Altima vs. Maxima (value?)

[Getarplaya1015]

I will be purchasing a 3.5ltr altima in the next month or so im getting the ''sl'' version i priced it out and its gonna come to like 31,000 or so my question is why is the maxima more expensive and not as fast?

It has a higher trade in value for one.but if you want speed you dont need to spend that much..........you want muscle you need to buy muscle

[01LTD]

Higher resale value and little more luxury

I don't have any measurements - but youcan assume that the Maxima is a larger car - so all things being equal - it might be slower than an Altima.
