Saw this photo on Infiniti's instagram and thought about the previous shift **** threads with people installing the new maxima shift *****. First time seeing this so I'm assuming the new Q60s is the first (only?) vehicle it's introduced in. Curious to see how it flows with our interiors. Love the shift boot and the double stitching.

Let us know - that's a terrific idea for a swap!

Yep, diggin' that one for sure!

I guess once you're able to order them I'll entertain the idea and post. Looks tempting to try.

I also like that AT **** better than the G's. It looks (!) shorter, with a less tapered base, and a flat-ish top. I suspect it's more natural clicking through the gears (in manual mode) than your ****, which is more like a traditional 6MT handle. And since you really aren't shifting per se, you're just nudging it front or back... IDK, it just looks good.

That interior, however. What a freaking mess! A cheap vinyl boot, carbon fiber everywhere, jewel-cut *****, piano black plastics, and high-contrast stitching. Ugh. It looks like a Cadillac interior... all pimp, no taste.

I bought new OEM AT **** from JDM $60

I had one for a week or so while my car was getting repaired, I did not care for the interior of the Q50 at all. It seemed much cheaper than the G37.

Yeah I agree, I think the outside is amazing but the inside is pretty spartan. I think Nissan got it right with the new Maxima.

I've never sat inside the new Maxima but from the pictures it does look pretty nice (for the top of the line models). Unfortunately, the exterior looks hideous. Also, I hate how the speedo/tach lights are white while the rest of the dash/center console is amber on the newer Nissans.

The 8th Gen Maxima exterior is a stylized mess (IMO), but the interior is very comfortable and very rewarding. Car feels much larger than it actually is. It also feels more sporty than it actually is, and more upscale than it actually is.

These are traits that have always applied to the Maxima. It's a fine FWD sedan. You could do much worse.

Looks good I think. Just my take on it, I colored the stiching red to match my interior. Also left the silver ring on as I think it ties in with everything.

Wow that looks really nice. How was the fitment? Have to do any modding?

Do you have any more pics?

Another member put one on his vert and posted in the "what did you do to your coupe today" thread recently. The shifter worked fine out the box. You will have to buy the Q60 shift boot as well and work with that to fit the old shift boot frame as the one it comes with isn't the same shape. Not too hard. I also liked the look of the old silver ring that came on the stock shift boot so I bored it out to fit the new shifter and new boot. I'm at work now but can take a few more pics in the coming days. Were you just looking for more angles?

Looks great. Does it sit too high?
