Just bought a 2017 Nissan Maxima

[Cyber370]

Hey guys,

Just pulled the trigger on a brand new '17 Nissan Maxima SV. This will be my daily driver. I was hooked once I drove it. I did not think I would like it due to the CVT but I was amazed at how well it drove. The CVT is much improved. The handling, acceleration and engine noises are all superb. The full leather interior is stunning. It's one solid vehicle package.

I had been looking for a replacement for my '10 Mustang V6 DD for a while. I could not decide on anything. I did not want another Mustang or pony car for that matter because I wanted something different. I had looked at SUV's but they all looked the same and were basically boring unless I went very high-end. I hadn't considered the Maxima until I got one as a rental during a recent business trip. I knew right then and there, I wanted one. I was pleasantly surprised at the price.

The buying experience was mostly excellent. The salesman was knowledgeable and very professional. I got a multitude of rebates totalling $4000.00 and I also got an excellent trade-in value for the Mustang.

However, I did not like my experience with the finance guy pressuring me to buy the useless add-ons such as the extended warranty, rust/paint protection, glass etching, etc. My brother is a sales director at Acura and I know how this bullsh*t works. It's how the dealer makes the most money on a sale. I told the guy that he was wasting his time but he would just not let go. Damn, I hate car dealers.

Oh well, can't wait to take delivery. I will post up some pics once I do. The Maxima will look good in my driveway next to my 370Z Nismo. Living the Nissan dream! Well almost. The GTR is all that's missing.....LOL.
