You're selling your near mint, low-mileage 3rd gen to go to a 2nd gen?

(although that actually looks to be a really clean 2nd gen!)

My first max was a 2 Gen. I think $1k is fair if good tires and all. If tires bad or any other mechanical issues then start deducting. Bad tires alone I automatically take off an additional $200+. So, if clean and drives out good, I say $700-1K. You'll never get it for less unless you can spot something major. To me, $500 is barely above scrap/junk yard/parts car pricing.

Big E Dog has a TT 2nd gen.

3rd gens actually weigh less than 2nd gens. IMO Maximas got crappy after 3rd gens, i would rock a 4th gen maybe but 5th-7th gens are just

If you get it, there is someone in Seattle (Ronin/86MaximaSE) that knows a LOT about them. He can be a big help. His 2nd gen had a lot of mods.
