My very first car was a '92 Camry. I remember driving it home and feeling sorry for the people who had just bought the '91 Camry(remember those?). Anyways....about the 2002 Maxima...I've heard that it is supposed to have a 3.5L V6 with 260 horses from various sources but has anybody heard anything about how it will look? Will there be a drastic change or is it just the engine they plan on improving? Hopefully I won't be in the same boat as those suckers who bought the '91 Camry.

I've Heard....

That they are just going to put the 3.5L engine in the car, and in 2004 they are going to redesign the body of the car.

If new models come out around June shouldn't magazines have previews any time now? How about Car shows like the biggie at the Javats center in NY. I find it wierd that they show what models will be like in 4 years but not in a few months. If the new model looks cooler and have a 260hp engine I would suffer the wait. BTW, any idea how many less mpg the 260hp engine would get? Just looking for a reason to get the weaker 222hp one.

There is just one reason to get the 260+HP... Smile factor.
