  My dad had a brand new 87' black Maxima SE. He dropped my friend home after school (back in the 3rd grade) & when he opened the door the max said "right door ajar". My buddy came to school the next day & told the class "Floyd's dad owns Knight Rider"!! 🤣🤣🤣❤

  This interior is more well built than most of Nissan's modern cars.

  This car is very much inline with Doug's clothing choices.

  Oh man, I had a used one of these babies back in 1991 in my senior year in high school. This thing was absolutely awesome! And that cornering light was really great especially in helping you see pedestrians and helping them see you. Really miss this beauty!

  When Doug was on a date in high school, he said this to the girl <b>every</b> time: &quot;First, I&apos;m going to kiss you. Then, I&apos;ll check out your quirks and features. Finally, I&apos;m going to give you a Doug Score.&quot;

  Man…I’d drive this even today. Such clean lines.

  Imagine doing a handbrake turn and it just says ”Handbrake is on”

  I ordered a black 1985 Maxima SE in August of 1984 and finally got it the day before Thanksgiving 1984. The SE was the actual sporty version with a manual, blacked out trim, and a sport interior vs. the “luxury” version you tested. In 1996 I bought a used 1986 Maxima wagon as a second vehicle. I enjoyed both versions (“sporty” and “luxury”) but the manual SE was the most fun to drive.

  I found it, the most &quot;car-looking&quot; car

  It’s amazing that Doug hasn’t separated it into “Dougscore” and “Dougscore Classic”

  I personally like the boxy styling

  I rode in one of these. It was so luxurious at that time.
