"New" Maxima commercial, is Nissan this cheap?

Ok, how many other people think that Nissan is cheap to reuse the 2K Maxima commercial with the sunset and change the pics of the front of the car, but when it is accelerating it still has the 2K SE rear and interior (Still 5-speed shift ****)? If you are gonna edit the front, how hard can it be to edit the rear and other parts also? Yes I know it would involve reshoting the whole thing, but the car is different. Maybe it is just me, but I think they could have done better.

I noticed that tonight. I thought that I was just seeing it wrong when it showed the back but the headlights aren't HID are they. At least they didn't look like it on the commercial.Yea, I did think that it was kinda cheap.

It was a great commercial, but I too noticed the older tails! I thought I was blind, or it was the lighting or something! Too bad.

Of all of the Maxima commercials I like the one they had in 89 for the 89 Maxima with the 5 guys in suits swooping in it. I think they were in the mountains.

Think of it as a good way to save moeny so that they can reduce the price of a new max.

Hmm, could it be because the 2k tail lights look better?

Personally I always liked the, "We believe the last thing the world needs is another car" commercials. Even if it was for a the Altima

I saw the "old" 2k Maxima yesterday night as well. They didn't change anything on it, except for the end, where it said "The 255 Nissan Maxima" and instead of "Nissan Driven" it flashed up "Shift" followed by a bunch of subliminal message type words, like "excitement", "adrenaline", "fun", etc...(okay those may not be the exact words, but you know what I mean if you saw the commercial).

And yes, I thought it was silly to use the old 2k for the new ad. But you know what, 99% of TV viewers cannot tell the difference, so in the grand scheme of things, it doesn't matter.
