I am sure that type of behavior will not help your case.
This seems like a classic case of your parents being way too involved in your life and you being way too dependent on their money to buy you a car. .............IMHO, time to leave the nest.
Plus, I don't have a job. I've only had my license since January, and my school year is pretty stressed to the max with honors/AP classes & four sports. Next year through I'm planning on dropping two of them and getting a job to help make payments IF I get something I somewhat like. I'm also selling my 2 year old ATV which will bring about $4000...and I already sold my older one which I got $1000 for.

Anyway, I talked directly to the owner of the car for the first time today. She said as far as she knows it hasn't had its latest due service (is it at 90k or 100k?)
I said well if that's the case then I hope the $18K was her starting price, but she made it clear that she was not budging...
She said it was cool though, she didn't "have" to sell it. ahh
Yea I admit it's kinda strange for someone entering college to be looking at a car like this...I mean all my friends drive around their Hondas or Integras with their fart pipes and stuff and I'm looking at a Lexus.
But it is like the prettiest 4 door car I've seen...especially with some of the kits they make. Everytime I come on here and see bluelex's sig I can't take my eyes off it for a few secs...
Thanks for all the replies.

What model? I have a 98 Maxima GXE, base model. It has 101K right now and still clocking.... Great car, love the jump kick on that V6 engine.... I still drive it along with my GS300.... You're right, the Maxima is a very good car... not in the same cat. as Lexus, but the price will make almost every parents smile when it comes to paying for it.
Do you know any good site for Nissan's Club? Sites for Nissan Mod???? Since, my 17 yrs old brother is taking over the Maxima and I want to help him to mod his car, but i can't find any good site for Nissan like CL's
Help!
