoooo congratulations!!! you're my twin!!
I"m glad you gave in and paid the extra $$...it's worth it for a low mileage max. POST PICS when you get it!!!

btw...the metal drilled pedals come with the HLSD...but you can add that on later.

 

Congrats on the new car. Titanium Edition rocks!

 

Acme must have acquired that recently. I dont recall seeing that on the lot when I picked up the plates for my Murano. (If so, I would have taken it out for test drive.) Congrats!!!

 

6 speed or auto dont dont mean **** my friend

 

congrats on the car. i own a 03 also and love it...n im sure u do too.

 

On a highway run 70MPH+ it will..

 

Nice find man, good mileage. You will not be disappointed. Make sure your first mod is clear corners, then you officially one of us!!

 

Only the fronts

 

Awesome Congrats Man!!
Treat her well and you two will have a long and great relationship

 

thats the beauty of tourque converters my friend.......look into it
ill put my friends 03 auto with a tourque converter up against an 03 6 speed
and bet my car on it that my friends auto will pisssssssssssssssssssssssss
on the 6 speed

 

I'll put a on mine and **** on you Put this on that and do that.. ok

 

I'll take that bet. Draw up a contract that we can both sign and lets set this up.

 

what do you have done????

 

You're not from around these parts are ya?



Hell I'll race you with my 'stock' converter and let you have yours.... And I'm auto even...

 

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah ok.

 

dc area

10 char...

 

93 Octane. Lets go.

 

It all started out you talking stating the 6MT doesn't mean **** .... I said after 70mph it is... and this thread is about a Stock 6MT, and you posting in it assumes your responsibility to stay on topic.... and you went by stating if you added a certain mod, you would '****' on a 6MT ...

If you're N/A and 4AT like me.... I would put my retirement on my theory that I will pull away from you.

 

Congrats on the purchase. You will enjoy the car for years to come.

 

driving a 6 speed purely doesnt mean its all about speed, or driving in a straight line for 1/4 mine. its also about the driving enjoyment. i used to drive a stick and now i have auto. i do miss driving a stick mainy because i like to shift when i want it to, not when the car wanted to. i love to down shift before a turn and just go WOT soon as i make that turn, you cant do that with an auto. maybe you could but i cant, you cant down shift, and many other things but im not gonna go into all that. stick is not all about speed or going in a straight line, its also about feeling oneness with your car and in control of your engines rpms. some people like that and some people dont. so when he said its a sin to get an auto, dont get offended. i dont mind driving an auto at all.

 

Then he can match me
