5 Star Reviews for 2000 Nissan Maxima

Overview & Reviews

Average Score

4.44/5 Average
199 Total Reviews
This Year's Model Updates:

The Maxima has been (controversially) redesigned, providing more power, more room and more amenities to the luxury/performance sedan buyer. Key among the improvements is 222 horsepower from the standard V6, a boost in rear-seat legroom and an available 200-watt Bose audio system.

Pros:
  • Silky and powerful V6 engine, sports car moves, room for the whole family.
Cons:
  • Odd styling details, high price, rough ride quality with SE suspension.

  • Awesome Nissan - 2000 Nissan Maxima

    I recently purchased a 2000 Nissan Maxima. I have no complaints. It handles nice and smooth. I have driven the vehicle cross-country and loved every minute. I would highly suggest purchasing a Maxima, any year.

    We just bought our 2000 Maxima, but I am already in love with it. I have been wanting one for a long time and after finally getting rid of my gas guzzling Durango, it is nice to have a sporty fuel efficient car. I cannot say enough about the styling and looks of this car. Oh, those cool tail lights! I just love em. I plan on driving this car until it wont go anymore!!

    I cant keep a car longer than 3 years, but my Maxima is a fabulous car and I want to keep driving it! I was impressed with the sporty handling. The trunk space is great, the legroom in the back fabulous and engine, once its in the powerband, pulls nicely. I do wish it had more torque at the low end..... The tailights are ugly. Wish the doors would automatically lock, when the vehicle starts moving. I was hit and put into a spin at 60 MPH. All I could think, was 1) Im going to die 2) Wow, this things even smooth in a spin 3) "Enjoy the ride!" Best car Ive ever owned in 25 years of driving...

    After driving around my parents cars during my four initial driving years, I felt it was time for my own. After some extensive research, I decided on the Maxima. This car has been nothing but reliable and really fun. It has ample passing power and still turns heads at 11 years old. Cant get enough of it and would recommend it to anyone. Also --- At 62 I do just barely fit....

    I bought my 2000 Maxima GXE with 7,000 miles on it, and now have 98,500 miles, with very few problems. Mine is a manual transmission, and has been absolutely bullet proof, and still has the original clutch. This has been the most reliable car I have ever had, period! The only issues were a bad mass airflow sensor at 37K (graciously replaced by Nissan even though it was just out of warranty), warped brake disks which I had replaced with aftermarket units that have proven more reliable, and thats about it. Exterior styling is not my favorite, but dollar for dollar, it is hard to beat this combo of performance, utility, and reliability.

    After the untimely loss of my beloved Altima, I couldnt imagine life without another Nissan. Man this car has everything but the kitchen sink! and Im sure that was an option too... Drives like brand new, everything original. More power than is ever needed, best factory audio in its class, excellent dash design, leather, & the moonroof is so quiet I forget its wide open! Great road car. So far at 115K, no coil/sensor problems (knock on the woodgrain) :) but even that is a small price to pay for super luxury everyday. Not to mention I bought this car at such a GREAT price I feel like the Dealership got suckered.. hehe.. nice turn of the tables for a change!!

    This is the best car that I have ever owned. I will probably never drive anything other than a Maxima. I love the sporty look but it also has plenty of room. It handles great and the acceleration is awesome! It also gets good gas mileage for a car with this much power.

    replaced my 2000 Oldsmobile Intrigue! Thank goodness! I am extremely impressed! The inside is wonderful but could definitely have more leg room. The Tilt on the steering wheel makes it hard to see everything. Mechanics are great! Shifts perfect revs high and im getting 27MPG with a mix of Freeway and City! Best car for its size!!
