Stopped by the dealer yesterday...

I was taking my girlfriend to the Mazda dealership in the morning to pick up her car (CD stuck in the player!). It just so happens that there's a Nissan dealership right next door, and so while she's doing her paperwork, I start looking around for the Alti. At first I was a little baffled, I couldn't find a single one from where I was sittin in the parking lot.

I got out of the car and walked around and then I saw it...

Chillin there in the glorious morning sun....it was a beautiful sight: A manual, fully loaded, white 3.5 SE tinted all the way around (except front), and it LOOKED like it was lowered (I'm not sure, are the SE's just low stock?). The car looks MUCH more aggressive in person than on paper...that's the one thing that sticks out in my mind. It kinda reminded me of a 300M in stance, but shorter, and lower. The light cluster looks much better in person than on paper IMO.

Overall, I was b r e a t h l e s s. Very excited, hopefully Nissan can work it's magic on the 6th Gen. Max (Getting a G35 tho )!

On a side note, I have seen 2 2K2 Max's since there was that thread going around about the counts. I have yet to see one with it's HID's on (I really want to see how they look in person) and I have yet to see an Alti on the road either. Oh and those alleged 2K2 Max rims? Lies, those were Alti rims. I think the SE's keep the same rims and the GLE gets new 6 Spoke rims that look very...distinct/modern.
