new maxima leaked ahead of NY show
im not a fan of these big cars, but suppsoedly like the new altima, this car has shrunk in size from the previous gen. I like the altima sedan better.
the headlights seems to be very similar to the 370Z in the other thread http://www.autoblog.com/2008/03/18/n...aked-on-forum/ |
I hate the headlights, hood, and grill. The rest is ok. The interior is badass.
|
Definitely looks better than the outgoing model which resembled a whale. In the side profile pic, the wheels look way too small. The interior looks good. It looks like Nissan did a fairly good job of hiding the cars size with the styling. The front doesn't look too bad at this angle but still not sure on the lights:

I have alwasy been a maxima fan. I love the 2002-03 models with the head and tail light s btu the body is lacking. this is almost the reverse. Hood and interior are baddass but the lights got to go and the rear could have really been inproved on. i cant wait to see this in person. the last model i thought was ugle and big but it grew on me. I wonder hwo big this model is in person.

the side body lines almost lresemble an is330

the size is actually smaller, according to previous autoblog articles they shortened the wheel base. they made it a point to make it sportier like back in the first gen, there are very G35 sedanish elements in the design. the interior is lifted right out of the g35 sedan
|
the car is not working for me. crush it.

Awesome! My daily drive 1992 maxima rocks!

The headlights totally ruin it. The grille reminds me of Volvo. It looks handsome, but the headlights too weird for me.

Taking a page from Hyundai, I see.

I photo chopped it a little. I think it would be better off as this: https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...1&d=1205864422 |

I think it's sharp (For a Maxima) and believe they'll sell a huge quantity of them. The new Mazda 6 needs to be as sharp as this, even though it's up against the Altima and not Maxima. That's my opinion anyhow.

I dig..

Looks pretty good, but the back could have used a little more of change from the previous generation. Hopefully they will have an AWD option this time.
...if only they still had a manual :( |
Hate it. Nissan is in trouble if that's what they're bringing to market. Sure the interior is nice, but, wow, I can't remember the last time I saw a car that was so offensively ugly. Terrible. Who the hell approved those stupid headlights? The side profile is so ugly, it makes my stomach turn. How do you design a new car that doesn't look good from any angle? That is ugh-LEE. Phew! Man! UGLY.:icon_tdow
|
The front looks horrible. The interior is way nice for a nissan, and the rear looks ok.
|
I think Nissan really killed off the Maxima market by bloating up the Altima to the size it is at right now.
I dont see the point of having 2 Sedans roughly the same size etc. I really do think sooner or later the Maxima will be axed. |
whats the deal with a spoiler?
Looks stupid. Do expect to fly or compete in NASCAR? |
