I remembered the saying for a reason. I have a friend who lives in St. Petersburg, but travels to Moscow for purchases. This is more prestigious. A person is ready to lay out a lot more money to carefully defend: nothing suit. In Moscow, I bought, in Tverskaya, in the boutique there are three pigs. And around the corner, on Litein, the same suit costs $ 150 cheaper. Excluding the price of a ticket for a red boom in two ends and champagne for a neighbor in St.
Money on a barrel! What is the most important thing in the business class car? The same friend from St. Petersburg (Mercedes W124) claims that the three -beam emblem above the hood. Our photographer (BMW 735i) respects engine volume. Another acquaintance (Cadillac STS) loves beer and, accordingly, appreciates the size of his car. Each of them is right in its own way and is wrong at the same time. Mercedes causes a feeling of class hatred. For annual BMW service, you can lay out the second price of the machine. Cadillac by definition is very expensive - while the allied convoy will take such a machine to Europe. You can list the pros and cons of any representative sedan to infinity.

Accelerate maxima in three stages. He stuck the first gear, touched and understand - you are going. Immediately the second gear, the pedal to the floor - you see, you are going quickly. To keep the tachometer arrow within 4 thousand revolutions, you quickly switch to the third and already enjoy normal fast driving. On the highway, it was not possible to drive Maxima-the time allotted to the test drive was running out.

The reproach is that Nissan does not burn rubber at the start, we do not accept. Firstly, in a business class car you need to drive solidly, and not in the style of Macho-on-Porsche. Secondly, if you do not swing the checkpoint with the handle yourself, then you can hire a driver-a representative machine and passengers in it are very, very comfortable.

The black, blind front panel looks very impressive in the new Maxima. More precisely, it is blind until the moment you turn the ignition key. Then she begins to glow with a pleasant light, which is commonly called the moon. Such a backlight does not irritate the driver, and in our case, it still looks very elegant against the background of black leather upholstery.

In the Nissan Maxima QX, there are a lot of pleasant little things, which in the complex create an image of the car above the middle class - special filters are installed in the passenger ventilation system that remove microscopic dust particles (plus for allergies!), And half of the harmful solar radiation delay glass with special ultraviolet filter.

Rule no.3. Beer should ... Sorry, there should be many representative cars. This is the case when the size matters. Nissan Maxima of the previous generation was clearly a slurry of the 2001 model year. The new Maxima has become longer and wider - only a few centimeters, but now it wins significantly with her classmates.

A long wheelbase guarantees more comfort when moving along our city bumps, the car is much softer and more confidently passes at a critical speed.

The increase in size was very positively affected by the appearance of the car. It became not only longer, but also more massive, which is especially emphasized by the new luggage line and massive bumers painted in the color of the body.
As a result, the autopilot believes that in this case, the proverb about show -off is not entirely appropriate. Of course, they are more expensive than money, but only if money is maximum half a bucket. And not $ 10 thousand
