Looks nice. I love that rear spoiler on the Red Op. Is it me or do the seats look like they have better side bolsters!?!?!

The interior lines look much better than the current ones, IMO. Still, not too happy about the grille but the bumper is hot.

Yah that spoiler is like the aftermarket ones we have, but filled in sortof. And I agree about the Altima lookalike, I thought they made style changes outside to make it look LESS like an altima, I think it looks more like one now. From the top angle, that new front bumper does look good, but from the normal angle, I dont like it. Too many square edges it seems, not rounded enough.

New dash looks interesting with the modified climate control buttons. And either moving or adding the cigarette adapter in the front I dont know about, I kind liked the clean look with them both hidden out of sight.

But at least from the looks of the interior shot, no more ugly orange gauges!

woohoo...no more orange gauges and switches!
I wonder if it's possible for us, 04-06 owners, to convert our interior to this

Interior is nice. I kind of like the 04-06 ext better for some reason. I guess they took a hint from the boards and changed the amber. Non-navi screen looks a little smaller.

Well --- they ya on the new dash design by putting the heater controls on the bottom. No 3 screens in dash anymore...

I see they went yellow instead of orange...while an improvement yes, but not a fan of yellow either

I like the Navi screen

Without Navi you get just that little strip it looks like instead of a full LED screen

don't like the altima style cover that goes over the gauge cluster, but like the new gauge face

I like how the seats have stitch in them

I like the Dial Controls

I'm a fan. I love, love, love the headlights. Looks I'll be sticking around with the Maxima bandwagon. Throw some new rims on that b*tch, drop it and call it a day.

It seems a 6th and 5.5 gen had a love child....

I lke it, but certain things changed to allow me to still love my 04.

I would dare to say the SE still has a 5sp thank goodness. can't tell what kinda setup is shown on the SL but looks to be the same.

Far away front end look does kinda look more Altima. The front bumper looks good from birds eye view but from the side is it looks higher off the ground than the orginal 6gen

The non-navi radio looks tons better then the orange gay *** radio display.

The front end looks way better as well. I think the 05 owners are gonna feel mad for not holding out.

A few more pics













I actually dont like these pics. HORRIBLE angles and it doesnt show much of the bumper changes. I'm still trying to find some better ones and some actual specs.

It looks like the SE's front bumper is different than the SL's.

Just looking through other random forums. I'm on a lot of different ones. But whats funny is that these pics are official Corporate pics, however the Nissannews site doesnt have anything up about the car yet. These were leaked by someone. Trying follow the paper trace. Official introduction tomorrow, so I could wait I guess.

I like the bumper and the interior. Those gauges are sick. No more amber LED! Yes!

What's up with the fat-*** tires? Hoepfully they will come out with a sportier 18-inch wheel for the SE.

That's crazy, must have been leaked. I looked after you on Nissan News and on other sites. No word anywhere. A little pre-debut spoiler I guess. That's cool. Good intel work there.

I only like the interior. Really don't see any changes that grab me. Honestly think some of the current modded 6th gens look WAY better than this already.

Oh well - looks like I will be moving on from the Max family if they don't make a SERIOUS change with the next gen...

Like yours--Dude, your car is tight, I've always liked it.

Now strictly stock the 6.5 gen may not be much better but I am anxious to see what some of the modded ones will look like. We have some great looking cars on this forum and I think we'll like what we see once those 6.5s start rolling in on 20's with body kits and the other numerous customizations.

Thanks for the compliments Shift Matt.

I agree - the modded 6.5's have potential, dump those shaggy rims and throw another new grill in there. Bumper is decent as is the new spoiler . Just TOO BAD the designers can't design a DECENT grill.

Any word on performance upgrades or is it all a cosmetic change???

I like the interior changes from what I have seen so far. The exterior changes are nice, but I don't think I will be trading in my Max for another one of these. I am either going to wait until the next gen or see what the new G35 looks like...

The pics are on Nissannews.com somewhere?

HERE's the link but you can't find them by going directly to the site...

Glad my front is right , the 07's front end is definitely not an upgrade in my opinion...

Are there any aftermarket spoilers that look like that? If not someone needs to copy it, I'd really like that on my 04 SL.

I notice the hood has an extra crease in it coming off the headlights.
The dash looks good except it doesn't look like you will be able to do multiple screens.
I like the titanium accented dash.
The front springs are still too tall.
I like the rear wing.
Don't like the SL rims.
Don't like the "hood" on the gauge cluster.
The grill sucks azz.

Are the coming out with any Nismo products for the 07 Max or are we gonna continue to be the bastard child of Nissan?

So, I'll keep my 04, and if I can add my mini wish list of, springs, tint, fogs, and AT or RedLine Max grill, I won't be looking at a NEW Max until the 7th Gen comes out.

Late.

Sarona has a lipped spoiler similar as the 7th gen but not really.
