F/S '98 Maxima SE 5spd PHILADELPHIA, PA

I have a 1998 Nissan Maxima SE that is available for sale. The car now has 170k miles on it. It is a manual transmission 5spd with a BOSE stereo, spoiler, moon roof, and power driver's seat.
The car needs a headlight, side view mirror, right fender, valve cover gasket, and maybe a hood. I own the parts for the valve cover gasket (which I’ll give to you when you buy the car), professional labor is $300. I found the other parts on car-parts.com
You can find the parts:
$100 for the headlight.
$50 for the sideview mirror. (I found it in silver around Philly)
$50 for the fender. (I found it in silver around Philly)

I was in a fender bender in stop and go traffic.

I have done some modifications to enhance the appearance and drivability of the car. If you don't like the sounds the car makes, I have the stock exhaust and stock air box which you can put back on and the car will still be very quick and very quiet. At the same time you will have a safer, better handling, and better stopping car than other Maximas on the road.

**All the orange in the lights both in the front and back of the car have been changed to be clear. This gives the car a newer look similar to the new cars that you see on the road today.

**I have put 17 inch alloy wheels on the car which not only enhance the appearance but have a reduced weight of 15lbs/wheel which causes less strain on the drive train enabling more power to get to the ground.

**I have installed an under drive pulley that adds about 8hp and helps 1st gear wind out quicker. This is another modification to help power get to the ground more efficiently.

**The car has a Jim Wolf Technologies Warm Air Intake with Place Racing Mid-pipe that adds about 10hp and gives the engine a nice grunt.

**I have installed a Warpspeed mandrel bent Y pipe that is the biggest power adder on the car, good for about 20hp.

**OBX cat back exhaust (mock Greddy exhaust) with 3 resonators to add horsepower without making the car obnoxiously loud.~10hp

**Rear Sway Bar tightens up the rear of the car to prevent body roll in corners.

**Short Throw Shifter with Carbon Fiber Shift Knob. If you have driven a 5 speed Maxima before you know that the shift is as long as a truck's, so this was necessary to add ease to shifting.

**Brembo Disc Brakes. I have genuine Brembo cross drilled rotors in the front and genuine Brembo blank disc brakes in the back.

The car is obviously 10 years old and has normal wear. It sounds real good. It doesn't have a "rice" sound that a 4cyl Japanese car would have.

All together I have over $3500 in upgrades on the car. I am accepting all offers at this point so please let me know if you are interested by sending me an email. Thank you.

$2500 OBO ADAMSTAIR@GMAIL.COM
CASH ONLY

The work the car needs is very minor for the most part and you should be able to do it yourself. If you would like me to fix the car for you I can do that for more money.

EVERYTHING IS FIXED.

except for the hood (it is functional, if you care about cosmetics than you will probably want to buy a new one)

EVERYTHING ELSE LOOKS GREAT...

you must be out of your mind....I just put $1100 into it...

I don't think I'm selling anymore because I don't think any of you will offer me what I think it's worth which is over $3k and I'd rather keep my car forever than sell it for $2k.
