Altima and Maxima for 2002. I'm kinda excited about it.

 

Here's my guess for the new Altima.



Yeah I stole it from a website, but I think that this is it.

 

Really

 

Maxima specs won't be released yet...only Altima.

 

when will more information be known about the 2002 maxima specifications and pictures???

 

That looks like the Infiniti XVL to me!

 

Looks like a Neon on Crack.

 

Those headlights look atrocious...
That is a pretty fuggin ugly front end, at least to me...

 

ya that is the XVL. it is an GT-R version in japan that was made to see how it would look if that was the 4D skyline

 

We'll see in two days. I thought it was supposed to be the basis for some new cars from Nissan,maybe? The silhouette is the same though.

 

but from two decent sources I heard that it was going to be have a V8 (hmmm?) and rear wheel drive, like the Q45. Another source said it was going to be All-wheel drive with a bigger motor. The were from two dealership owners, so I am not sure how true they are. All I know is to make it a better car, it will take some real work.

 

I have a friend who works for a Nissan dealer here in boulder that worked the nissan booth for the Denver Auto show. He said the new altima will be about as big as the current max. It should have a 6 that will put out around 260 or so. I think what he told me is probaly very accurate, seeing as though nissan picked him to work the Denver auto show.

 

That is why I kinda feel like the Maxima will go up to the level of the Q45.

 

he also said the new max is going to move up in size to a full sized car with a large increase in HP and torque as well

 

...I could deffinately use some more HP.

 

does anyone have any idea how the new max will look like???

 

...it will be kinda like the new Q45. Of course they would make the cosmetic changes as they did with the current Max and I30. The new Motor Trend has all the specs on the New Q. 340 HP. Again this is just speculation.

 

I almost pucked all over the Hyundai look-a-like (Q45); it's nasty. I'd much rather the LS430.

 

there were pics up on www.freshalloy.com, but supposedly Nissan made them take them down. I did see it and I really like it (Altima that is). Dual exhaust, GS300/400ish rear end, V6...the interior kind of looks like the new Frontier, but the car should be a big hit. Oh ya, it's got clear tails, not like the IS300, more along the lines of the new Ford Lightning. Anyways, I've got a pic of the rear, if you want to see it send me an email.

 

You mean these pictures?

 

It looks like it has a Taurus front end and a 300M rear.

 

It looks like it has a Taurus front end and a 300M rear.

 

Looks more like a new Camry in the front to me and a new Monte Carlo in the back. I still like it though. The guage pods look just like the GS430s, if you've seen the inside of it.

 

...it will just take a little time to grow on me like the current Max.

 

interesting taillights.

Altima, thank god!

 

I dunno .. I kinda like it .. sorta like the celica/prelude lites .... like the fogs 2 ... my 2 cents
