Also check the lower replies in there. I see mention of some new mecury vehicle its pretty stupid looking. Looks like a crown vic supped up.

 

its gonna be a big hit over here in DC, I know that! its "big body" heaven over here...Caprices and Crown Victorias are coveted cars around my way! 300+ hp, stock 18's and the police "interceptor" look...I think its gonna be a sweet ride! I love the stance as well.

 

Is the 2003 Maxima really going to be RWD?

 

I think so? but not 100% sure.

 

Imagine if they made AWD....man that would be sweet!

 

i heard the 2003 max would be based on a stretched version of the altima platform... too compete with the toyota avalon

I think I read in Autoweeks article that the 2003 Max will be RWD.

 

I must say, that's one of the most unbiased car forums I've ever read. Not only do they find fault with Ford and their own cars, but they can actually admit that rival Japanese companies are making superior products and gaining market share. That doesn't happen much on Nissan or Honda boards.

 

rwd or fwd?
rwd? i sure hope so...

"2003 Nissan Maxima: Redesigned on larger version of new Altima platform to compete with Toyota Avalon. "

thats what Motortrend says...

hmmm it also says there are rumors of a V8 Impala SS in 2003

and it says Honda will supply V6s to GM i think for trucks? wtf? the new 4.2L is darned sweet...
if anyone wants to complain about Ford... dont forget GM... contracts with lotus, best engineers... and they dont come out with diddly
