Background :>
Well I don't
think I can say too much about this car. I bought this car when I first
came to the states back in 1997. I was actually looking for an accord V6
but boy the dealer tried to rip me off so I went straight to the Nissan
dealer. The dealer had no sport edition Maximas at the time (end of the
1997 model year) so my mum decided to get the luxo GLE edition with beautiful
fake plastic wood and beige leather inside. I really didn't appreciate
this car much until I took it on long trips. It was just a really comfortable
car to ride in over long hauls. This car is definitely a great commuter
given the amount of room inside and the awesome BOSE stereo.
The Real Juice:>
Driving this car kinda make me feel old. There is really nothing exciting about driving this car. The car floats on the freeway, tilts like a boat around corners and the car never felt like it had enough stopping power. The engine however was very smooth, always eager to do the deed. 5 ppl and a trunk load of luggage was no problem for this car on the way to Vegas. One thing to gripe about is the brakes....I warped them just a few months after owning the car...I dunno if I was driving too aggressively or does the brakes just suck?
Performance Figures:>
I've never tested this car out but I think this car does 0-60mph in 8 secs and runs the quarter in 16.2? I am not too sure.
