 Following up from my last review April 2012.  Today the car has 45k miles & still loving it. The wear and tear is holding up well.  Leather seats still in great shape. In my first review I mentioned bad gas mileage.  Honestly it is no different than the average V6 sedan with 3.5L engine.  I took the car on a 570 mile one way road trip and gas mileage was not that bad.  In my latest ratings, I knocked value score down.  At 45k miles this car should be worth more than 19k. Still dealing with knock noise at 30mph.  When running AC sitting at stop light or traffic the RPM idles lower than normal.  Dealership said that is normal with compressor kicking in.  Um..yeah. Still love my Maxima though.
