Message	: I know the Maxima is a great reliable car. Everyone knows that. And it's not uncommon seeing one with over 160k miles w/o any major problems. : I made a post early today about a 240SX I found. Then I found out its RWD> Yeah that's more fun, but the purpose of this next car is to be a great, reliable, cost efficient daily driver. And for WINTERS!!! So ZSPEED can sleep in the garage. : Anyways... I found and just got off the phone w/ a guy whom is selling his 1990 Maxima w 77.5k on the odometer. V6, sunroof,leather,pw/pl, AT, AC digital speedometer, new drive axel, front brakes exc. cond. $4500 OBO. Sounds way to good to be true? Guy said car is perfect, in excellent condition runs awsome. And is a dark grey. : I know alot of you have experience with this maxima. Can you guys enlight me on them? What to look for and watch out for? : Thanks in advance other than that, the 3rd gen. Maxs are great. It's got basically the same engine as my 87 Max. The ONLY problem I've ever had with the car are the brakes.. (Typical Nissan). The engine is rock solid.
