I'm on my third 4th gen Maxima, all three five speeds.
My first one, which my dad has now, is a 95 blue GXE. The only mods are a front strut bar, a rear anti-sway, and G35 sedan wheels.
My second Maxima was a fully loaded, black on black SE. Beautiful car, especially with the chrome G35 sedan wheels. Other than the wheels the only mods were a front strut bar and a warpspeed y-pipe. I got rear-ended by a chick in a Honda Pilot doing her makeup in rush hour traffic. Got an insurance check and sold it for a profit.
I bought my third 4th gen in late 04. It had 46k miles and was in immaculate pure stock condition. It is also a fully loaded 5-speed (it even has heated leather seats). Garage kept and a local trade-in on a new GMC Denali. The dealer was in the heart of Atlanta and couldn't sell it (nobody wanted a manual with a two hour stop and go Atlanta commute). I drove down from Knoxville and got if for wholesale. It has all the options. It is also the most extensively moded of the three. Mods include a warpspeed y-pipe, diy b-pipe mod, diy short ram intake, B&M short throw shifter, rear anti-sway bar, front strut bar, rear strut bar, Helios 6000k HID headlights, and a JWT ECU.
