Emblems showing Power

I was passing by a few cars today and I looked at the main Maxima competitors. The Honda Accord and the Toyota Camry. They both have V6 emblems to show that they are 'powerful' Since our cars don't have the emblem, does that mean we are slower? (This was just another waste of a post)

They have 4 cylinder options on their car, we don't.

Yeah I knew someone was going to bring that up. Another one of my dumb newbie mistakes.

I was thinking about the same issue awhile ago. But it makes sense...for Maximas, V6 is just normal. On Accords, Camrys, etc... it's the "top-of-the-line."

here's something to make it more confusing for Accords.. there's the LX-V6 and the EX-V6.

True to what Nissan advertises... Maxima - Cars like it: 0

The altima has the v6 badge for 3.5L because the other two trim levels, the 2.5SL and 2.5S have 4-cylinder engines.

Yeah! Some Maxima.org users tried to put me down before in another thread for being new to the site. It was pretty fun because I had a funny comeback IMO.
