Both have 3.5L engines, Toyota gets 268HP leading to a 0-60 of 7.9 seconds and the Maxima has 290HP and a 0-60 of 5.8 seconds
The second time I chose a Maxima was just because I think it looked good and I don't like the 2013 Avalon, but now I pray, every day, that both cars get totaled... And my fat āss will RUN to the nearest Lexus/Toyota dealershit and say:

Yeah, i hear ya ^ ^ . I was so impressed with the 2010 Highlander's 3.5 liter V6 in manual shift mode. It has less power than Nissan's Maxima of the same year, yet exact same displacement V6. It also weighs more in its SUV/truck frame.
Despite these shortcomings, I much prefer Toyota's drive-train and driving dynamics. Something about their attention to detail, refinement, and utter drive for perfection in excellence .
