2001 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America
"If you like to drive a fun, roomy, and stylish car, you will love the Nissan Maxima"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
General maintenance is all I have had to do thus far.
General comments?
All the good things you have heard about this car are true.
This is one of the best cars ever made. Reliable, quick, comfortable, and affordable.
The BOSE sound system is exceptional. Engine/tire noise are almost unnoticeable.
I am 6'3" and I have no trouble fitting inside the car (front or back seats). Leg room is aplenty! Trunk space is above average.
Don't buy an Accord or Camry without giving the Maxima a chance. You will also appreciate Nissan service.
