Honestly, what looks the best? You can break it down to year if you like too. I know most everyone will be partial and the answer could just come down to which maxima most people own. I'm really no exception in that respect. I like the 97 and I think it's the best looking I've ever seen. I may get the 3.5 or even the V8 in the near future when I'm outta school and have a job. The V8 max I have seen is rather hideous, though. Don't you agree? The rear of the 5th gen has always been a gripe of mine, too. But the rest looks good enough and with a 3.5, I would still get it if I had the dough. But even if I had a 6-speed 3.5 (which I would love to have), and this post had been put up by someone else, I would list the 97 as the best looking. So what do you guys think?

 

Why dont you post your own poll?

 

You saw a V8 maxima? :crazy:

 

Maybe he is confused and thinking of the Q45 maybe? I have no idea where else he is pulling it from.

v8??? when di you see that? november 2020?
personally i think in 2nd place is the 4th gen, the 96se with the red and white tails. Dang that car's sexy, and first place, the 3rd gen. maybe thats cos i have one....

 

he may be thinking the New maxima's will be v-8

but why say he saw it

 

maybe he saw some protoype pics or something

Anyways, third gens look the best of course.

 

I love the "new maxima" thingsthat people say. I have seen it on here that it will be V-8, V-6, AWD, RWD, FWD, heavier, Same weight, More weight. It is crazy.

1. 3rd gen
2. 4th gen
3. 5th gen

That's what I think

 

I did one 2 years ago and the 97 - 99 won.. and the 92 - 94 came second

 

i wonder how many times this subject can be beaten to death...

 

Why didn't you do a poll?

I say 97-99 Maximas.

 

TOO many.

3rd and 4th gen's(97-99's) look the best the 5th and 6th gen's are too "hard" to style but there are many 5th gen's out there that really look good modded

 

5th gens look the best because they are the most curvacious (wrong spelling). a black or white 5th gen on 20 inch chrome is one of the best looking cars in the world IMO.

 

oh sweet Jesus not again....

 

He probably saw the M45. I saw one last weekend at an auto show, and I agree, it is pretty ugly. Waaaaay too conservatively styled, resembled a Mistu Diamante. Actually, that's being unfair to the Diamante.

 

the 97-99 Maxes look the best.

 

Anniversery Editions

(JDM style) Headlights
17inch wheels
Red Clears
(stillen style) bodykit
and a nice interior

I really like 4th gens, and the new 3.5's (especialy the headlights,) but would preffer them with red clears instead of altezza styled tailights. Any Max is a good Max

When I say I "saw" it, I was referring to pics somebody posted on the org, pictures of a car that I also saw on edmunds.com as the 2004 future vehicle maxima. Here's the link, cynic: http://www.edmunds.com/future/2004/n...tml?id=lin0830

Edmunds says the same VQ3.5 is expected to be in the 2004, but I had read reports that the M45 engine may be in the new max, partly to separate it further from the altima. I have been reading a lot of posts here on the org too where people are starting to think more that the latter may be true. So, I'm sorry that I stated a rumor as fact. Excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse me!

While I'm at it, to all you pious ****** who gripe about repeated posts: Why post your thoroughly unwanted two cents in here? It only brings the post to the top of the list where more people are likely to see it and post in it again. If I have offended you, let me just say that it's probaly because the words apply to you in the full sense, so go suck an egg or something.

To everyone else, thanks for your input. The kit on the 20th ann is pretty nice. I've seen another kit on some 5th gens on the org that make it look pretty good too. But the 97-99's with the stillen kit still look better to me.

 

Wow. Brian V's pictures made it to edmunds.com.
