2002 ford f150 (My first Ford truck.. Totaled in 2008 until then this was my go to guy)

2002 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 2WD (Family Jeep which was decent but SLOW!!!!!!!! Retired in 2015)

2009 Suzuki SX4 Sport Sedan (Traded my 98 camry to get this small car.. Was a nice car for the price and decent fuel economy.. Still reliable for city driving and wife's beater till she upgrades to a SUV)

2015 Toyota Camry SE (Started to like until a drunk driver hit me and totaled my car in June 2016.. My 2nd total loss car.. Was lucky to have purchased gap insurance.. Always a logical choice as you never know what will happen)

AND NOW

2016 Nissan Maxima S (Silver Max Baby!!!!!) Practically same monthly payment as my previous Toyota Camry which is a clear upgrade for the same price Total Monthly payments including insurance was extra 70$ which is not bad for the upgrade it is coming from 2015 Camry 4 cylinder SE

 

Did you consider the SL?

 

My current cars. Wrx is being built. Should be finished in 3-4 months. Also have a 98 cherokee and porsche 73 914gt. Not pictured obviously.

As far as what i had in the past? Lots of cool cars. Lots of lane cars. 2 of my favorite old cars were my 93 turbo civic and my 2002 chevy express van. Civic was super fast and could beat the heck out of it. The chevy express looked like a rolling nightmare. Dented, rusty and ugly. But ran perfect and had a great sound system. Just alot of fun to load up all your friends and go camping in.

 

I looked to have the same features that I used to have on the sv premium. When I looked at the platinum it came with all of them and also new improvements.

1991 Lincoln Town Car
2010 VW Passat

2012 Maxima
Current 2016 Maxima

 

little off topic, but:
My name is Max, my last two cars were 1995 Maxima and 2009 Maxima
The name of my hobby/repair business is "Take it to the Max"
and the name "Maxima" roughly translates from Russian, as a car that belongs to Max.

That said, I am not sure my next car will be Maxima, but will see when the time comes. For now my 09 is only getting broken in with 105k miles on the odometer.

 

2002 Nissan Sentra SE-R (bought used in 2006 and sold in 2014)
2014 Toytota Corolla S Plus (bought brand new in 2014 and sold this past April)
2016 Nissan Maxima

 

I grew up abroad, so my first few cars were quite eclectic:
Early 1990s Fiat Uno
Early 1990s Subaru Legacy
Mid 1990s Suzuki Baleno
2000 Renault Megane

Since I moved to the US:
2007 Toyota Camry SE
(We got 2009 Toyota Rav4 as second car, replaced with 2015 Honda Odyssey)
2016 Maxima SR
