"Could Maxima become one of those extraneous pieces of the Nissan Revival Plan that Carlos Ghosn alluded to when he said no cows were sacred? Difficult as it may be to fathom Nissan without Maxima, it looks as if the company is planning to travel that road."

honestly, the thought of that disgusts me. i hope it isnt so.

 

who knows.

 

i hope not...

 

i probably won't buy another maxima, so i don't care

 

nick, you seem pretty bitter in your posts tonight. whats up?

 

maybe bitter isnt a good word. but it seems like somethings not right.

 

well, nick has been through a lot in the past two weeks, but i did notice that. anyway, ghosn better not get rid of the maxima. it's a good car but i can see what they are saying about the 3 series BMW's. I'm selling mine for an M3 because frankly it's a better car for the money. a used M3 or a New maxima will be around the same, but the beamer is faster and handles way better.

 

yeah, you're right. when i found out that i might have a chance to get a 2002 maxima i was all pumped then i realzed i could get a used S4 for around the same price. im still not sure what i want to do.

 

Rigggghhhhhhhtttttt.....The Maxima isn't going anywhere.

 

if it does go anywhere, there always the I35

 

ya that's only avaiable as an auto, unless they get rid of that too.

 

My next car will not be a Maxima.

 

M3?

 

Medicsonic made fun of my jeans yesterday in a post. I will never be the same. ........

 

Well, you were wearing early 90's jeans...

 

540i more likely.

 

I have been thinking about the GS400 a lot lately.

 

im thinkin 5-7 years down the road i'll get a Q...used of course

 

Make sure it's 6-speed.. the autos are okay too though
Good choice, they're beasts and definately more roomier then an M3. Love those interiors

 

what happened to the G35.

 

I heard it will replace current G20 which is way too small for me.

 

but it's gonna be bigger than that. the new altima, which is the g20 twin is now bigger than the maxima, see where this is going.

 

hmmm then maybe our cars will become collectors items and actually go up instead of down in value

 

Man, you guys are lame. A used BMW compared to a new Maxima? When that BMW starts to break down, it will get real expensive and you will definately be missing that new Maxima. Plus consider that insurance for the M3. I love my Maxima. If you want such a perfect performance car, save up and in a few years, buy your supercar new. Maxima rules!

 

when ur max is still haulin, and its like havin a classic. HAHAHAHA. **** ya never know nowadays.

 

The insurance on a new maxima is within a couple hundred a year of a used M3, and when you are gonna be paying almost 3K for insurance that's not much. I'm also going to purchase a full extended warranty, 3years/50K miles for like 1500bucks. Covers everything but brake pads, rotors and shocks basically.

 

My next car will either be the R-35 GTR (if available) or some other sports car, or a GS430, 540, E430 type car. Maybe Infiniti will have its competitor in place by then.

 

I heard it was gonna be Rear Wheel Drive too. Man I would love that.

SuDZ

 

yup. it's gonna be a little different from the altima. but around the same size i THINK.

 

i'm in a dream world. lol
i'm never getting rid of my maxima. when i decide its time for something new, its an X5-4.4i for me, i love them. i'll still have the max.

 

"That means it will either toil away in relative obscurity for a couple of years, or it will be temporarily retired to await resurrection when Nissan again needs a saviour." (Auto.Net)

I like that last line, Maximas are saviours.

 

my next car will be something small when I enter unversity (next yr). Maybe sentra SE-R or somethign similar, parents are probably gonna sell the maxima in a couple years and buy a TL or something thats luxury and fast and it gotta have a comfy ride
