09 maxima?

I dunno i cant really see much from that video. But supposedly it will be released at the ny auto show. And if i go ill see if i can bring pics for you guys. I cant really tell from the video but from the size of it im glad nissan is staying true to the 4dsc label.

Every FF car Nissan imported into the U.S. after 02 failed. This will be no different. It looks like a bloated Masaratti.

Hard to believe they would go from a sleek look to a bulky look. That grill and front bumper doesn't look very Infinity like at all.

There is NO WAY to make any judgement as to what that vehicle might look like when all the striping and padding and fake panels have been removed. We don't even know if those will be the production wheels. It might as well be the Mona Lisa with a fake moustache and wig painted on.

I never make any judgement until I can actually see a photo of the uncamouflaged vehicle.

I really hope that video is a mistake because the car is hideous.

If it is though, at least they FINALLY got rid of the front wheel gap.

well that would only be the 03 maxima. seeing that since 04 it was made in the US. i believe the altima has been here even longer.

from reading some posts in here, I have come to the conclusion that most maxima owners are midgets.... sorry little people ,,.

I love my 6th gen, and I also love the idea that if I wanted to I could put a ceiling fan in my car.

Once you go 6th gen, you never look back.

I value your opinion so don't take this the wrong way, but after seeing, driving and having experienced the 6th-6.5 gens, i actually felt that all the more the true spirit of a Maxima was lost.

I can say the same thing for my 5.5 gen, especially when compared to the 3rd or 4th gen.

Jeremy Clarkson might as well have been talking about the 6th gen when he said: "It'd be like saying to a new mother whose just shown you her baby: "Jesus Christ. I think I'm going to be sick.""

The only reason any ounce of the spirit was still in the 5th gen was because of the introduction of the DEK, followed by the 3.5...

Otherwise, I would draw the line after the 4th gen

I have no argument with that. Downhill slide started when they got rid of the independant rear suspension from the 3rd gen...

There is no saving things now.
