Very well put bowke28. I agree 100% with what you say there.
 
I have seen postings about the poor quality of material used in the interior of the Altima. The 3.5SE Altima definitely rides well. If only they can improve the Altima interior they may not even need the Maxima anymore. I am a great enthusiast of the Maxima mainly because of its engine but there is almost no difference between the V6 Altima and the Maxima these days.
 
In all the above comparisons I don't see Mazda6 V6 even being mentioned at all even though everyone claims it is a very spirited car. Is it because of its puny size?

Do you have the sales stats for the 04 Max since its introduction through Nov. 30th? How does it compare with the Altima and G35 during the same period? What about comparing with the 03 Max for the same period last year. Inquiring minds want to know? Thank you in advance.

04 Max Problem by kennyg5

Just got off another website for Maxima fans and was concerned about the complaints launched against the 6th Gen Max. Quite a few 04 Max owners complained about the car's excessive vibtations at speeds above 60 mph. One owner, who professed he was very lucky, was able to return the car to the dealer and suffered only a loss of $1,000. He elaborated that the dealer is a friend who used to play ball with him when they were teenagers and they also see each often in church. I wonder whether this could be one of the first year bugs which the 04 Max has to shed over the next few years.

Did Renault do the design of the 2004 Maxima? by aristotle

After the French auto maker Renault got control of Nissan corporation they sure have turned around Nissan's finances. Nobody can deny that Nissan is in a much better shape financially now than they were 4 years ago.
 
But did Renault have a say in the design of the 2004 Maxima? It is such a pity that a winning car like the Maxima has been reduced to this state in the 2004 model year. Cars being sold in America must be designed by people who understand the tastes and requirements of the people here.

they should take the current altima, leave the front end the way it is, take the rear end of the current maxima, put it on the altima, somehow make it seem wider, put better quality materials in it, and rebadge it Maxima.
 
create and keep a maxima the way it was meant to be, an affordable sports sedan that's very good bang for the buck and keep the hertiage the way it's always been.. lets quit trying to be what we're not.. and we're (nissan) not in the same class as acura's, lexus, infinities, etc. it's like having someone who's been great at his job for the last 20 years, but now, having him do something he's completely incapable of doing.. would you run your business like that? i sure wouldnt

Parking Brake Adjustment by brymil

Can anyone provide instructions on how to adjust the parking brake on a 2002 Maxima? The dealer wants $45 to adjust it and that seems expensive unless of course, it is difficult to do. I can't imagine it is that hard.
 
Thanks!

Ccermak in post 7613 may be on to something regarding a Japanese Buick. The 04 Max grille looks suspiciously similar to a 1958 Buick Roadmaster grille. If a future Max (05,06,..) has portholes on the side fenders, we will surely confirm Nissan/Renault's target audience for the Maxima.
