#8427 of 8972 driving in snow by suydam Oct 26, 2004 (5:55 am)
I also have a 2001 GLE and until recently, a Subaru, and the Maxima went everywhere in snow that the Forester did, with the exception of extremely icy days. If you get a lot of very deep snow the snow tires might be a good idea. I have regular Bridgestone Turanzas on my Max.

#8429 of 8972 Re: Buying an 05 Maxima [duke_wa] by max05 Oct 26, 2004 (8:50 pm)
Replying to: duke_wa (Oct 21, 2004 8:39 am) I just bought an 05 maxima SL, love the wood vs. the SE and prefer the 17 inch wheels...my previous car was a 2000 maxima SE. Biggest difference is the Bose stereo....320 watts, 6 cd changer and 8 speakers vs. 200 watts, single cd and 5. I also have memory seats and power tilt wheel as well as audio controls on wheel...and a heated steering wheel and power folding mirrors and side curtain airbags and night vision mirrors and 43 more horsepower and a manual shift mode as well as automatic, vs my 2000, which i loved by the way....   As far as the 05 interior vs. 04, I think the differences are subtle...i'm told the "titanium" is made from a different material, since the 04 scratched too easily. Also there is now an indicator light (next to the red security light) on the dash to signal when the passenger airbag is disabled or enabled. I was also told the leather seats are softer...I did notice the 04 SE i test drove had "stiff" seats compared to the car i purchased.

Replying to: b10609 (Oct 25, 2004 5:10 pm) Thanks again, b10609, I never realized how sweet these Maximas are. This y2k model is truly a first class 4dr. sedan. I see the posts that complain about the rear axle. Well.....why don't you check out the ride and handling? This car is for real!   I was also checking out the posts concerning Accord vs. Maxima and as far as I'm concerned, the Maxima is far more sporty and has at least as good quality as the Accord. Any other comments about this? Replies to this message: b10609 (Oct 27, 2004 4:30 pm)
#8431 of 8972 Well, actually ... by pat HOST Oct 27, 2004 (4:29 pm)
...responses to that question should be placed in that very same Nissan Maxima vs. Honda Accord, so let's invite folks who want to respond to click on that link and continue there.

Replying to: duke_wa (Oct 27, 2004 3:20 pm) Accords are great cars - many more around. Since all Maximas have had only hot V-6's for years, they've gained a lot of respect in auto buff circles. The switch to US manufacturing has hampered Maxima quality of late, Honda would probably win for now. But, Nissan won't sit still on these issues. I see Altima as more direct competition for Accord, price wise and style. Enjoy that Maxima ! Waterloo
#8433 of 8972 Steering wheel audio controls by otis12 Nov 03, 2004 (6:29 pm)

Replying to: dklanecky (Nov 04, 2004 6:49 am) One would assume that these control would be lighted and tied to the dash light dimmer switch. Replies to this message: obyone (Nov 08, 2004 12:54 am)

Replying to: p100 (Nov 07, 2004 3:11 pm) You know what they say about the word assume
