2008 Nissan Maxima Sedan 3.5 SE 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl CVT)
Maxima SE
 I looked at just about every entry level luxury car there was out there.  328xi, lexus 350, infiniti g35, saab 9.3, audi a4, mercedes c300.  All had the same thing in common, did not offer anything more than the Maxima except AWD, most looked nearly identical! All the same features for less money.  I cannot see why people would pay thousands more for a car that is so close to the Maxima.  I am a former Cadillac, Lincoln and BMW owner.  I chose the SE, this is more sporty without the wood accent.  This is an entry luxury car without the price tag.  Without the name plate either but I can say one statement.  I saw all the other cars and could have bought them instead, I love my new Maxima.
