2012 Nissan Maxima Sedan 3.5 SV 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl CVT)
Impressive Maxima
 My 2010 Maxima lease was almost up so I turned it in and leased a 2012 Maxima SV with Premium package.I immediately noticed a huge advance in refinement over the 2010, and a dramatic improvement in the performance of the CVT. The drivetrain as a whole is far more responsive and much smoother. The CVT no longer bogs down the tremendously powerful engine. Kudos to Nissan for continuous improvement. The two-tone interior is sumptuous and the materials appear to be of improved quality. Everything has a very substantial quality about it. This feels like a much more expensive car.On the road, the dynamics have been improved, and a feeling of solid build and substance is imparted.I love it!
