Yeah, I was wondering if they were Cefiros. Pretty honky car for a force that's paid $2/ week. No wonder they take bribes.

I rode in an I30 taxi in Barcelona that was badged as a Maxima. The interior was low budget- more like base Sentra. I was all confused.

Actually the US market Maxima body is US market specific.

The I30/35 bodied japanense made cars, are Maxima's all over the world, albeit with lower trim levels and perhaps less quality control than the I30 enjoys.

Interesting you mention that... I saw this Maxima (aka I30) in Nassau during our curise last month! Saw lots of Toyota Windsors (ES300) even a RH drive one... Amazing how many very large full sized vans are sold in other markets by Toyota, Nissan, and Mercedes!
