is the sr 3.5?
Just purchased a blue SV with the Dynamic package. This is a beautiful machine.
Much, much better video than the one I've seen previously last night. Very good in showing and displaying what the car offers. Thanks because you've sold me on this car!
You are very welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great job on highlighting the aero accessories, I swear not one review has even brought them up and they do have a visual appeal!
I just got my SL this week and it's the same color as the one featured in the video. Thanks for the great video.
You're very welcome!! And congrats on your new car! Sounds like a nice one :)
How’s it doing 3 years later? Genuinely curious thinking about purchasing
glen spence same I’m buying one
@@glenspence4509 no problems at all. Very dependable.
Michael Ford NO FUCKIN WAYY IM SOLD‼️😂👌🏾
Found the chirping birds in the background quite relaxing ... great video 👍🏼
Thanks, Mary!
As someone who is very clueless about cars, this video was very informative and nicely put-together! Nissan Maxima Platinum is now my favorite car! Thank you!
wow... SR doesnt get the panoramic moon roof?...Well my decision making is now gonna take longer
This was my prob., so that pushed me to the SL. Good move for me and I just love the glass ceiling.
pertown damnnn I wish the SR had the panoramic sun roof. I really like the SR now I have to settle for some other trim myself.
Yo. This is the greatest and most in-depth review of any product anywhere on any planet. Legendary job here. You are the goat. I am buying this car on Thursday. And I was trying to find a video like this. And that’s the same exact color that I’m buying. Your in-depth review is nothing short of amazing. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed! Good luck with your purchase!
Gorgeous car inside and out!
Beautiful and great vehicle. One thing thing that caught my eye was the rear heated seats as you mentioned and a electronic parking break. I'm not one for a lot of tech in my vehicle but being a top of the line Platinum model and it's price, it should have these things. Great review.
+Dustin Hart Thanks!
Good job and this is the best video that I’ve seen in regards to this car.
Awesome! Thanks for watching!
This will be my second vehicle to buy bro.
After being in quarantine for weeks, saving my stimulus money and money from work that they're nicely paying while this whole covid thing is going on. I finally bought my first car! Since my old car was my dads he gave me when I was 16 (a 2004 Toyota Solaria) and it was a good car for the 10 years I had it...but I'm now the proud owner of a 2017 Nissan Maxima Platinum! So happy! I really enjoy the upgraded speakers compared to the standard one my dad bought (yeah we bought the same car haha). His was brand new while mine was used with 40,000 miles. Funny we payed around the same price with mine being slightly cheaper even though I got the Platinum edition haha. He still says I better take good care of it or we will be switching cars and Ill get the standard and he'll get the Platinum lol.
Double dipping a fucking sponge
I have the SV same color as the one video I love it
How is the cvt in this one? I see a ton of complaints in altima,any long term high mileage owners?
I want the maxima SL in white so badly 😫😫
🔥🔥🔥🔥 you guys really did an awesome job with the video. By FAR THE BEST one
Thanks!
One of the most thorough reviews I have seen and answered many questions. Thanks for making this video!!! One question, do you know if the QV engine has a pully tensioner these days??? I would get my belts replaced on my 02 3.5 SE Altima and 2 weeks later had to go get the belts tightened due to squeaking once broken in a bit. That was soooo annoying. Have they fixed this since then?
I really like 2017 Nissan Maxima
I wish I had this much information before I bought my Maxima 2016..Two years ago..
Thanks!
How’s it holding up?
Great Review. Loved every minute of it.
Great car details!! Thank you for this review!!
Glad you enjoyed!
Thank you for a very comprehensive video.I learned things about the car I didn't know!
SO glad you found it useful! Thanks for tuning in!
I can’t wait to get this car
Me too!
Good review & great Maxima.
Still a good budget car for me to drive one.
Excellent video…keep up your good work! 👍
cant figure out how to access the lights on the medallion package for the platinum
I am enjoying my 2020 Maxima Platinum, the only issue i have is the light feel of the steering wheel.
Expect to replace center console and deal with display issues post warranty. In addition, shuddering is to be expected at high speeds with a CVT with very little to no acknowledgement on the ASE technician side at Nissan dealerships. Otherwise, besides the powertrain being garbage. A great vehicle. Please stop beta testing the CVT on the consumer base. More features more to fix.
i loved my 1995 maxima gle but absolutely love the 2011 maxima. hope to have an 8th in the future and hope its even better. but they need a 2 tier center console!
No they don’t.
Very helpful, detailed and informative overview I have ever seen. Thanks! Subscribe
Thanks! Welcome to the Car Confections 'family'!
The best video taks about maxima i have seen. good job 🖒❤
- ŇαωαF Thanks!
If they make the rear more specious and the trunk bigger this car will sell a lot more...great video!!!
+Jay Jay Thanks!
Gotta Trade My 05 For This
Nice job, guys, once again! 👍🏻
+jmburge As always, thanks for the support!
Great video, actually am only 16 minutes in but the way he's touching the car just makes me feel weird lol
Is the maxima reliable??
Great review, I decided on the 2017 SR love it. Just wish it came with the memory seats like my 2014 Maxima SV (Sports Package) model did.
Thanks! And congratulations!
How long you think they will last ?!
Very informative. Thank you!
meagan Glad you liked it! ☺
Might just trade in my Altima SR for the Maxima SR
AntiBroke19 waste of $$
chocolatewheelchair why
I am bit in dilemma in between 2019 brand new cherokee and 2017 used maxima to buy..pls suggest ...
What’d you go with
Sucks that the SL trim doesn’t get paddle shifters only the SR but its not a deal breaker by any means
Get rid off. That CVT transmission due to that transmission Nissan is going down
Omg i just brought this car✅
I did too two weeks ago
@@kerria1634 how do u like the car so far??
Can you put 87 in them?
Yes
awesome review... im subbing
question... can i change the ac temprature unit from metric (fahrenheit) to imperial (celsius)?
btw what was the song at 17:23
+darksscorpion Thanks! It doesn't appear there is a way to change from Fahrenheit to Metric for the climate control, however I think you can change it for the outside temperature readout. Also the song that was playing is called Thank You For Playing by Ryan Little. Thanks again!
thx you are the best
Is the floating roof standard for the platinum?
Hey Ben! It is standard on every trim level of the Maxima actually. Thanks for the comment!
I want the Platinum ... The SR is the sports version yet the maxima is not truly a sports car.
1:54 speed limit 16 lol? It couldnt be 15 right
That would be waaaayyyyy too slow 😂😂
Korea is cheaper than US. i don't know why. but only plantinum model is available.
Shipping costs probably
Does this have a digital speedometer ?
The speedometer is analog, but you can display the speed on the large driver assist display in between the tach and speedo.
My car has all of that
when you put the car in reverse..can you get a full screen camera view of the rear or is it always a split screen?
+Lee Cheek It is always a slit screen. It just switches from birds eye view to side view.
is it possible to switch to a full screen when in reverse? my wife's '14 Pathfinder has the same set up
Full screen only.
Having issues the the touch screen, it will spam the settings button or the navigation button over and over again, it won't stop ! Anyone have any idea how to fix it?
KingNimby w
Very well done.
+John Shields Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Car Confections I loved the video. I have a '16 Maxima and am switching it to a '17 because of Apple Car Play. After watching the video I was left wondering how both USB's and AUX connectors were lit up? They definitely don't light up on my '16 SR. Is that a Platinum only option or does the SR Maxima do the same?
Hi Ernest! I actually don't think the two USB's/Aux are illuminated (see 23:45 in video) even on our Platinum. Now the 12v outlet seen later in the video (at 25:42) is. I would think this wouldn't be something that changes between the trim levels, but I've never been in the SR so I can't say that definitively. Does that help?
Car Confections hey bud it does indeed show them lit up on your video (see 21:17 in video)
That video clip is stock footage from Nissan corporate and I don't know what trim level they were using for that demonstration
Good job
+Eliot Alderson Thank you!
No apple car play???
+CarConfections do u know the leasing price for the 2017 Nissan Maxima 3.5 S?
It appears it could be as low as $309/month for a base model with $2999 due at signing (keep in mind though that this is for an excellent credit rating, 36 month lease and 12k miles a year). Hope that helps!
CarConfections Thank you very much. The only reason why I ask you is because ever since the 8th Generation Nissan Maxima came out last year and i took a test drive and i had to say its pretty darn smooth so once again Thank You very much.

Was a good car, till they went to the CVT transmission. Stay away from Nisan CVT transmissions. There is a history of problems with the CVT transmission. Since 2010, Nissan knew of the CVT problems and issued an extension doubling the warranty on the CVT transmission. Then almost a year later, Nissan decided to end the warranty extension - leaving you with a $4,000 for a new tranny. MANY problems. They don't fix the transmission, they replace them. Add $4000 to the cost of the vehicle. They seem to go around 70K miles. The drive train warranty is 5 year 60K miles. Premature failure that Nissan will not back, if you pass 60K miles.
twoweeled soto you lie,u just bought a 2017 maxima SV it warranty is for 7 years.
Their cvt from 2015 they are better no belt it's chain last longer
@@luissantiago7772 That's what Nissan keeps saying ever few years. "this year is an improve model." Yet they keep breaking down 80K-100K miles. Nope, I've been through that story. I'll avoid Nissan because I know they won't take responsibility if it does happen to be another lemon like all the others. Lexus/Toyota CVT is world's better then Nissan, that's for sure. Avoid Nissan.
Which model has a sunroof 🧐
J Stacks SL and Platinum
the sr 3.5 l?
love the gangster rap OG
so what happens if you don't use premium fuel?
Nissan says it will reduce performance and fuel economy, BUT a recent Consumer Reports study found that their was no difference for the Maxima. You can check the article out here if you'd like: www.consumerreports.org/fuel-economy/why-you-might-not-actually-need-premium-gas/
Car Confections thank you very much! Excellent review, best on CZcams
Thanks, we appreciate that!
I run regular 87 grade in mine and there is absolutely no diff in 0-60 time or mpg. I've checked.
agentd36 nothing happens.
One of my most fave Nissan products to date, but the CVT / FWD is a fail
One of the strong incentives for me to purchase a '17 Maxima SL was the CVT. It handles the 300 hp very well. I've owned a CVT for 10 years now and it has been the most reliable trans I've ever owned. Gets a tad more HP, and eliminates the annoying upshifting and downshifting of normal auto trans. Think what you like but we just love ours.
Teddy Vee z
That's good to hear. I'm eyeing up the Maxima (hopefully the 2016 S) and reliability is probably my biggest concern. As someone who does 25K miles/year, I need a car that stay with routine maintenance as much as possible.
NijaBoiTellEm dont buy one with a extended warranty. Buy one from a dealer with a Lifetime Powertrain Warranty!
LifeHacks4All why not? Extended warranty you get everything repair shock suspension lower arm bump da
Whats the difference between the 2016 and 2017 Maxima. Any noticeable changes
Apple CarPlay is new for 2017 and that's about it.
No diff except the '17 has Apple Car Play. Not necessary if if you have a Droid. The '17s have more optional stuff available at extra cost such as the "blackout treatment". Basically the same though.
Teddy Vee So no cosmetic changes from2016 on the car body. Like front getting more aggressive or less or extra curves etc?
hows that interior smell?
Maybe worse after chili for lunch.
Like pussy
After a few farts?
I wish I could figure out how the standard sound system is...
Before I bought the 2017 Maxima SL (got it for the Bose and glass roof), I drove several 2017 Maxima SV's (without the Bose). Really the sound system was not that bad. I almost got it but the Bose seemed a little crisper, and I did not have to turn the volume up so much on the Bose. Plus the Bose sound surrounds you with so much of the music that you are just enveloped by it. I've owned a Nissan and 2 Vettes with Bose for the past 12 years and I just like the system. Maybe if I had not already owned Bose then the std. radio would have sounded fine to my older ears.

CAN YOU DO THE NISSAN MAXIMA 2018 AND COMPARE TO THE 2017 MODEL PLEASE, I WANT TO BUY ONE ,BUT I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 2017 AND 2018. THANKS.
+juan carlos hernandez We will be making a 2018 Maxima review in the next few days! Stay tuned!
Car Confections thanks.
4DSC?

Wait....so the SR doesn't come with the panoramic sun roof but it comes on the SL? What kinda shit is that lol. I was so sold on the SR.
Yeah it's very odd but true. For some reason they basically make you give up the pano roof for the extra paddle shifters that the SR has.
This Maxima costs more than a Q50
Great review!! but also be more real and say the things you don't like about the car. Shit.. when you were on the map, you said its quick and easy.. and responsive?? that was so laggy... lol and I cant tell because I have a 2016 Altima SL and navi freaking sucks!
This videos is good but you sound like you’re being force to make this video
Good lord worst front grill ever.
Miguel Angel Medina Rise not as bad as your front grille lol fugly
Isn't that the coolest grill you've ever seen?! Nothing like it out there. All my buds just think its gnarly.
I disagree. Lexus has the worse front grill
Looks beautiful to me
Shut up
