looks good, a step up fom the current maxima

but isn't it just easier for nissan to sell the 4 door skyline here in Oz instead of this FWD rubbish??

I agree get ride of this maxima shit, and bring on the V series skylines

The review says it has "Nissan's Xtronic S-CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission)" is that the same as the Extroid in the Skyline??

Front looks like a mix of a Stegea and V36, rear looks like chrysler crossfire.

Not bad.

[WazR32GTSt]

rear looks like the current nissan altima to me, which is a good thing

interior is a mix of fuga and V36.. not feeling the steering wheel though..

[Yo-Yo]

America's Current version of the maxima looks a lot better than that, shame.

The new one looks like it ripped the tail lights off the new mazda 6 must be a new styling cue, like clear indicators on new cars now

Can see definite similarities with the front of M35 Stageas too... pity about the Fwd, though...

Market here demands RWD, i dont understand why Nissan Aus dont bring the skyline in.

Oh well, Skylines get / maintain the Unique factor.

[NISMO]

I really doubt this will make it to Aus.

This is the US spec Maxima which is not what the Aus based Maxima is based on.

Our Maxima is based on the Japanese Nissan Teana(spelling?) Which are quite different.

This is the current US max

[a.ho]

this looks looks half decent. Wonder why Nissan Australia are bringing in the other version of the maxima. It looks shit. Whoever is deciding which models to import into Australia seriously needs to go

no body noticed the front headlights very similar to the new 370Z?...and yes the back is like a crossfire....Burn the maxima, bring in the Skyline!

[mjay]

ALL Jap cars are starting to look the same.. mazda.. nissan.. toyota.. honda..

[BLISTC]

i wish nissan bought the CUBE to Australia!

It makes the V more unique
