with the guy with the horse chasing the max and as soon as he gets close the driver goes into 5 th gear..

IT OWNZ ME .. i am not worthy

 

damnit,
I was sitting here on the comptuer and heard an engine roar. I yelled and asked my mom what kinda car it was. she had left the room. I heard the engine scream again and jump out of my seat. I was tehre to cetch the tail lights of the new maxima. Argg. so close, yet so far away =)

 

i saw it tonight too... at first i was affraid my dad would be ****ed cuz of looks on his 2001, now i think im glad he has it. damn they are ugly. the 3.5 is sure nice though

 

Oh yeah! I saw that earlier on NBC. I don't care how ugly the car is I will take it with that engine!!

 

I love that ad! The car looks awesome. I could have sworn the guy shifted to 3rd though, shifting to 5th at the speed he was going whould not have caused such hard exeleration, I could be wrong though.

 

haha, i love that commercial! i was sittin in the chair writing a letter to a friend of mine last night and it came on, and i had to mention in the letter to my friend about it, cuz she knows how i am about my car and all, and i told her how it gave me chills, lol...

 

IMO the 2k2 looks better..

I believe the guy on the horse is supposed to be the Grim Reaper, and the ad is basically the Maxima as we know it saying (puts on best Monty Python voice) "I'm not dead yet!!"

 

I saw the commercial too. It seemed the Maxima was either unusually loud, or accelerating hard (or holding high revs). It was clearly a 2-3 shift, but correct me if I am wrong, but if shifting at redline, isn't the 2-3 shift near 60MPH? Can a horse run 60MPH? I don't think so. Well, it was the grim reaper, so it may have been a magic horse.

 

I was going to say, 5th gear, a horse, WTF!? Thats one fast horse or one slow max!

 

that is a good yet funny point..

 

thats interesting.. i didn't think of it that way..

 

I think the commercial is stupid, but I have little love for Nissan anyway......

I'm not a 5-speed know-it-all by any means, but he was shifting into 5th; it was too far right to be going into 3rd........but it was staged anyway.

I liked their previous commercials better....the new direction seems iffy to me......

 

3rd gear or 5th gear...doesn't matter. That horse is hauling *** to be chasing a Maxima at that speed.

But yeah I think the chasing the sunset ad was better than this one.

 

Maybe the commercial is for a new bread of horse?!? It was hauling @$$ to keep up with the Maxima.

 

Heh yeah that horse is the Grim Reaper. Which means that the new Maxima is SOOOOO fast, that it can outrun death! I don't know of any other car that can outrun death, that's not an easy feat. At least, that's how I took the commercial. I liked it though.

 

LOL....FINALLY someone gets it right. He wasn't drag racing the maxima....he's trying to kill it. The damn car is just to fast even for death.

 

The irony is that going too fast (and not being able to safely stop) is what gets people killed.

 

I come home from a long day of school to read up on the maxiam forum, only to have another session of english class...lets analyze this, irony in that...climax here, dramtic downfall there...

sheeesH!!
