The Maxima has been built in the U.S. (for domestic and export markets) since 2003, and Nissan has rolled out about 800,000 of the sporty sedans since then. Nissan’s self-proclaimed “4-Door Sports Car” has changed a lot over the last 12 years, but it has been one of the most fun-to-drive mid-size sedans on the market. And that doesn’t seem to be changing for the 2016 model year.
