What color is your maxima!

I'm out to prove that 50% of the people on Maxima.org drive white Maximas. Vote away!

Even if 50% are white black is still best.

Wasn't crazy about beige when I got it, but it was what was readily available. Since then I've come to appreciate the way it hides the road grime. Looks "blonde" with clear corners. Now I just need one to go inside the car

kinda true...we have 3 black cars out of our 4 (max is black )...only non-black we have is a white pathfinder, and the only reason we got white was because we already have a black pathfinder too...black cars kick @$$!!!...kinda hard to keep clean, but when they are clean, beautiful!

I see a huge amount of maximas driving here in NY but I think the color I've seen most would be the Dark Green (deep evergreen or whatever it's called). Not to say that I don't see other color maximas, but that just seems to be the most common color and that's the one I have too.

yeah, except my old black '97 altima. 1 waxing wrecked the paint on the hood and you could scrape the paint off with your fingernail anywhere else. I thought for sure I'd have to pay for all the paint damage when I turned it in, but I didn't. My beige Max, however, seems to be holding up great.

Crimson Blaze baby!! That's red to those new to the Max. I don't usually like red cars but this one cought my eye. I was really looking for a black 5 speed and ended up with a red auto. What can I say, it spoke to me!

Dodge Viper Blue like in the Fast and the Furious!

White/Black/Crimson Blaze are the best stock colors, but white takes the cake because it is easiet to keep clean!

If it's a 97-99 its called Rosewood. If its a 5th gen, I think they called it Merlot.

Iris! when i saw the ad for it, i asked what color Iris resembles the most, and each person gave a different answer. had to go and see it for myself. i dig the color - it changes shade a bit depending on the viewing angle and the sun in the sky. no joke.

Sometimes it looks Gray, sometimes beige-ish, in the right light. Not sure what it's called. Mostly it's just dirty.

I sorta got stuck with mine...

My dealer had 2 '99s left back in August '99: a champagne auto GLE, and a green 5-speed SE-L. I woulda preferred black or silver, but green was what I got.
