The 2000 Nissan Maxima: before you buy
CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2000 Nissan Maxima; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page puts the 2000 Nissan Maxima in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.
Before you sign for the Maxima
A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. NHTSA has 360 owner complaints on file, mostly about electrical system, engine and engine cooling and service brakes. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Specs, explained
It uses the 3.0L 6-cylinder and front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
It is rated 11.2 L/100 km combined: about 34 litres every 300 km. That works out to about $17.36 per 100 km at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles.
A good match for
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
The Maxima in everyday use
Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. Luggage space is 425 litres, enough for a family's bags for a long weekend.
Try before you buy
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Rent the Maxima first, and buy only if it fits your life. Rent the Maxima for a week and see how it fits your life.
Year and trim
If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first. Within the 2000 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay.
What it costs to run
Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $173.60 at our price setting. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car.
When you know your dates
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
