General Comments:
I bought a 2002 Nissan Maxima QX, black with grey leather. I just turned 30 and wanted a car I could keep until my late 30's. I wanted something fast, yet practical and reliable. I test drove a BMW 325 and didn't like the Civic feel of that car, even though it had more luxury and rear wheel drive. Plus I felt like I was paying $10k just for the BMW name.

The Maxima engine is amazing. It's so quiet at idle you barely know it's running. At higher RPM's it is solid. It's also a very practical sedan. The xeon headlights are a nice touch.

The worst thing about this car is that it has all that power, yet it's front wheel drive. This causes a lot of torque steering when accelerating through turns.

I did my homework, and for the money, this is one of the best cars being offered of any class.
