1981 Datsun 810, aka 1981 Nissan Maxima [Down On The Street]

PCH, Rear-Drive Japanese Sedan Hoonage Edition: Cressida or Maxima?

2010 Nissan Maxima Diesel Coming The Only Way We'd Buy It: Stick Shift
Nissan just picked up a few points in our book for reversing the trend and announcing that the 2010 Nissan Maxima Diesel will be offered only with a manual cog-swapper, just in time for the oil-fueled American Civil War of 2009. Why Nissan's avoiding the large, slow-footed market after the...

2008 Chevy Malibu, Transformed, Rolling Out...As A Chinese Police Car
Sure, the 2008 Chevy Malibu's selling better than the last model, but it's still an orgasm of mid-size mediocrity like everything else in the class of cars that include the Toyota Camry, Honda Accord and the Ford Fusion. Sure, the Nissan Maxima may be somewhat sporty, but nobody's going to...

Project Car Hell, LeMons Edition: CRX or BMW? [Choose Your Eternity]
The Honda CRX is small, fast, handles well, and can be had dirt freakin' cheap if you don't care what it looks like. We like the looks of this '89 CRX, which is priced just at the $500 LeMons ceiling, but that ceiling is obviously made of very stretchy stuff, plus the seller will not refuse any "R...

New VQ Review: Nissan Adds Power, Fuel Economy to V6s [News]
We've been fans of Nissan's torquey VQ-series V6s from the first time we slid behind the wheel of a 350Z, and subsequently, when we accidentally lit up the front meats of a Maxima in view of local law enforcement patroling a school zone (yeah, that ended well). Now, the company says it's reji...

Second Story Man: Tipster Says He's Seen the BMW "X6" [Gossip]
The easiest way to describe it is that it's definitely based on the 5-series platform (with a newer, more aggressive looking fascia). Everything from the nose to the B-pillar looks pretty standard, but it's when you get past the C-pillar that it gets interesting. Basically it looks like a f...
