2002 Maxima SE vs TLS

Just curious as to which on you guys would pick and why. I am comparing the loaded Max Se (Auto), and the TL Type S. Thanks

B

P.S. I know this topic has been discussed, but I was wondering if anyone had any opinions now that the Max is readily avaliable for test drives...

I'm not sure that the tired "Maxima vs TL-S" debate is at the forefront of everyones thoughts at this particular time.....

Autofile,

I agonized over this and finally settled on the TL-S.

Some points to consider:

TL-S adv:
5 speed
better luxury features
nicer looking (subjective)

Maxima adv:
available in stick
folding rear seats
cheaper

Infiniti I35:
all the Maxima adv with some added luxury features
BUT - somewhat more conservative styling.

All depends what you want. If you want the fastest thing possible then get the Maxima in a stick.

However, the TL-S is about a lot more than just sport.

If you want manual, and a fast 4DR at good value, Maxima SE is hard to beat, otherwise, TLS is better....

IMO, Type S. Period.

Why? I've said it before and I'll say it again. The SE is a fine car (drove mine for 11 years and 206k miles), but it has become downright unattractive. When I see one now next to my Type S, all I can say is "Eeeuuww!"
