2000 Nissan Maxima Se Sedan 4-door 3.0l on 2040-cars

Hello and thanks for clicking for additional information on this auction.

Up for bid is a 2000 Nissan Maxima SE with nearly 184,000 miles on its strong V6 engine. The car accelerates great and runs strong despite its miles. The interior is typical for a vehicle with this mileage, however it was a non-smoker car and there are no rips, tears or holes on the cloth seating. Car comes with a single disc Sony CD Player recently installed along with working interior and exterior lights. No known engine issues or sounds coming from the engine.

Tires have about 50% tread life left on all four (replaced at the same time) along with front and rear brakes and rotors that were installed in early March. The vehicle would make a great highway car or a just around town ride.

There are a few minor scratches on the vehicle as shown in the pictures, most of them are hairline and not deep enough to be seen from a distance. It looks as though someone tried to wax the hood with a brush so there are some hairline scratches there as well. There is also a spot on the right passenger door where someone may have tried to get the doors unlocked by lifting the top of the door. The weather stripping is still in place and does keep the rain out. The headlights like most vehicles with high miles and older are fogged and will more than likely need cleaned or replaced depending on your state inspection guidelines, however the headlight bulbs are about two weeks old.

When driving this vehicle the engine feels strong, steering is great along with easy and timely acceleration, however with that being said there are some issues with the front of the vehicle and exhaust. I am not a mechanic so these are my best assumptions. It sounds as though there is a small hole in the exhaust it is not excessively loud, but you can tell it’s a bit louder than it should be. Also when driving over bumps or uneven pavement there is a squeaking noise followed by what sounds like the axels or wheel bearings making a cracking noise. There is also some rubbing which sounds like the front brakes and rotors rubbing together when the brakes are hotter, not sure since they were replaced in March and stop like new brakes should.

I have uploaded a video and pictures giving you a good outline of the vehicle, please listen closely to the last about two minutes of the video for the sound that car makes when it goes over bumpy residential streets.

If the vehicle reaches its low reserve price I will see that it has an oil change and a full tank of gas for the winner of the auction. I cannot provide temporary tags so winner will need to make arrangements to pick the vehicle up with a trailer or have it shipped to them. I can help arrange that if need be for an additional charge.
