1989 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America
"Affordable luxury and performance"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong since I've had it, but...
The digital clock works but you have to push it in every once and awhile to see it perfect, but it's visible at all times.
Heater doesn't work, but the A/C does, they cut it off because it was eating up the water.
General comments?
For the amount of time that I have had it, it kicks ass!! It handles great and has some very very comfortable seats up front. I'm 6'5", so the guy behind doesn't get much leg room but he fits.
It comes fully loaded, with the sunroof, power windows, automatic seatbealts, adjustable seat, etc... It also bumps great with my alpine if you're willing to waste a few bucks on a sound system.
Also mine came with some new weather tread Michellen tires and special Nissan rims.
Dashboard looks great, and the white light on the gauges looks great, I just put in a blue backlight.
Bottom line, it looks great, runs great, and it's a fully loaded luxury car, except that it doesn't have leather seats. But, leather seats wouldn't look great in it (Black interior makes it look even better).
Affordable price, I got mine for $4,900.
