 I bought this car in 2000 with 14000 miles on it.  The guys at the dealership put 3000 miles on it before I bought it.  When I saw it had a 5 speed 6 cylinder engine, I bought it right away.  Now with 130000+ miles on it it still runs good as new, with no major problems to report.  The only problem I have ever had was a sensor that needed to be replaced & routine maintenance.  I just bought an SUV and I didn't have the heart to trade the Maxima in.  Hopefully I'll get another 100000 miles out of it!
