FS: 1991 charcoal GXE in diamond/showroom condition - rare

12/19/12 - SOLD

The time has finally come to offer my beloved third gen for sale. I really don’t want to sell her, but I am moving and driveway space is an issue at my next house (don’t want to leave her on the street either).

All original paint in excellent condition, no rust (not even in the usual third gen areas - rockers, rear wheel wells) still shines like new! Front and rear bumpers were professionally repainted as those bumper covers are notorious for fading and exposing the yellow plastic underneath. Car was ALWAYS stored under its custom-fit NOAH car cover. Car was driven in the rain maybe twice in the 4 years I’ve owned her, and NEVER EVER driven in the snow. Leather is in impeccable shape – frequently conditioned to keep is soft and supple. Non-smoker. Always parked in the shade away from all other cars when parked in a parking lot. AC blows ice cold, heat blows hot.

1991 Maxima GXE, charcoal grey on black leather. Approx 145k miles on a 21 year old car
3.0L 2960CC 181Cu. In. V6 GAS SOHC Naturally Aspirated VG30E engine/motor
2005 OEM Altima SE 17” wheels in DIAMOND condition (I washed/waxed the inside of the wheels too, whenever I washed the car)
asking: $3,200 obo

Features:
Power everything – windows, locks, steering, both front seats (8way power)
Automatic seatbelts (qualifies as an insurance discount)
1999 upgraded BOSE stereo w/ CD and tape deck (all re-built amp and new speakers/drivers)
Heated power side mirrors,
Sunroof
Cruise control
“A/T” power switch – can be toggled between “COMFORT” & “POWER” modes for either sport or comfort tranny shifts.
Digital instrumentation with HUD (head up display – displays speedometer on windshield)

Upgrades:
Stillen front lip
4th gen Maxima/Q45 leather steering wheel (100% fully functional)
4th gen Maxima sun visors
Q45 auto-dimming rear view mirrors
Q45 rear power sunshade (stock spec wiring) (can be removed back to stock if you prefer)
In-cabin trunk access
USA-SPEC iPod/iPhone interface (plays digitally via BOSE CD changer, charges it too)
Pre-wired for trunk sub-woofer (I had a small 10” sub but installed it in my other car)
Facelifted 92-94 3rd gen taillights, side mirrors, grille
Clear corners
Stillen front strut tower brace FSTB
Passenger seat adjustable lumbar support added
Llumar 20% tint all around (professionally tinted)


Recent Maintenance:

All 4 brand new OEM window regulators

When I first bought the car, I cleaned every single engine surface by hand (no power washing), and waxed every painted engine surface (firewall, fender wells, valve covers, etc).

Wow man never knew your car was so clean. If you ever posted pics of your car (other than the sig) I guess I missed them but very, very clean 3rd gen. Good luck with the sale. That's just begging for a 5 speed swap

Thx. The more I read my own ad, the more I wanna keep her. And I just might... who knows. Until then, I'll entertain reasonable offers.

Crazy clean. If I had room & didn't put $$$ into 3rd already, I'd be all over this.
