That’s great that you review the base model. Because everyone usually reviews the highest trim and when people are looking for reviews on a base model are hard to find

You give great no bs reviews that really tend to hit on all the key points most perspective buyers would like to know about. Thanks and keep doing what your doing man!

Best review I've seen, man. Excellent realistic stuff. Exactly what I was looking for!

Hey man great video! I really like your twist on reviewing and using the basemodel and not hitting us with salesman type jargon. Awesome, keep it up! 💯👍👍

I love this introduction! Thanks for being Soo different and realistic!

Thanks for this review. I'm planning to grab a 2016 in early 2017 (when they're trying to get rid of those last couple to make room for more 2017's) and it will likely be the first time (in 5 generations of maxima) that I go with the base model. The standard features are amazing. Even the non leather seats are so sporty looking and we'll designed that you don't miss her leather that much.

This was a very good review. Exactly the kind of review I was looking for. Please review more cars

thanks for doing a video for the everyday person. this is the type of video i wanted to see👍👍👍

Great review! I ordered mines Monday and it'll be arriving Thursday. Pearl white the Camel interior.. Can't wait

You have helped me circle in on a decision. I LOVE this Maxima, it is hella sexy, sporty, luxurious and pretty fierce looking! I am going with the SL trim. My brother has a Lexus, and honestly, this Maxima has just as many bells and whistles. It is now 2017, and I don't see much difference between the 2016 and 2017 except that I can save about 5 grand on the 2016, so I may just do that. Thanks again for the review!

Trust me when I say this car is extremely nice, because it is. I, as well bought the base model last year in 2021. It's a silver/on black (cloth) 2017 with nineteen thousand miles, practically a new car. The power is outstanding, I've blown BMW'S off the road, the interior is outstanding, even though it's not leather. The air conditioner is outstanding, the gas mileage is outstanding (it doesn't, & I repeat IT DOESN'T DRINK GAS AT ALL). The stereo is outstanding, navigation outstanding, backup camera, car has every single option on it. I will say get your car professionally tinted, mine with the silver, blacked out windows (& yes I even lightly tinted the front window, & no I've not had any problems with johnny law). The car actually looks like a stealth fighter jet, the base model has the exact same engine as the platinum edition.

I'm a fellow teacher. I respect what you're doing! Earned a new sub! Keep it up man!

excellent review. and I appreciate the fact that you test drive the base model.

Good honest review & very informative... Good work!

I appreciate that you test the base model rather than the top-end models. There's nothing wrong with testing high-end models, but not everyone can afford those, and as noted, a base model pretty much applies to the entire line, taking into account upgrades.

Thoroughly enjoyed your review. Thank you 😊

Great review!

Maximas are great cars, especially the 3.5 litre V6 models. I've had my J32 for 2 years now and I call it a demon of speed :)

CVT answer!... People don't like it because in a normal transmission i.e. a 6 speed, the transmission will hold the revs in that gear when driving hard/sporty; you want and need that pause/hold in that particular gear when cornering, braking exc, thats why people do not like CVT's just as you said it continuously goes! And I agree with another comment already made! Keep to the points you want to make and definetly under 10 minutes! Thats just my opinion; I hate long car reviews i.e. FLD or something like that... 25 minute videos to talk about wiper blades, aint no body got time for that! Other than that cool vid, I like your approach and you warned us before viewing of no edit exc so we can't even be mad! Peace bro!

great video my guy!

Gotta like how you present the lower trims, thumbs up

Awesome work buddy

Thanks - for an amateur, superb camera work, editing and narration! (A little slip calling it 'Mazda' only proved you are human). I kept 1995 Nissan Maxima for 15 years. Was a great unpretentious car with a terrific V6 even back then. But subsequent models lost their way into styling wilderness until this looker came along. I definitely agree 'Maxima is back!' in this latest Avaatar.

Im your fan within 2 minutes of this video thats wise and practical. Respect.

I really like this review.. you are right other reviewers get the high-end model which is not what the average consumer would go for... thanks for this vid

A CVT can have a brief lag if it has to drop a large number of ratios for acceleration. But they are excellent in stop/go city crawl.

Best looking car on the market!!

Hey man excellent job a great thought process regarding CVTs! I'm still not a fan of them (having owned two CVT cars for my wife) but your point gives much to consider.

great intro, like the fact that you are doing a review on a base model, smart move.!! i completely agree! looks good!!(come on professor you should do 0 to 60.. its fun!!) for a snowing day its a great review...!!!! thank you for your time...

Great review... If you could spend some more time on the interior and walk us through a few major features it would be 10/10...

thank you for showing the base model! ive seen so many videos of the platinum or SR, its not that different and a $10K difference .

This video helped me make up my mind !! I'm getting those car 😁 ty!!!

BTW, first time I drove a Maxima was a rental in 1996. That was such an awesome car to drive! The six-cylinder engine was smooth as silk. My only concern is that the preferred fuel is premium; hopefully it does OK with regular for everyday driving. The 2016 Maxima looks better than some models in the early 2000s that really did look ugly or not what I thought the Maxima should be.

how does the car drive in snow? would u say its on par with subaru legacy, or not really bc of the lack of awd? Also, great review! Love the honestly! Especially after Top Gear and Fast Lane, THIS is exactly the sort of reviewing we need. :D

I love this 2016-2017 maxima its sporty..athletic..the VQ v6 is powerful smooth and the X tronic cvt is really smooth acceleration responsive..beat the bmw 3 series, acura v6 and audi 4 in the track..this maxima is true 4door sports car..awesome job nissan..

got a 2016 maxima like 4 months ago, things clean and smooth the lights look awesome at night. great car - so far

I bought my wife a 2016 Nissan Platinum it's in the pearl blue this car is awesome it outperforms lot of the cars that I previously had I cannot say anything bad about the car or the handling, perfect specially in sport mode, with all the options you get, the price tag you pay, you get one hell of a deal, my price tag MSRP was 43.760, I got everything you could possibly get on this car, I got the last year end model, a customer ordered it but could not get the financing. and I walked away with paying 32.280 Plus TTL, I got one hell of a deal, before you knock this car drive the car then you'll know what I'm talking about. one hell of a nice car.

Good review

Nice review although the Nissan Maxima 3.5 S does come standard with navigation beside all of the few features you've mentioned right now you can get this version for 26k which is insane being that it starts off at 32k so it like drop its value and price by 7000 I'm not sure if that's a good thing if some are planning to keep their vehicle and pay it off.... however it's a darn good looking car depending on the car I'd buy it used for the looks inside and out and especially because it's a v6 woot woot

I'm about to buy a 2016 Maxima S.. Does it still have the nice ambient lighting?.. It's like a cool white and you can change the dim on it. It wraps around the cars dash and doors.. I really like it..

Do a updated video on the maxima please.

Sick design! Car looks fierce!

Great video review. I am considering a Maxima SR and have noticed that the prices have dropped dramatically from MSRP, sometimes as low as $30K brand new. Do you think this car is worth buying or leasing? What about in terms of holding its value in the future? I'd love to hear you talking about value and long term ownership tips or advises in your future videos.

Amazing Mazda bro!

My 2017 is my daily and it's awesome

A CVT should always behave like a CVT originally was meant to behave like, "not like a conventional automatic". Only change I always wanted to see in the Maxima was the addition of awd.
