Sonar Suspension & Interesting?? 3rg gen from Japan

So I was snooping around the vast fields of knowlege (internet) last night and came upon this Maxima article from russia. You have to use altavista to translate from russian to english, but it gives good pics of what the digi gauges and sonar suspension buttons look like...

First go here:
http://babelfish.altavista.com/

Then translate this site from russian to english..... :
http://www.autocentre.ua/article/6273.html


When I thought I saw it all.....I suddenly came upon this monstrosity, straight from JAPAN!!!! http://www.hyd.co.jp/crues/maxima.html

My guess is that this is an 89-91 maxima GXE without even clicking the link.

Other than the itchy interior it looks pretty decent. Much better than half the rice we have up here and plus it's probably quicker.

The Russian site was interesting, mostly because I've got the burgundy interior, and it's cool to see what it looks like in leather as opposed to cloth (seems to lighten up the cabin a bit, or maybe that car is just more exposed to the sun)

The cloth does look better (IMO), it's a much deeper burgundy, my interior is nicely complemented: light headliner to the dark cloth. Figured I'd also throw in some comparison pics:

The Russian One

Mine (underexposed shot, but you get the general idea)

Mine again (getting close to overexposed, but it shows the contrast between the headliner the seats)

Yeah, I've been meaning to do that...I installed my sub while at school so I didn't have as much time as I wanted to do things like that (stupid parking services kept coming by), and I've just been tucking it under the door trim...

they basically complain that the parts are not cheap.
$240 for the fender, $98 for the headlight and $340 for the hood.

The car is very roomy. Motor is very durable.

Sorry my russian is rusty and it would take me a long time to read it.

I was using the S word, not the F word. lol.

Considering I own a 3rd gen Max with this color interior, I think I can talk smack on it if I want to.

But seriously though - the russian cars' interior has almost a coppertone to the pictures - prob. just overexposure on the picture however.
