2001 Nissan Maxima GXE review from North America
"Quiet, powerful cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing to date.
General comments?
I picked the car up used and had the windows tinted and a full leather (not just trimmed) interior installed. Turned the base model into a sport/luxury cruiser (I wish I would've got the manual transmission).
Great power, smooth deliver, competent handling, high quality fit and finish. Nice growl from the exhaust.
It's great to own a sedan that is 100% reliable and isn't a Toyota Camry or Honda Accord (not bad cars, but a little too common for my liking). Fuel mileage could be better, but as long as I keep a light touch on the throttle it is acceptable.
