1997 Nissan Maxima - An excellent all around performer! With good aftermarket support.

Date of Review:  Jan 13, 2004
The Bottom Line: If you are looking for an awesome used sedan for under $10000, this is the car for you.
Review: I purchased my 1997 Nissan Maxima SE when it had 70000 miles. This was about a year and a half ago. As of January 12th 2004, It now has 99900 miles, and I figured what better way to get back into writing Epinions than to write a review on my car...

Wouldn't buy anything else

Date of Review:  Jan 22, 2000
Review: I leased a 1997 Nissan Maxima SE 3 years ago, and it is by far my favorite car that I've owned. It is such a pleasure to drive. I love everything about it from the leather seats, to the electric sunroof. The car also handles very well in all types...

Maxima to the Max

Date of Review:  Jan 13, 2000
Review: My parents own a Nissan Maxima, which is very smooth and has a lot of
power. It's a 1997 Maxima that has about 45,000 miles on it with no
problems. It's very spacious and confortable, and seems to be a safe
vehicle. Driving up hills...

Fast, fun and reliable car

Date of Review:  Dec 2, 2005
The Bottom Line: I have no regrets and still get a kick out of driving this car.
Review: I have a black 5-Speed manual GXE with almost 100k miles on it.

I leased this car for 3-years back in '97 and at the end of the lease I paid cash for it and kept it... I just wasn't ready to part with it yet.

That turned out to...

Review: My wife purchased her 1997 Nissan maxima just under 3 years ago. the car had 65K and was in great condition. White with 16 inch alloys and fabric interior. In three year, we now have 90K on the car and it purrs like a kitten.

Forget about a Accord or Camry!!

Date of Review:  Mar 10, 2002
The Bottom Line: This is just an awesome car. Very comfortable and pleasurable driving! . I recommend a 97 or later Maxima any day over an Accord or Camry!!
Review: The date is March 10, 2002. A few months ago I purchased my Maxima (1997) with 54,500 miles at a dealer for 10,800 at a Nissan dealership. It has been the best purchase I made in my lifetime! If you are looking for a sedan, I highly recommend...

A fun car with a few problems

Date of Review:  Feb 10, 2001
The Bottom Line: It';s a fun car to drive, and a great value relative to Hondas and Accords, but if buying used, be sure to have it checked out by a quality mechanic.
Review: Unfortunately, I?ve experienced a few problems since buying my used, high mileage Nissan Maxima which I will describe below. After much time spent researching prospective cars to buy, I finally settled on the Maxima as the best combination of sporty...
