Nissan Korea officials announced last week that their premium sedan Maxima is coming to Korea -- the first Asian country to have the car model.
The company added that they are also accepting preorders for the car starting Aug. 26 across 19 official Nissan exhibit centers.
Maxima debuted in 1981 and is considered to be Nissan’s highest-quality sedan. The Maxima model coming to Korea this fall would be the newest eighth generation model, which was presented at the New York International Auto Show 2015 in April.

The Maxima has a dynamic and futuristic design and a low-gravity seat made of premium leather etched with a diamond quilt design.
It also has a VQ35DE engine, which reduces vibration and noise significantly, as well as up to 303 horsepower.
It additionally boasts multiple safety devices, such as blind spot warning, around view monitor and a predictive forward collision warning system that automatically calculates the distance of up to two cars ahead.
The car will be released in the fall, and will cost no more than 45 million won ($38,000)
