2004/2005 MAXIMA EXTERIOR/INTERIOR COLORS
----------------------------------------------

GENERAL INFORMATION:

SEs have leather seating available with specified option packages.
SLs come only with leather, so have no 'optional' seating surfaces.

RADIANT EMBER was an introductory color, was dropped in July of 2003, and never used on 2005 Maximas.

CHAMPAGNE MIST was dropped in February of 2004, and never used on 2005 Maximas.

CORAL SAND and SMOKE were added in February of 2004, and were used on both 2004 and 2005 Maximas.

No colors were added for the 2005 Maxima model year.

The three characters after each color in the main list below are Nissan's official code designation for that color.

Those wishing to see the exterior and interior colors as represented by Nissan 'swatches' need to go to www.nissanusa.com, then hold cursor over the 'buying' box, which brings up a menu. On that menu, click on 'build and search'. On the menu that comes up, under 'step 1' click on 'Maxima'. Under step 2, click on 3.5 SE. Fill in your zip code and enter. The resulting screen has all the color swatches.

Much of the following color list information was obtained from Nissan publications:

4001A-02/03-500M-CGI published February, 2003
4021A-12/03-225M-CGI published December, 2003
5005A-07/04-500M-CP published July, 2004

These are the standard 'glossy' Maxima booklets every dealer should have on hand.
