Well actually if you've been looking at the Nissan Cefiro over the past couple of years; it's really the upscale Infiniti I30 of the US. But in any case that pic should be very close to the real 2003 Maxima.
Plus that picture falls right in line with the plans by Nissan to move the Maxima to a bigger and more luxurios class. Sad to say it but it looks like the 2002 255hp Max will be the last of the so called a "four door sports car". But then look on the bright side those of you with 2002 6spd's have a collector's Maxima now.

First off the Cefiro in Japan is being replaced my the new Altima! 2nd, I have a very strong feeling that that pic is photoshopped, infact I am about 99% sure of it! That exact same back round was used on the 2002 Cima(Q45, or what ever it's called over there) and I saw photoshoped pics of a Cefiro with hte same exact back round.

The maxima is no longer going to be sold in japan, now it's just a Altima, AKA Cefiro. The maxima is degined for I believe only the US market, maybe some other country's will see it, but I dow't it.


Another thing, that site said it is a "rumore"(rumer), that pic is NOT the new maxima. You won't see a single pic of the real 6th gen for a while, the first place you will see it is on freshalloy.com , if you see a pic else where it is fake..

For all the people throwing around the false rumor that the max is going to be some over sized beast just wait and see. It may very well be but I am willing to bet it is going to be sportier then the current model.

That pic is an old photoshop, it's been around the board a couple of times. If you want to see the 2003 Maxima, look at a dealership, The Maxima won't change until the model year 2004.

2003 Maxima

That site specifically announces that the Cefiro is the same size as the new Maxima. It also announces it will be released in 2002. As per Nissan News.Com, the 6th gen Max will be released in 2003 as an 04'.

I hope your right it would be very sad to see the Maxima become a big ugly beast.

i don't really see why they would bring out a new maxima when they just updated it for 2k2.

That's a photoshop, I doubt the next generation is gonna use the same hubcaps as the 2000s, even the 2k2s don't use hubcaps...and why would they make the area of the rear window that can't go down even bigger? That wouldn't make sense...plus what's with the STi on the same page, that's just a WRX. STi is supposed to have the projector beam headlamps, etc. These BS pix are annoying..

For you to be coming of like a little punk about this picture, you need to grow up. I thought I was sharing some new info with the ORG. What you need to do is go learn how to spell and now how to talk to someone, you little punk. You mention that the background was also used for the Q45, wasn't the Q45 a car that nissan produced?

Re: cefiro

Dude...Lay off him. Maybe you needed to do a search first..Obviously, since you titled this thread "the first TRUE pic...", you had to have known that there were other posts relating to it. Did you expect not to get any feedback?

Newbie punk

LOL! First off I am not little and I am not a punk. Next if me pointing out the truth in your pic some how makes me a punk please explain? Would you prefer me to just sit back while you miss inform all the members of this site with BS pics? Should I be quite so you can feel good about your self "helping the org". Damn dude get a clue and quit the attitude.

Yeah I can't spell good, so what? I have always sucked at spelling my whole life, I can't help it. Why put some one down for having trouble spelling? I bet it makes you feel good to put down others huh? . Now who's the punk..

dude.. do a little research... Cefiro is not the samething as Maxima, yes.. it does have the same engine and probably the same frame as Maxima.. but it's not. Cefiro is what they sell in Asia, so even if the pic is real (I have seem that pic before, many time), it will probably be the next I30, not the maxima. do please don't come in here and post "TRUE pic of maxima" without knowning if it's really TRUE.. and please don't call someone punk just because maybe we know a little more then you do? a lot of people has been on this forum long long long time, and I think we know a thing or two..

If you're going to go after someone's spelling, you better double-check yours first...

Seems to me that a light freshening usually means something drastically different is around the corner. For that reason, I wouldnt buy a 2002 Max. It will probably depreciate even faster than the 2000 SE I have! (If thats possible...... )

the cefiro, maxima, and i30/ i35 all share the same body. the only major differences are the front and rear styling treatments and engines (vq25, vq30, and vq35).

ummmmm....

well "if" that isn't the next max or just a jap-only version it looks kinda cool(in a kia rio kinda way), although I may get that sweet civic type R with 220hp dag yo thats sweet. No really who cares if its not a real 2003 maxima, just enjoy the one you already have. cause chances are the Maxima is reaching the end of its life anyway, yes sad as it may be. because we all know how stupid Nissan is as they usually never give the north american market the same great cars as they do the Japanese.
