@MJJSmoothCriminal The CVT transmissions is made to have good MPG. Most of them come with a auto-stick (also called a step-tronic) where you can shift the gears manually.
To the author of the video... you shouldn't hold onto the RPMs for that long.. I know the car is new and all... but seriously you're hurtin the tranny if you're manually shifting and letting the RPMs hang for that long.
@occckid123 You're an idiot.. go learn something. Just because majority of vehicles are primarily technologically advanced doesn't mean that actual movable parts don't have wear/tear. Idiot.
@occckid123 If you let the RPMs hang for a long time... yes.. you're wearing the tranny more than anticipated... again, pick up a book and learn something. It doesn't matter if it's a manual, automatic, or cvt, a transmission is a transmission.
@illriginalized so the fuck what. dnt watch the video if u dnt want to watch somebody speeding. omg hurting the tranny!!! drive it easy its so bad. i will let u kno wen my tranny goes since i race my car every single day
@occckid123 you are a complete fuckin moron. Speeding has nothing to do with what Im saying you dumb FUCK. Don't tell intelligent people to go hang themselves... it's you morons that are continuing the dumbing down of the human race. Go read a FUCKING book and stfu already, dick wad.
No doubt.. and there's plenty of aftermarket parts, quality parts, at that for the Maxima. I currently own an I30. Was gonna go for the G35, but knowing me, I'll end up getting speeding tickets consistently.
One thing about the CVT is it keeps the HP up causing a lot of torque steer because it is a front wheel drive car. At least that is the way it is in my 08 Maxima.
The wheels you were inquiring are forgiato vizzo wheels, they are the best of best, i paid 6,150 wheels+tire+ color matching my car let me know, i will be glad to put u in contact with my guy!
I love this car, I have always been a big fan of the Maxima. But when they came out with the CVT engine, made me fall deeper in love with them; I have to get me a maxima.
You can't get full acceleration w/ A/C compressor on - though I don't know if Nissan uses auto cut off when full throttle is used - turn off A/C for full standing still accels.
I love the 04 and higher maximas although I think Nissan kind of messed up putting a CVT tranny in. Sure it is smooth and all but I do like the sounds of shifting. For me to enjoy this I would have to take the 6 spd. tranny. Nonetheless, congrats on your car I just love the looks.
nice demo video bro...i felt the same when i bought the same one, '08 max. se. "its alright" for some reason i kinda like the 09 altima style, the max seems a little geometric, but cant complain about the acceleration, its quick. interior may need some tweeking ex. '09 max. overall, its definitely been a koochie magnet!!!
Yeah..Im a GM guy...but I was looking to trade my Camaro in for something..and drove all kinds of cars..and the 03 Maxima was the best one! I then moved up to 05's, 06's, and then the 08. I bought a black on black leather 08 SE..every option avail!! I must say that Nissan is in my opinion the best car maker period. They and most other foreign car makers put our cheaply made american cars to shame! We cant compare to them! Especially FORD and PONTIAC..they have to be about the 2 gayest ones! :)
I like the feeling of the acceleration with the cvt kind of reminds me of taking off in a jet; smooth continuous power. In a video it seems like the revs top out and it sounds like your speed is topping out, but make no mistake even though the revs have topped out you are still accerating in these cars, feels like a rush of smooth power. I had a 2006 Chevy Impala SS it was very fast but I think the Maxima suspension is more accurate and more fun to drive.
I have a new Maxima 2008 only 900 on the odo and the fuel mileage has already improved, The fit and finish isn't as good as my old 2003 Maxima. Other wise a great car smoother and more luxurious than the 03.
yes i can change them with the steptronic shift in the video there is a clip where i was actually changing them. but i did it so fast u can barely tell
I love my 04 non cvt maxima sl
