Isnt that the Infiniti M series?
Edit: its back to Q series.
Right, but INFINITI is the expensive version. I want a rwd Maxima for thousands less. At least in resale prices.

Actually... what IS the point of Infiniti anymore? I can't think of a reason I would buy an Infiniti product over it's cheaper Nissan cousin. Is it the weird, oblong clock?
If Nissan built a rwd Maxima, I’d be texting this from the drivers seat right now.
You just need to go back in time, then.
Trivia: The "Maxima" name was created because there is/was a regulation in Japan that taxed vehicles based on width. Which is why all Japanese cars have traditionally been so narrow. The Maxima was a special, made-for-export (USA) car that was wider than the Japanese limitation. So they gave it a special name.
Anyway, early Maximas were rear wheel drive and had L-series inline sixes, which are what RB engines are based on. Make your own L/R Asian joke here. IIRC there was even a Diesel engine in the Maxima with a super long stroke that, combined with a L28 gas engine block, allows you to construct a 3.1l L-series six.
I don’t want to go back in time. I want later model Maximas in rwd manual with the 3.5 VQ and ~300hp. I’m fully aware of the past Maximas. That’s not what I was commenting about though.
