Finally they put it up on their website. If they make it RWD, it would be badass, tons of torque.

Awesome!! Externally not as nice looking as the current one..

But 290hp?? and it looks very nice inside..

I love everything except the way the headlights swing back on the bottom. The interior is gorgeous (especially with the tan leather).

I still prefer the look of the new Altima, especially the coupe

So it's got a tiptronic, but what was that about paddle shifters?

I just got a new 08 Maxima last week... Was looking at the MB C350 but went with the Maxi instead, too good a deal to pass up.

I have to say, the Maxima line has come a long *** way. They used to be ugly as ***. They are really doing good things with their styling. I don't like how the current Maximas, correct me if I have the model wrong, look like rebadged Infiniti G35s, and vice versa.

That's a reasonable price for a full-sized sedan, especially one with the kind of powerplant the Maxima will have. Although I'm a "Buy American" kind of guy, I do like Nissan's styling. An earlier poster brought up the GT-R and that's a killer looking modern coupe as well. The only Nissan I don't care for in looks is the 350Z strangely enough but then I'm used to the original Z and ZX styles. Otherwise everything Nissan makes looks ****ed good to me.
