This car is very clean (non smoker), looks and runs great. With 255 hp, it has all the zip you'll need. Transmission shifts very smooth too. Interior is immaculate. Oil was changed every 3000 miles, religiously. New brakes at 64K and new tires (17") at 66K and 69 K...smooth ride. New battery in 12/07. Plus a new oxygen sensor last inspection in 9/07. Comes with a remote start for those cold mornings. I have had this car for three years (36K when purchased) and have not had any problems with it at all. I just purchased another Maxima...they are excellent and reliable vehicles. I would say these cars get between 20/25 MPG, depending on how you drive. I have only ever used 87 octane, throwing a tank of higher octane in every now and then. This car has never seen snow. I have a 4 x 4 pick-up for that. I have recorded everything I have done to the car in the owners manual since I have had it. Very well maintained...a must see. Must pick up...no shipping on this item.
