I dunno but something seems fishy about the interior... Don't get me wrong very clean and well done, but where does the black steering wheel come in for a Frost interior??

Agreed. It looks like the steering wheel was replaced. Maybe because of the miles the old one was in bad shape? My Maxima with 105K has issues with the steerin wheel, namely the leather is not what I would consider to be in good shape...

If i could sell mine for 5000 i would buy this in a heartbeat. The problem is i just bought it 2 months ago and my parents wouldn't let me sell it.

Yeah but you'd think that you'd want it to match... actually to tell you the truth the steering wheel looks BRAND new, look at the stitching...still "SHOW ME THE CARFAX!!!!!"

My car originally had frost interior. The black steering wheel being practically the only thing black looked kind of out of place. So I changed the seats to black leather, and the door panels to black leather, as well as the console cover, and it actually looks ok with it blended. In the future, I'll probably replace the dash, console, trim, etc. but I can at least attest to the fact that black steering wheel does come on frost interior, and it's not particularly becoming. Lol.

Just had a small conversation with him. He is lowered on Tein 1.5's and he seems like a nice guy. Not sketchy and willing to have a conversation.

Other than it being auto and cloth, it looks like a nice ride.

You ********. The SE model came with a black leather steering wheel.

GLE and GXE came with steering wheels that matched the interior.

The 6MT was only available with the SE model.
The Titanium Edition was an SE model.
The sky is blue.
Water is wet.

Speaking of steering wheels, anybody having issues with the leathers on theres? Mine is coming apart...especially if it gets humid, which happens a lot in NYC, it basically is breaking into little pieces, brown crap all over my hand when I drive.

Any ideas?
