2004 Nissan Maxima: All-new spun off new Altima platform, permitting U.S. production. Expect power to be at least 260 horses.

My uncle is the general sales manager at a local dealership and he told me that the new max wil be rwd with a V8
option and will be based off the new Q45.

Yeah,

They are trying to upscale the Maxima, like they did with the Pathfinder when they introduced the Xterra.

Our neighbors both work at the Nissan plant in Smyrna, Tenn, where you all should know by now that the Xterra, Frontier, and Altima are built. She told me that they are to have Maxima production in December 2003. Z car will be built in Japan. I asked if there would be some Max's built in Japan or would the entire production be in Smyran, and she said the expect to build all Maxima's in Smyrna. That, in addition to the current models that roll off the assembly line.

They do good work here so I don't have any concerns about a Tennessee built Maxima. Now a south-of-the-border Maxima would have been a different story...
