  Rocket Ship - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By pashey - October 7 - 2:00 am

  I have had two Maximas since 1990, the first one saved my life in an accident. It had 88K miles on it without a major repair. Its sister, nicknamed "the rocket ship" now has 174+k miles on it and I expect it to go to 250k, it still runs great. I love this car, no major repairs (just brakes, tires and the power steering belt). I dont think you could kill that engine if you wanted to.

  One of the bad ones!!! - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By kasey2586 - October 4 - 1:03 pm

  This car supposedly has tons of wonderful reputations. I got stuck with major expensive internal motor work needed. It does have a lot of power and has never left me stranded. These cars can blow the Hondas off the road with the power it has!! It has an engine miss, and the unusual thing about this problem is, it comes and goes! Its had a rough idle, stumbling and bucking. But these symptoms last occurred about 1 month ago and has been a smooth, beautiful ride ever since!! One mechanic told me since it was running on five cylinders, its got bad valves. It also hisses and I know thats in need of an EGR valve. Yes, the check engine light and needs an anti-knock sensor! Not cheap!

  A great car at almost 100k miles - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By js1 - September 29 - 10:06 am

  We bought our Maxima when it was 3 years old. It has been near flawless ever since. Just had to replace a starter at 95k miles. The exterior is holding up very well. Good original paint still shines. The interior is also in excellent condition. No cracking or breaking on any of the plastic pieces. The engine is quite and smooth, even more so than many 4 cylinder engines. The only complaint is a very light steering feel and too much body roll in the corners. The rear suspension should be independent. Nissan tried to compromise comfort and sport.

  Best car owned - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By jconner - September 27 - 10:00 am

  I have never owed a "non-american" car before purchasing the Nissan. I must say the car is clearly made better than the Fords and Cheveys I have driven in the past. Bought it with 184,000 on it crossing my fingers. After putting 30K on it I have only had to change the oil in it. Great car.

  Fast and Fast and did I mention its FAST - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By steveme140 - September 4 - 10:00 am

  Bought with 124k at 2800.00(STEAL), totalled at 50k so I bought rebuilt, but the guy drove it 20 miles a day for 5 years with no problems. This thing is super fast. I had a 91 Lumina V6 and this thing blows it away. Starter went at 125k and it needs a new 02 sensor,tires, but other then that it goes 0-60 in 6. And cruises at 120 smooth.

  the best - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By carguel - July 21 - 10:00 am

  The Nissan Maxima is an awesome car and cant be beat for the price. My car came loaded with all the features you would expect from a luxury car except the price. The BOse sound system is second to none. I even prefer it to the Mark Levinson on the new Lexus. For a reliable car that is fun to drive the Maxima is the perfect choice.

  Sell before 160K - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By achy braky car - June 16 - 2:00 am

  Overall, I have been very happy with my Maxima. In recent times, however, it has been a disapointment. Once it reached 160000 miles, everything seemed programmed to break. In a two month period of time, I have had to replace the calipers, rotors, struts, strut mounts, coil springs, battery, tires, front and rear axles and catalytic converter. The only thing that remains unfixed is the engine and the transmission. Before this time, I was generally fine with replacing worn out struts every 15K miles, but now at 165K the brakes and struts are going again.

  95 Nissan Maxima - 1995 Nissan Maxima
  By abready@erols.com - March 22 - 1:20 pm

  Great car with an interesting story. Previous owner would leave car at subway, and ride subway to work (reason for low miles at 62,000). That is, until 9/11 - he never came back to get it. Anyway, I am now the owner of a beautiful GXE that is in great shape, looks sharp, and is fun to drive! The angel riding with me is a big plus...
