1996 Nissan Maxima GLE review from North America
"The only car for a conservative, sophisticated, not to high class, space oriented man"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
One minor rear tire hum at speeds above 40 MPH.
General comments?
Best car I've driven in my life!!!
Accelerates very well.
Handles the road nicely, and traction diminishes little, if not at all in torrential rain. Great, quiet ride, especially with some Goodyear Regatta 2's on the baby.
Lots of space; Front and rear very comfortable.
Bose stereo is better than my home shelf system.
Easy controls for the stereo, air conditioner, and cruise.
One major disappointment is: the paint scratches way too easily, it feels too soft and it's losing it's original look.
