Detailed review:
Test drove the Altima 3.5 first. Nice car, but still wanted more. Looked at an '08 and '07 BMW 5 series. I also looked at replacing my '07 Tribeca B9 Limited with another one. Nothing came close to the Maxima's features, power and looks. Thus far I'm very pleased with my purchase (3 months old).
