Any Old Magazine Scans of Maxima Reviews?

Are there any old scans of Motor Trend, Road & Track, Car and Driver, etc articles featuring the 4th generation Maxima? I've been looking for some with no luck.

You've been driving the car long enough to make your own biased review.

I have both the R&T and C&D articles (from 6/94), but it will take a while to scan em in and post them here. If anyone seriously would like to see them, I'll take the time and do it. Each road test is 4 or 5 pages long. Funny thing is, I just noticed the Road and Track review is for the exact car I ended up buying in 94 - the Ruby Pearl (red) SE. I still have the original window sticker too.

I also have 2 copies (in perfect condition) of the original dealer brochure for the 95 Max. But, counting the cover, the brochure is about 35 pages, and the pages are over 9" X 12" - really too big for my scanner.

Someone posted the motor trend article a while back, but I don't know where the link went. Either way I right clicked and saved the photos the guy posted so I'll just repost those.

Seems like 1995 was the best year huh.
Wow, Motorweek says 'Best v6 in the world'.

Thanks, dark, for the Motor Trend review. That was one I never saw.

I also have the Road and Track review from 6/94. Since people seem to like seeing the old reviews, I'll take some time later today and scan the full R&T one in too.

That way we'll have the 3 major car mag reviews for the 95 Max all in the same thread.

I have a ton of old magazine articles and what not thanks to another member on here who was so gracious as to give them to me. Maybe I'll scan them all in this weekend when I have some time.
