um as usual it's gonna look better in person, definitely nice design for a fwd, could have been excellent with a slightly longer tail

Just a blend of the Japanese version of Stagea around 4 years ago and the volvo S80 a couple of years ago. At least the volvo got a V8 and AWD

check out image of the 2004 Stagea wagon which shares the same engine and RWD platform with the previously gen infiniti G35 saloon(Skyline V35 in Japan) http://history.nissan.co.jp/STAGEA/M35/0110/EXTERIOR/IMAGES/1a_02_01.jpg http://history.nissan.co.jp/STAGEA/M35/0110/EXTERIOR/IMAGES/1a_03_01.jpg

I think this is a half-step in the right direction. It still isn't in the vein of the better 4dsc Maxima's. It is a lot closer than the outgoing model. I don't know why door sills have to be so high. That makes everything else in a car look high, heavy and awkward.

I don't think that you can call this a "true 4 door sports car" when you have other japanese cars such as Mitsu EVO and Subaru STI. Then you also have the Audi RS4, BMW M3 sedan and the list goes on. They don't know where this car fits. back in 1993 it was competing against the camry and Accord now they have the altima and plus the maxima cost more than its worth.

why is ths FWD?? wasnt the previous one RWD?? i swear to god they have just ruined the maxima exterior wise seriously... wth have they done??? like that extension on the front lights should go and they should reshape it i think

hahaha the maxima has been FWD since like 1985. but i agree with you the small thing in the headlights should be gone plus the roof could be lower to make it better looking and it would be WAY better if they had AWD option and the 6 speed manual like the altima.

the new maxima is a winner in terms of 290 hp but the design isnt unique, that design does'nt look like it's even finished. I think that the engine should be upgraded 2 a 3.7 liter with a 320hp engine bigger body. the maxima has to live up to its heritage and thats not it.

Honestly this looks like a crooss between an '07 camry and an '07 lexus GS. Don't like it. Though the specs sound pretty good, I think alot of the "addons" or 'packages" as they were referred to should come standard.
