2017 Nissan Maxima SR Midnight Edition – HD Road Test Review

by

Is the coolest Maxima in ages also the best? We found out over a week of driving the 2017 Maxima SR Midnight and came away impressed, if full of caveats.  And understanding some of the fanboy hate for the Maxima’s drivetrain these days. We didn’t get too bogged down by worries about how true a 4DSC the Maxima really is in this generation.  You see, describing Maxima as a four-door sports car sets some pretty unrealistic performance expectations.

The upgrade is a full gloss black dip for many design details, the grille and surround, tail and rear spoiler.
