I really would love a maxima but just not ready for a 4 door after having to have them the last 15 years
Based on my back to back drives the Si I bought had the better driving feel, the ST was more numb, less exciting steering, the shifter was less exciting and loose, the car wheel hops like crazy in the rain due to turbo torque and no mechanical limited slip diff, an awkward seating position, it was more money, no colors in stock that I liked, ugly in person (interior and exterior), and possibly less resale value. However the interior was built nice, the engine note was awesome, decent handling, and the HP/torque was very potent. I be far more interested in that Shelby Focus ST coming out next year... no major drive train differences, but comes with a Borla Exhaust and other tweaks for only $15K more!! Ya Buddy!!
