Overall Love It !!

Date of Review:  Feb 5, 2002
The Bottom Line: Will not find comparable car for similar price.
Review: After reading many reviews, and test driving a couple of times, I was hooked. Now that I have the 2002 SE with 6-speed manual, I am extremely impressed with this car. This car is so smooth at high speeds, I am somewhat apprehensive about future...

Nissan Maxima: Big Bang For the Buck.

Date of Review:  Feb 18, 2002
The Bottom Line: The best value for someone looking for practicality, comfort, and a touch of sportiness, wrapped up in a stylish vehicle that rivals the near-luxury class.
Review: After deciding my C-5 Corvette was just getting too expensive to keep as a daily driver, I decided that a more practical car was what I really needed. None of the current offerings of American iron seemed to fit the void left by the sportiness of...

Ninety percent great, ten percent awful

Date of Review:  Feb 17, 2002
The Bottom Line: A car of remarkable extremes: Awesome power and handling; awful driver's seat and seating position. This will be a great car when Nissan releases the adult version.
Review: The new Maxima SE brings to mind the poem about the girl with the curl in the middle of her forehead - when she was good she was very, very good, but when she was bad she was horrid. The very, very good: the engine, transmission and handling are...

My AWESOME 2002 Maxima GLE

Date of Review:  Mar 6, 2002
The Bottom Line: Buy it... negotiate and you can get a great deal.
Review: I purchased my GLE Jan 15th, and I now have over 3000 miles on it. I Financed it thru NMAC @ 3.9%.. the finance rate was so good I couldnt pass it up!

After negotiating with 3 dealers and getting quotes ranging from 3-10% over invoice, I...

Best in class!!!

Date of Review:  Jun 24, 2002
The Bottom Line: With a lot of competition in the mid-size family sedan market, it's nice to know you can get a reliable, sporty car without dishing out BMW, Lexus, Acura money.
Review: Had no idea I would purchase a Maxima, I was looking at Passat's, Camry's and Honda's. Passat was fun to drive, roomy and I love the styling, but reliability is still a concern with VW. Camry and Honda, although very reliable were down right...

Almost the Perfect Car

Date of Review:  May 17, 2002
The Bottom Line: Buy any more-expensive sedan other than a BMW M5 instead of this car and you are wasting your money. Its quality and performance are unmatched at this price.
Review: I purchased a brand new '02 GLE at the end of October 2001. After driving the car for six months now, I am very pleased with my choice and would recommend the car to anyone. Here are a few things I have noticed that are worth discussing:

How to build a Sports Sedan 101, Maybe?

Date of Review:  Oct 9, 2002
The Bottom Line: Looking at Sports Sedans in the $35,000 to $40,000 range take out the Maxima, you'll be pleasantly surprised. Go on vacation with the extra $$.
Review: 40,000 mile update:
Having driven this car for 40,000 miles, my opinion has changed quite a bit. I have had 3 recalls, a continuous vibration that my dealer refuses to acknowledge and now what seems to be CV problems. Of course this happens...

Don't buy this car!!!!

Date of Review:  Oct 16, 2006
The Bottom Line: Just don't buy it.
Review: There are so many good reviews about this car that I bought it and now regret it. I want to sell it b/c of all the little things. I had a 91' Max and it was great. Stay away from the o2'

All the cons are:

1.Brake and gas pedal...

I stole it!

Date of Review:  Dec 6, 2002
The Bottom Line: I was looking at buying a used BMW or Lexus. What a mistake that would have been.
Review: Just got my 2002 SE leftover (had 7 miles on it). It was just sitting there in the showroom begging me to take it out for a spin. 90% of consumers want an automatic tranny, not me...I saw this six speed and the gears went into motion. That was the...

A car where the Accelerator lives up to its name.

Date of Review:  Apr 30, 2003
The Bottom Line: A fast 4-door daily driver that can embarass other so called sport sedans. A car you buy when the engine is your top priority.
Review: I bought my 2002 Maxima SE 6-speed in late August of 2002. Why I bought it? I wanted a car that can keep up with traffic, and give cocky boy racers a thrashing at will. How I wound up with the Maxima? a test drive of course! But it wasn't an easy...
