The Nissan Maxima
Here's the car that I've spent plenty of time working with and on.  We all know this is my favorite car.  I drive 2 of them in fact.  My main car though is my 98 GXE.  It's already way up there in mileage with over 110k, but I love it.  A 4-door sedan with a great performing VQ30DE 3.0L V6 engine with 190 bhp and 205lb/ft of torque straight outta the factory (1995-1999 specs).   The 2000-01 has an improved VQ30 (model VQ30DE-K)  with an increased 222 bhp (20th ed has 227 due to a better performaning Skyline muffler) and the new 2002-04 has the VQ35DE 3.5L V6 that puts out an amazing 255 horsepower.  No matter what, there's a lot less Maximas out there than Civics and Accords.  Originality and nothing but pure Nissan goodness!
