Don't trust just anyone to insure your car. see me: Hal Mayer 2861 Sherwood Heights D t 829-5200 N issan prom ises worry-free 2 0 0 0 M axim a N issan's all-new, year- 2000 Maxima executive sports-sedan is expected to debut in Canadian and U.S. dealer showrooms this summer. It is longer, larger, more pow erful and luxurious than ever before. It also has the most front head room, front leg room, inte rior and trunk space in its class. The new Maxima is powered by a re engineered version of the 3.0-litre V6 engine which inde pendent experts have consistently rated as one of the world's "10 Best Engines" for the past five years. In the new Maxima, it is rated at a class-leading 222 hp. It also offers dri vers a worry-free ownership experience with tune- ups not needed more often than every 100,000-miles. The new Maxima's distinc tively sleek exterior and hand some, roomy interior were creat ed at Nissan Design International Inc. in La Jolla, California. Since 1995, Maxima has also been known for its silky-smooth and potent V6 engine. Apart from repeatedly being named one of the "10 Best Engines" by Ward's Auto World, it was hailed this year's " simply ... the best V6 engine available in America" A special muffler flap valve, using high temperature aero space spring technology and materials, opens at 3,000 rpm and above - reducing exhaust system back-pressure. In combination, these changes help boost the engine's horsepower from 190 to 222. Torque rises from 205 ft-lbs. to 217 ft-lbs. The revised Maxima engine offers a 100,000-mile tune- up interval through adoption of double- tipped platinum spark plugs. This should yield a worry-free driving experience and lower projected ownership costs. A long-standing tradition, Maximas are offered with a choice of 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic. The manu al is standard on GXE and SE. The automatic is optional on GXE and SE and standard equipment on the GLE. Nissan's innovative rear Multi-Link Beam suspension allows Maxima to offer precise handling and cornering with out standing stability. Maxima's exceptional perfor mance is complemented by stan dard 4-wheel disc brakes with 4- channel/4-sensor Anti-lock Brakes. Traction Control is stan dard on Maximas with automat ic transmission. The engine- speed-sensitive power rack-and- pinion steering adopts the same computer controls as those used on the Infiniti Q45.
