One thing I DONT miss about my 03 Maxima is the crappy turning radius. Love the tighter turning of the G. Making a u-turn in the maxima felt like I was driving a stretch limo. Hell, the queen mary makes tighter turns than a 5th gen maxima

Is the 22 MPG real?

I wonder if I sacrificed any performance by getting on it with only 500 miles, but I suppose it'll take a dyno run to figure that out. I seem to be getting 22 mpg so far. Has anyone dynoed an 05 6mt (stock)???

Did you get the MPG yourself or by looking at the dashboard?
