wow...no 7th gen for me thats for sure

Deckdout2 03-18-2008 09:01 AM

Just a wild guess here, but I think this should have been posted in the 7th gen forum. Otherwise, I do like it, maybe a little more than the current 6th gen, but the superhero logo headlights have to go.

MissMiami 03-18-2008 09:06 AM

I dunno if I'm sold yet. I like the interior, but it has the *** of a Camry.

TAZ 03-18-2008 09:08 AM

love then interior and the head on shot. don't like the side shot.

looks like headlight overlays from Bat will be everyone first mod :lol:

What a disappointment...

MissMiami 03-18-2008 09:16 AM

It's like the M's goofy little brother. Very similar interior and grill, but it's lacking...

huckle 03-18-2008 09:26 AM

WOW I cannot believe how hideous it is....It looks like a Camry in the back and some sort of Hyundai/Chevy Malibu mix in the front....Ugly!

NiZMo1o1 03-18-2008 09:28 AM

what the hell did Nissan try to do ?

black_maxed95 03-18-2008 09:32 AM

i like it alot, IMO its definitely better than the 6th gen.

Hilbe 03-18-2008 09:48 AM

Odd how they went to a single tip dual exhaust....

mad-max 03-18-2008 10:02 AM

Not as bad as I had thought based on earlier pics. The head-on shot of the hood kind of makes me sea-sick. But add an aftermarket grill, a 3 inch suspension drop, 20 inch wheels and dual outlet mufflers and it might not look too bad. I like the new steering wheel.

larsim 03-18-2008 10:02 AM

Sorry to say guys, but the 6th gen apparently has been my first and "ONLY" Maxima..... what a complete design disaster.......very dissapointed :bawling:

EDIT: It seems to me that Nissan is now going backwards on their designs! First they screw up the Murano - I loved the previous gen - but the new Murano is ewwww. And now Nissan screws up the Maxima...... :rotz: Based on these pics so far, I think the 6th gen looks wayyyyy better than the 7th....

I'm sold, I love it. From the G35 hood, paddle shifters, LED tails, all to the new bangle rear. Now if radiant ember would make a come back to the paint list. I'd put up and shut up to all the haterz.

jsmithsole 03-18-2008 10:55 AM

I've been staring and staring at these pics and at first look, it's kind of hard to figure out if I like it or not. But after a bit I notice more and more things that attract me to it. I will have to see it in person and see the specs tomorrow but I'm semi/partially interested.
Tail lights still bug me, looks like LED's though. I do like the bold lines of the fenders, I think the front shot looks tough (but yes very infiniti-ish)....

STARR 03-18-2008 10:58 AM

Looks pretty good, I see a foot pedal but other then that I want to know whats the powertrain

Dave_N 03-18-2008 11:18 AM

I like it....except for the Honda Accord grille.

I see the headlight/fender line treatment will become a design theme for Nissan. The new 370Z will have a very similar headlight treatment.

I did a quick lowering job....I likey...

Yeah, I still think it's hot.

!PrjctMax! 03-18-2008 11:34 AM

:wtf: :eek: The hood looks EXACTLY like the new Malibu and everything else looks like a ****ty combination of the Lexus ES, Infiniti G, and the newer Altima

xoomer.com 03-18-2008 11:58 AM

So far it looks like I am going to dump japs and marry germans. My next whip is either MB, BMW or Audi for shure. Question is which model.

!PrjctMax! 03-18-2008 12:00 PM

M5, RS6, E63

:naughty:

Ifightthefoo 03-18-2008 01:04 PM

Extremely disappointed. Ill stick with my 6th gen.

sonikbewm 03-18-2008 01:12 PM

I kind of like it but I'm still going back to BMW for my next car.

pho3nix 03-18-2008 01:13 PM

Stillen better get to work on this one....fast. Love the interior tho. It grows on you after a while, but I definitely wouldn't drive it stock. Those headlights alone confuse me.

BUT something tells me that the mod-market is gonna go wild with it...

Kryogen 03-18-2008 01:57 PM

MissMiami 03-18-2008 02:11 PM

I want. I want.

maxspeed96CT 03-18-2008 02:15 PM

Same interior as the new infiniti's

and similar headlight,

I like the rear, dont like the front.

AllBlackMax 03-18-2008 02:17 PM

I absolutely love it! Still waiting for the specs. Looks wise the best Maxima yet.

ouzo99max 03-18-2008 02:20 PM
