I like the way it looks, kinda reminds me of the new accord with the way the headlights look from the side.

I think it looks a little funky. &nbsp;It looks like the rear end doesnt flow with the rest of the car, but what do i know. &nbsp;Oh well......

Looks like a big altima, just the same way the altima and sentra used to look like "small maximas"

Agreed, uuuugly... &nbsp;What ever happened to good car styling? &nbsp;That thing looks very photoshopped anyway, I'm 99.9% sure it'll look nothing like that.

Well, that pic is a 100% real, sent from Nissan to all the major news sites. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

The Maxima guys don't seem to like it either, most agree it looks almost exactly like the Saturn Ion..

To all of you who like it, take another look. geez it looks nasty, especially the back. The whoel rear just doesn't flow right. The taillights look more like a conversion that doesn't flow well. Plus the rear 1/4 panel window thingie looks too far back, or the rear glass is too far up. The front looks decent, but too similar to G35 sedan.

I don't know what nissan is doing with some thier cars, but they all look the same. All the taillights are similar and all the headlights are similar, the best looking car is the G35 Coupe. The 350Z looks nice but a little too bulgy.

Also what is with nissan kinda taking audi body stylings, how some of them are kinda bulgy, 350Z and G35 coupe look like Audi TTs (but better), and this maxima looks liek an A6 but a little taller.

Anyway, nissan should get some new designs, I don't really like any of em except the G35 Coupe and Sentra.

EDIT: Oh yea did i forget to mention

it was posted on another board i check out and i was the only one who didn't like the styling... &nbsp;at least now i'm not alone. &nbsp;

BTW i just saw some 350z's and G35 coupes within the past 2 weeks and i must say they look even sexier in person than in pictures.

Nothing flows in the design, none of the lines match up, plus the c-pillar and front wheel well are huge. &nbsp;Basically I don't like it and the car looks ugly.

It might grow on me.....but I doubt it. &nbsp; <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/dozingoff.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':zzz:'>

I had a 3rd gen maxima.. made from 93 to 99, 6yrs in production. 4th gen, 00-02, 5th gen 02-03, 6th gen 04-??... 3rd generation lasted longer than 4 and 5.. why don't they just leave the damned thing alone.. actually on second thought that thing gets more and more bad ass each gen, mine was 190hp, 4th was 222hp, and 5th waas 255hp, wonder how much 6th will be?

hmmm one word WTF?

Wait, the maxima is going to be on the 6th generation? &nbsp;The model years between '00-'03 all are the same exterior of the car I thought. &nbsp;The only difference is the change in engine power from 222 to 255. &nbsp;That makes it another generation?

That new THING is F*&$ing ARSE looking in my opinion. &nbsp;They did a great job of COPYING the Altima into a bigger sedan and making it look worse. &nbsp;My parents have a '97 and that generation is my favorite generation followed by the '03 model. &nbsp;The '00-'03 models just seem to me that they need a little minor detailing on the outside of the car, seems a little sharp at points where it just should be more rounded. &nbsp;With a bodykit and rims that car would be sweet though.

ugly. wats up with all these cars going with this "euro" look? i hate that look.

The 97 does look the best.

The G35, 350Z, and now this, all have the same or similar rims

i was scared after the first couple posts that everyone was gonna like it because i thought it was fugly (that's fuckin ugly for those of you who dont know). &nbsp;I like the way the maximas are now.

The back end looks like they cut of a 2002 sentra and glued it to a stretched out 350z. &nbsp;Ugly. &nbsp;The rest of the car doesn't seem to bad but the rear end has got to go!! <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/crazy.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':crazy:'>

When I first looked at it- it'd looked attractive and now it looks like an altima and z morphed together and stretched.. pretty boring and dull to look at since they are used looks/styles now.. oh well-- nissan better do some real quick do overs on that baby or it better have RWD or AWD with some more motor power to make it a big hit!

you know everytime you get used to a certain look on a model of car the maker

f's it up and makes it more fugly , but then you get used to it, it grows on you, and then BAM it gets MORE fugly..

it looks like a futurestic piece of crap to me. oh well one day we'll all be old and we'll be like.. "do you remember when the 04 Maximas came out? those were clean."

maybe maybe not. holla

I think it's worse than FUGLY. &nbsp;That's the worst Nissan's done so far on its recent re-designing of cars.
