Nice car!

So far so good. The car is roomy and it drives well and has quick pickup! I like the body style and I feel you get a lot for your money.

2009 Nissan Maxima SV

I love the car but the bigger wheels damper the ride quality. Also the gas mileage could get better if not for a transmission that continually shifts. Over all the car has a great sporty feel for a sedan and the 9 speaker Bose system is the best I've ever owned.

Love this Car!

I bought the 2009 used in 2017 but it runs like a new car. Fully loaded SL model feels like a new car. The pickup is powerful and the suspension is tight. Really drives like a sports car.

Most enjoyable car to drive that I've owned!

Purchased this vehicle used in April 2017 (8 yo car) with only 75,000+ kms on it. Definitely well taken care of and looks and feels almost brand new. Aggressive body styling and interior design. Has given me no problems (so far)! Powerful car with good gas mileage (considering that it has a V6 engine). Will definitely not my last maxima. The only thing that i hope will be improved in the future is the trunk space (but not a deal breaker for me).

Car for my wife

Purchased this vehicle in 2013 it only had 24k miles on it as a birthday gift for my pregnant wife because we had a smaller vehicle. She drives this ca everyday, doesn't want to upgrade and we also use it every time we take a road trip, there are a few recalls still coming out on them, but I would definitely recommend this vehicle,cool design nice basic features no problem with sunroof now at 86k miles, only replaced ac system its about time to replace motor mounts vehicle performs great. If you are considering, go for it. Caution do not try to shine the dashboard it will leave a sticky film forever just use a dry and damp cloth to clean.

Best vehicle I've ever owned

I've always liked Nissan vehicles, specifically, the Nissan Maxima. The styling and performance were the main reasons I purchased the vehicle and I don't regret it for one second.
