This is just a rendering...but a good idea. I think the HP figures are a little high but we should know in about a month or so ![Big Grin](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Should be sweet
If Charles Ghosn (Nissan Pres) is serious about becoming a performance oriented company again then this car should rock. The Max is supposed to get bigger, which means it will need even more power. It should be good to be a Nissan Fan over then next bunch of years: New SE-R, New Kick-A$$ altima, New Z, New Full Size Truck...I can't wait for the NAIA in Detroit in January

hmmmmmm
We'll
lets see how much this thing will cost, since it WILL have both, 4 and 6 cyl. options, this is going to be a good Camry and Accord fighter, but with the 240 hp V6...FORGETTABOUTIT!!!![Smilie](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

Actually I don't think the V6 will be that much..
Since the VQ is going to be in a whole lot more vehicles...it'll be in the Altima, Maxima, Pathfinder, Z, and probably be a base engine for the new Full Size truck and SUV...not to mention the Infinitis...

Hmm....It STILL only costs 20K....its NOT a 3 series/is300 fighter....but will snub most most cam-cords in terms of perf...maybe not in other areas. And for those that say "oh..in 2 years the accord will make blah blah blah...."
Thats 2 years that altima will be out. In the words of doug "run what ya brung"![Big Grin](https://maxima.org/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

your joking....right?
i know its just a rendering but, you have to be kidding me! its got the front lights of the is300, the grill of the max, and the real tails of the monte carlo!! is this a trick or something?? and as for the new altima being bigger then the max for 2002 and having 240 hp....if that was true then who would buy a maxima??? cmon guys, lets be real, they have to be playin with us. just my 2 cents, peace out.
its a camry, its a accord....no its a MAXIMA~!!!

I think that Altima is nasty looking,
I don't know what it looks like but it looks bad {reaL BAD},I don't care how many HP it has it's still ugly to me.
Does any one know how much it weighs?I figure 2900-3200?Just curios cause I don't want these altimas to be quicker then my I30 cause if they are SC here I come haha.

2002 Altima
That thing looks fugly. It looked great for 2001, but what the hell are they thinking. They should have just put the new engine into the 2002 and make it rear-wheel-drive.

just wondering, but why are so many of you worked up about RWD? Is it performance, handling, or what? I think there are so many great cars out there (lexus, bmw, benz) that i would have to think a lot about before considering to purchase because they are RWD. For me it's a matter of climate, i'm from MA and RWD is not very functional during the winter. Now a large part of the US gets a decent amount of snow, and a lot of you are proclaiming RWD as a great thing that every car.. including the altima?? should have. So my question is why would someone prefer RWD over FWD in a primary vehicle in a not so great climate?
