1987 Nissan Maxima

From Jalopnik: For $1,850, This 1987 Nissan Maxima Could Take You To The Max…er, ima

This Maxima is definitely nice price, no crack pipe here, as anything in nice shape that's all there and runs well for under $2K is a deal.  The amount of stuff out there for the same or even more, in poor shape, with parts broken or missing, and run poor are abundant and the real crack pipes.    





I used to have a 1992 Maxima SE 5 speed as a daily driver, which was the first 4DSC or "4 Door Sports Car," and while it wasn't a true sports car, it was pretty close for the era.  The VE30DE engine was the same bottom end as the VG but with 4 valve per cylinder heads, variable intake cam, and variable valve timing, putting 190 hp through a limited slip differential to give a fighting chance at traction and torque steer management.  It was in similar condition to the 1987, but higher trim, better options, a stick, less miles, and it sold for similar money back in late 2011.
