2003 Nissan Maxima Sedan SE 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6M)
Mediocre Maxima
 I like the styling and performance ( acceleration/handling/brakes ) but the interior is sub par.  I have a dash that rattles/squeaks and the seats are cheap.  I dont have the Bose stereo so I installed a sub-woofer which helps immensely.  The Idler pulley bearing went out so the dealership loaned me a Lincoln LS.  For the same money ( $18,000 )  I could have gotten a 2003/2002 Lincoln LS instead of the Maxima SE.  I made a mistake.  The Lincoln is twice the car as my 2003 Maxima SE.  I am now shopping for a nice 2002/2003 Lincoln LS with low miles.  My only concern is that the Nissan is probably a more dependable car than the Lincoln. Im going to take the chance because the LS is WAY nicer
