1997 Nissan Maxima I've owned this car for over 5 years as the wife's car. She says it's time for something new. The car has been regularly maintained during that time which includes a timing belt, starter, alternator, numerous batteries, shocks, transmission service, regular oil changes. The car is an automatic and runs great. It has ac, heat, cd, defrost, power windows, power mirrors, cruise, etc. The car has never been wrecked and looks great for its age.
Problems with the car include:
-small oil leak (undiagnosed)--it's not burning it
-the trunk latch came loose which was riveted so put a screw in its place(probably not the best idea cause its not perfect, but it does close)
-thats about it..if I think of any other problems Ill let you know
The wife has driven the car everyday for the past five years and it has over 230k miles on it. During that time it has been the most troublefree car I've ever owned. The only things replaced are mentioned above. The car gets decent gas mileage (low 20s mpg). It has never overheated. In fact, once the engine is warm the needle never moves. I would drive this car across the country without even thinking about it. It still has almost the power it had at just over 100k miles when we bought it. If you're looking for a good driver look no further. I'm only asking 2000 cash obo.

well there you go...one less thing to worry about. Just thought I'd list all the "possible issues" but then again anything could happen to any car at any time so I guess thats kind of pointless
