Well from the pics it sure didn't look that bad,but it is what it is and I'm sure he's glad you helped him strip off the goodies.
Now how much for wheel and tire combo?

yeah we got off what we could, the megan racing springs we were not able to get, same with the drilled and slotted brake rotors and ceramic pads, and i would get an 8 if i could find a clean one like mine, my warranty was good until may of 2014 and had low miles, and it was well maintained with a brand new battery and fresh coils wires and plugs

Get one out of state. Hell I just saw a 2007 6 speed Stormy Blue in the FS forum with 13k on it and a ton of high quality well thought out mods and RPF1's for $13,500.00.

Hood looks surprisingly untouched; is it damaged at all? Too late to swap it? ... Too soon? :D

congratulations on your new ride. That was my other choice before I bought the 8. It was tough choice because I knew nothing about the engine that powered this puppy, but I just loved the looks. Hope you get many good years out of it. Oh yea, more gf pics would be nice!

edited to add: Be advised that he timing chain tensioners tend to be a trouble spot in these engines, although they seem to be more reported problems with the Mmaxima's Just something to keep an eye on.
