Rejoining the 4th Gen Community

It's been just shy of 2 years since I sold my 4th gen, and I've already purchased another, of which is very simple except not so great of condition and this one is 5-speed. Expect to be driving the Max as a daily driver to keep the miles of the Altima, so I don't plan to do a ton of mods to it, but a few, and deffinitly my old evo 5s after I lower it. Enough of all that, here are the pictures. The car is rough, but it was the best I've found in my nearly 5 month search, plus getting them down almost $1500 on the price didn't hurt.

That's not a bad car at all. Your biggest issue, based on what I see, is the rad support. Good find. 4th gens FTW!!

I guess I'm just being critical because the one I sold was in really good shape. But, this one is definitely the nicest I've found around here and I've searched the entire tri-state area and then some for months.

Thats not bad at all, both my bumpers looked like that untill I broke down and painted them. My radiator support looks like that aswell probably half of maxima.org's members rides look like that after 200,000 miles :P

Thanks everybody for the compliments. I am coming around to it a lot more, was a little bummed at first. Guess I was hoping to find one in the condition I found my old one in 2003, but that was a long time ago. I know once I scrub the interior, and compound the exterior she will look a whole lot better.

It came with it but it's not real wood trim. It's essentially a dash kit, that Nissan overcharged for.
