Had a few Gen 7 Maxima's years ago and always loved the look. in 2017 I got rid of my last one when my former employee gave me a free company car. The car was a brand new 4 cylinder Malibu LT with Leather and it was a nice ride but over the years I would always see a Gen 7 maxima and wish I still had one. Fast forward to 2022, took a new job so I had to hand in my Malibu and get a new vehicle. It was then I started my search for used 2012-2014 Maxima's. I test drove about 4 Nissans each with 80 to 110K miles. In pictures they looked great but when I drove them something was little off on each one.
Frustrated I was about to give up and just get another Malibu but then it happened! I found a 2014 with 9,000 miles! I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it! I thought the mileage must be off so I called the small family owned dealership to confirm. They said it was accurate and at that point I told them I was on my way!. After a 2 hours drive I arrived at the dealership and couldn't believe what I was looking at. The car in and out was showroom quality. Engine, floor mats, looked like it was un touched. Even the leather seats looked liked they just rolled out of the factory. The dealership told me the owner passed away and it went to charity auction. Someone almost bought the car the day before but they couldn't put enough money down. In the end I paid a pretty price for an 8 year old car but it is brand new. Super excited and as a gen 7 maxima fan I could not be happier. Only item missing is a spoiler but I may get that put on at a later time. Below is a picture of the car and thanks for reading my post. Definitely feel like I hit the jackpot!
Thank you! I also had a 2007 maxima SE in Blue with black interior. Such a sharp car.
I almost bought a 1 owner Blue 2012 SV with tan leather and premium package but it had 100K miles, was from a shady dealership in NJ and the steering was off but it was a beauty. love that rear window shade
