FS: 1999 Maxima SE (5-Spd) Clean

I am the second owner of this maxima, bought it for $14,500 from a guy in Pasadena, CA. in October of 2002 with 45,000 miles on it. Now has 103,950 miles on it. Thank god, never ever been hit or been in any compromising situations unlike my first maxima which was totaled by a reckless driving 90 year old woman. This car is clean, no accidents, clean title, only had 2 problems with this car: had difficulty passing smog 2 years ago due to catalytic converter gone bad, replaced it with new one and the clutch reservoir seems to have a slow leak in it. I have to check/fill it up every 6-8 weeks. I have a brand new stainless steel clutch line to fix it but have not got around to putting it on.

Only 2 modifications: K&N drop in Air filter and Warpspeed SS Y-Pipe. Car is basically still stock. I bought a toyota pick up truck for work and don't need the maxima anymore. I had to pay $1400 in insurance for the year recently and would just like to sell it and get that money back. I can't afford to have two vehicles right now nor do I need two. Located in Rancho Cucamonga, California.

The cosmetic scars on this car are light and are as followed:

-Driver side back passenger door has a bit of a rub from my dad pulling out his truck parallel to me and rubbing against the back door. It didn't cause a dent or any paint coming off but a bit of a rubbing scratch which is noticeable in light. (also this same door has a couple small minor dents it looks like from getting tapped from other car doors in parking lots)

-Passenger side front door has a minor scrape (shopping kart or some a-hole with a key?) it is not thick and measures in length maybe 10 inches. Not too noticeable, looks like someone dragged a key lightly across, right under the window. Seriously hard to see unless really looking for it.

-Passenger side review mirror has a small chip out of it from me backing out of my front yard in the morning time and clipping the recyclable bin with the mirror. Nothing wrong with the mirror electronics or the mirror itself. Just a small chip out of the holder. I was very tired that morning and didn't even notice the chip until earlier last year.

-Passenger side windows have baked water spots in them, mostly back one. Probably very easy to get out but I don't have the time to find out or do it.

Other than these blemishes, the cars paint still looks great and has been waxed a couple of times a year since ive owned it.

Like a fool for so long, I took it to the dealership for all its major services until 2006 when I realized I was being price gouged. In that time I was taking it there, I had a full 60k tune-up done, new brakes end of Nov. 2005, a few transmission and radiator flushes, new clutch slave and master cylinders, resurfaced flywheel. The only modifications I've made to this car was a K&N Air life time filter(cleaned recently), and a stainless steel warpspeed y-pipe (installed January 2007) and brand new OBDII Calif. certified (installed february 2008). The car passed smog on February 2/23/2008.

I bought a toyota pick up last year for work and misc., I don't drive the Maxima anymore. If you have an offer or are interested in the maxima (preferably local), email me. I honestly have no use for it anymore, I would like to pay my truck off and drop the insurance. If I were to keep this car I would pay to have new struts and whatever else goes aside keeping the suspension and alignment up to par. Clutch is still in great shape as everything else. Two brand new front tires 'RIKEN_Raptors' put on 2/25/08. I am asking $4,999 OBO. Need to sell, thanks for looking.
