Hey guys i know alot of you guys are knowlegable about maximas, so please help me..

im currently looking at a 06 maxima (rebuildable title) he said he fixed skirt, hood, headlight..on the right of car..
the cars located in NY.

specs are:
2006 NISSAN MAXIMA SE LOW MILESYear - 2006
Make - Nissan
Model - Maxima se
Color - bue
Mileage - 27K
Condition - MINT! LIKE NEW!
Drives 100%, has been VERY well maintained, Freezing cold AC, FM/AM Radio, CD/DVD Player, CD CHANGER, Navigation System, BLACK Leather Seats, SUNROOF, Power Windows, Power Seats, Power Mirrors, Memory Seats, Tilt Wheel, Powerful V-6 Engine, 3.5L, CLEAN

the guy has the infinity Qx56 rims on them but there scratched up and need painting..

he has a custom grill and spolier for trunk and back windshield.
and the roof is painted gray and he has a pioneer navi system in middle of dash board.

i drove the car it drove okay just needs better shocks since he has 20" rims.


the back bumper is chipped up

the back of the passenger seats leather is ripped.

i believe the shocks are about to die.

and the tires dont have much of a threat life left..
paint has little dots everywhere.



i tried offering him 8500$ he said no but he'll take 9500$..

do you guys think its worth it? please advise

 

sounds decent...almost too good to be true

get a carfax report

and beware Qx56 wheels are 6 lug. maximas are 5 lug. look into that

is it just the pics, or is the roof silver/gray??

 

yeh roof is silver gray...you think i should worry about it being a rebuidable?

 

It's not mint condition, those aren't Qx wheels, tires aren't cheap (nor do they have threats) and it need shocks and paint?

I'd pass... Especially with a salvage title.

Theres more to the story. Salvage titles are a little harder to get than a headlight/fender.

Looks like problems waiting to happen. They're hoping the flashy wheels and stereo will help it sell.

 

The guy advertised mint condition... "like new"

I didn't know Maxima's came new with a chip in the rear bumper and a rip in the leather. I must of got lucky!

I'd skip just because that thing doesn't seem like it was taken care of.

 

Like KC said I would skip that one 06 max with 27K for olny 9500 hundred doesn't sound right to me I wouldn't it

 

Don't do it. You can find better.

 

anyone live in NY and know of any maximas for sale? thx

 

Check Craigslist. Theres a ton of cars on there.

 

'05 SE- $9,800

i did all around $15,000 looking for less...i only need leather...im gonna fix everything else.

 

There you go my friend.

 

to many miles

 

I wouldnt buy it, buying new shocks, fixing the back seat leather, and buying new tires since the ones on the car have very little thread left. It seems too much work & more money being spent, if I were you, I keep looking around and don't waste money & time on that car. Good luck

 

That car has too many ugly scars.... 27K miles for an 06 sound pretty good. But the bad shocks, torn seat, scratched rim, chipped bumper and ugly roof, forget it!!!

Try looking for a Max with under 60K miles and get that tranny checked!

 

That has to be a salvaged title for that cheap. he could sell that car private sale and get more than that with that low miles.

 

id most definetly skip that one! way too many battle wounds id definetly find a better one id go to the nissan dealer nearest you im sure they got a ton of these not too expensive and a lot less sketchy

 

Search local dealers, an 06 with 27k should be around 15-20k, price does not sound right especially if it was taken care of.

 

stay away bro... i was going to travel down the Florida for a rebuild title with about the same price... not a good idea i ended up getting a great deal with a 2005 maxima blue with 30k and cost me $13000 just shop around bro unless you really want a 6thgen and not care about how much it will cost you... also bring an mechanic with you any rust? why is it painted 2 different colors? where was the car hit?

 

what kinda grill is that? looks kinda nice have any more pics of it?

 

Rims are hott.. but are 6 lug... I agree with Kof get you a Carfax pronto and see what the deal is... 9500 is cool 8500 is better though.... If those are the only problems I would go for it....

 

I saw that grille on Ebay about a year ago... there was one in black and one in silver... it's not fully chromed out though.. at least the one I had saw wasnt....

 

Make him lower the price thats the only way id justify a salvage.
The rims are fixable and actually look good with the grille.

But if u can find a better deal then avoid it. IMO

 

"The paint has little dots on it all over?" Are you kidding me??? Do you know how much a quality repaint would cost? Salvage title?? TOTALLY agree with the majority sentiment: DON'T BUY IT!!!

 

27K and needs new shocks? With all you mention wrong, I can see you dumping another $2K in it easily. And a salvage title--I say run from it. You can do better--it may cost more but too many signs turning me off. The fun is in the hunt.

 

Its hard to get insurance on a car that has a salvage title. . even a rebuilt title most insurance companies wont insure you with cars that were classified as totaled or junk. . dont do it . . keep looking. . you'll find a better one. .

 

Here's a few I found: http://newyork.craigslist.org/brk/cto/1100706757.html , http://newyork.craigslist.org/lgi/ctd/1099367150.html , http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/cto/1094676767.html , http://newyork.craigslist.org/lgi/cto/1093832598.html , http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/ctd/1090400790.html , http://newyork.craigslist.org/que/ctd/1093174053.html (this is probably the best one out of the bunch considering price wise). Hope this help you bro.

 

those are fx 35-45 20" rims lolz

 

just back away slowly....dont look back
