Gah! I don't know what to say about this, the new Maxima pics just came out and everything BUT the nose is awesome, those headlights hurt my eyes.
"Looks like despite an embargo officially dropping sometime tonight or tomorrow on the 2009 Nissan Maxima, the covers have been lifted a bit early. After the new Maxima teaser shots we showed yesterday that gave us absolutely nothing, we're glad to finally have the official pics. We'll have a full set of live photos tomorrow at the official New York Auto Show unveil.

2009 Nissan Maxima Revealed (Jalopnik)

 

The front hood looks different but overall I think the car just slid into the M class. Waiting for the specs now!!!

 

Looks nice, not anything radical like every one expected I guess. That old article about CLS type design? I think that rumor is now out the window. I don't see any cls lines on this puppy,,,a lot of yaris (tail lights), Camry (back end), and Altima (trunk line) though.

Are we there yet???? can't wait for the specs.

 

I hate the front of it looks like a tank...
