Neewbie to the Maxima world!

What up guys, I just got my 06 Maxima last weekend. I traded in my Subaru WRX wagon for the Max. I loved my Subie but I just needed a bigger car. I test drove my friends mom's 04 and I was impressed by the HP coming out of such a big car, so here I am now. Im looking forward to meeting alot of other Maxima owners, is there any SOCAL meets? Well hope to see some of you on the streets, peace!

My old Subie...



The new MAX!

Im thinking of trading in my max for the 07 altima. I live in vancouver and currently paying 750 dollars a month for financing. IF i do a trade in for the altima would i pay lesser?

Lots of factors involved here...First off, you wanna trade an 05 for an 07, Second..cash down money?? Third... fully loaded altima or base model? Not to mention.... you wanna lease or finance?

Didn't know if you were aware or not but you gotta have 15 replies to post a thread.

I don't think Cardomain is allowing hotlinking anymore. Had to change mine as well.

just get off on el toro from the 5, and go east, you'll go past a couple lights, and the fuddruckers will be on your left, you cant miss it, you can see the cars from el toro. and on el toro tuesdays, are cruising days at el toro, and best of all cops cant do anything

Hey there,

Yeah, i would like to finance it. I beleive im leaning towards the 3.5 SE Altima and at this point maybe even navi.

Im not putting any money down, just a straight trade in. So how would nissan go about this exchange, and do you feel that for the new altima with what i said above, i could get it for the same monthly???.

Ummm, the total obligation i have to pay nissan in 4 yrs is 42,000. The car itself i got for 40,000 CAD. That too for a 3.5 SE leather package.

My monthly currently finance at 3.2 percent is 750.

Bonjour et Bienvenue from Montreal, Canada! I visited SOCAL about 5 years ago and loved it! Did LA north to Chatsworth to visit a supplier then down to San Diego then back up through LA Jolla pronounced LAHOYA and then accross to Palm Springs....We also did Holywood, Universal Studios and a restaurant on the coast called DUKES. Very Very nice state!

They are Strada Venti 22x8.5 +40 offset with 245/30/22" Hankook's. If anybody wants a set I can get a good price for you just LMK.
