Check out

The G20 is the Primera in Japan and Europe, cousin to the Altima. Interesting, its guages are in the center of the dash, and its only available with 4 cylinder engines. Also, the Cefiro/A33/Maxima/I30 is available in Japan only with the NEO 2.5 liter V6s (funny, they boast here that this engine was Ward's 10 best).

just my opinion...it looks fugly

we're suppose to be excited about a car that has an ugly front end and rear end that looks like a friggen Daewoo?
looks like Nissan was trying to make the front grille aggressive looking but half assed the job:p

Yeah the Altima=Bluebird & G20=Primera & Maxima=QX=Cefiro Sentra=Sunny & Pathfinder=Terrano

I'm sure there are many others, but that's all I can think of right now.

I thought most of us knows that the G20 is the premira...dont most of us watch british touring car championship?

I pronounce it ASSTECK...man that thing is ugly. I heard that it is undergoing an emergency refresh maybe next year. A friend of mine pointed out that most of the people you see driving them are older people (I have noticed this too)....the dealerships are probably knocking quite a chunk off of the ugly bastards to sell them....and the people that are buying them don't necessarily care that they have an ugly vehicle as long as they got a good deal.

My weirdo neighbor bought one of those things. He traded in a late 80's mini-van for it. If I were him, I would have rather drove in the van.
