I'm currently looking at the 1998 - 2002 Model as I like the looks and seems to be generally a well recommended car. Should I be concerned about mileage for these models?
 
Stay away from the 2000 model - it was a first year, and as such has a bunch of problems. The '98 and '99 are nice, but pretty different than the '00-'03. They're smaller cars.
 
The '02 and '03 are the ones to get. They have the 3.5L V6 as opposed to the 3.0L, and are very fast. The '03 was an "orphan" year (only 8 months' worth were made) because the '04 came out in 03/03.

Hmm, in a similar boat, it's looking like I can luck into a 2001 GLE with low miles for around 10K. Any advantage to paying more for a 2002? any problems with 2001 models?

The '02 is quite a bit faster, but an '01 is a fine vehicle as well. If you get a chance to drive it, check the driver's door jamb and make sure it was made in late '00 or '01.

I doubt if you can go wrong with a 2002-2003
 Maxima. I'm driving a 2002 Maxima SE going on
 four years now, with approx. 59,000 miles on
 it. All I've done in the four years was
 change the oil every 3,000, replaced the tires
 at 48,000, plus front brakes. That's it so
 far. (Knock on Wood!) The car has serious
 pick-up, very roomy, love the xenon lights,
 which does not appear to be a theft problem
 in the Tampa Bay area. I've noticed there
 also seems to be quite a few low mileage
 2002's for sale, so if the car checks out fine
 you should be able to get a good deal on one.
 Heck, some of these used ones even have lower
 miles than I have on mine. I average 15,000
 a year. So good luck!

2006 Nissen Maxima SE/SL by smiley10

Looking to buy fully loaded 06 maxima. Wondering how to tell if your getting good deal. Looking at car around $34K MSRP and want to offer $29K (doesn't include 1500 rebate.) Should you try to get close to invoice price? I heard people were paying in New England around $27K for fully loaded maxima.
 
Appreciate any suggestions.
 
thanks

Hi, I was looking at the same car for my brother. Carsdirect.com price was $28,993 for a fully loaded 06 SE, which includes the $2000 rebate The price is guaranteed I suggest you try carsdirect. The only problem is the 06 inventory. They couldn't find any car with the options that I want in the state of WA ! So right now we're looking at the 07 model. Good luck with finding an 06 ! I think you could get a really good deal !
