1990 Nissan Maxima SE review from Japan
"A fast, comfortable, sexy car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Bose cassette player works sometimes but that is no longer an issue because I took it out and put in an in-dash CD receiver, the digital clock doesn't work, and the cruise control doesn't work but I never use that damn thing anyway (who does?).
General comments?
This is a great car to own if you are in the market for a used car. I bought mine for $5,700 and even though it is 10 years old and had over 112K miles on it when I bought it, it runs great and is a great car to race with. This car beat a 1994 Camaro and a 2000 Prelude in a drag-race. So, in short, the car is a luxury sedan with balls.
The bose sound system bumps loud and has great sound quality. On another note there will never be complaining that there is no room in this car. All passengers have tremendous room in the front and back seats. The trunk room is huge too. One time I managed to fit 4 of my friends in the trunk all at once, then I closed it (ha ha).
