1990 Nissan Maxima SE review from North America
"A Fast, stylish car that holds it's value better than an Accord or Camry"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Driver side window regulators went out, got replacements for $10.00 off of the Internet.
The Passenger side lock won't unlock with the others.
I replaced the brake pads when I got the car.
The Automatic antenna burnt out after only about 5,000 miles of use.
General comments?
It is extremely reliable.
The car gets great gas mileage.
It is very fast and looks great.
My Maxima is almost 14 and it hasn't started to wear out and it still is glossy with a plush interior.
But the rims are ugly and make the car look bad, plus there isn't much room to get bigger rims.
