Nice!!! is that still a powerful car? My parents have a 2000 GLE Maxima, and its got some power

Yeah, it's not bad. It has the same engine as your parents' car (in 2002, they bumped it from 3.0L to 3.5L), with 220 bhp. It's reasonably quick. It's a nice mix of comfort, room, and reasonably good handling, and it's been perfectly reliable. I am kinda finicky about cars, but it really has never given me much to complain about. Honestly the shifter and clutch are not the best I've used by any means, but I so strongly prefer a manual transmission that I don't mind just grinning and bearing it.


ive got a 98 max with the old 3l... pic.
tinted windows. clear corners. red/clear taillights. gold painted calipers. intake. yeah im a ricer.
