What a I30 I would expect that remark from someone

other than a max owner.... just kidding, It does look like one but remember they are just pics, the pics in the brochure for the 2K also looks better, than the actual one, But I do like the front and back of it better.

I wonder if the fron grill will fit out Max's. It looks pretty good!

You know what...i bet you could trade with someone in South Africa...their front end for ours...they probably like ours better...go figure...The interior is not much different then mine at all (aside for the right side driver seat and the console on top of the dash)...

Maybe I'll try to feel out some south African web pages to see what I can get...Think the mounts for the front bumper and grill are the same for both?

I bet the hood is like the I30...

where the grill is attached to the hood and not the bumper.
It looks that way in the pic too. If we could order the drivers side seat from africa and put it in our our passenger seat would be 8 way too

What do you think the little raised patches on the front bumper are for? They're right in front of the headlamps, as the way Euro cars have washer jets there - but there are no lamp wipers on the SA Max...

Sure is a nice looking grille - I wish Nissan North America would stop deciding what Americans' tastes are, and just give us the nicer options

the interior is the and exterior is the same as the american i30 no doubt. i studied thier interior cuz i wanted to make that lil console on the top of the dash for a gps monitor but it's totally diff from our car. so i dindt' do it. too much work and the ash tray portion of the dash sinks in. ours just flows with the contour of the whole console. seats are practically identical with the 2k1 maximas with the whiplash thingy.

BLAHHH. what south africa and most of the rest of the world gets is the japanese nissan cefiro. the looks like an i30 with a different grille. the interior is the same as our i30's minus the analog clock. if you guys wanted the looks of foreign maximas, you shoulda bought urselves i30s.
