First I want to start by saying that I have been watching the 6th Gen development fairly closely as I am sure most of us have. When I first saw the spy pics I kept hoping they were fairly far off. I have to say that after looking at all the show pics, spy pics and info that the new Max isn't something I would jump into (unlike my unbridled lust of the 5th gen).

That said and out of the way, I think Nissan, while doing a heck of a lot right in there design and engineering would stand to gain a great deal by listening to those of us that are the enthusieists. I mean some of the the things I really expected to see in a 6th Gen included AWD, a 300+ HP engine and a more elegant interior (as opposed to the flat, metal look of the 350Z where it kinda fits).- especially when taking into consideration the new price point. In this category I would seriously look at a new Acura or even <shudder> Lexus as they seem to have the styling cues down cold.

Despite all this, I am anxious to see one up close and personal. I will continue to be a Max enthusiest but will likely look for a used 2003 if purchasing a new car within the next few years unless somethign can be done about that horrid front end...

Where does the 6th Gen meet or not meet your expectations?
