This is probably the best photo on the net currently of the front....don't think it was posted yet here.

 

Something new.... welcome to the world of SUV-look!

Maxima says: "Can I be an SUV?, I am jalous"

 

 

Damn, that is awful. Are they smoking crack over there. Notice how they are trying to replicate the sharp edges of the Z on the front bumper and the rear. Looks like crap.

 

The front reminds me of a Q45.... but that square?

 

i would def take an accord ovr that

btw, great job finding these pics Beltfed, have a good holiday and new year bro

 

Yep so far thats the best shot of the new Maxima's front end. It's also the worst front end on a Maxima to date.

 

Hey no problem at all......same to you my friend.

 

Well, it's now the corporate look for Nissan and Infiniti. All we can do is deal with it and vote with our wallets.

I vote

 

Aztek looks better.

 

it would look a lot better without that solid piece in the middle of the grill

 

One word

 

seeing this makes one wonder how were they able to create the beautiful sculptured body g35 and 350z, oh well, never was into maxima's anywayz

 

tha is ugh--leee

 

Is it just me or are the fogs on the side of the car? Or are those turn signals??

 

What's up with Nissan... this car is a combo of an Altima, Old Maxima and the MOOORANO front!...

 

with 350z rims...

 

That's really ugly.

 

Looks like the Aztek have competition now.

 

Exactly what i was thinking, what were they thinking ??

 

lol its ugly...but not AZTEC ulgy

 

The look is too rounded for my liking.

 

there's more 04 Maxima pics here

With an aftermarket billet grill kit, that front-end will look good (but there's still no way to hide the ugly side profile of the car's rear). Nice find Beltfed!

 

That car has gone to shit...that's just ugly as sin!

 

I would like to add again, and to all future owners, it looks like sh!t. Thank you.

 

as ugly as an aztec might be and as ugly as that maxima is, its definitely not as bad as the aztec. the aztec is so ugly i dont know why anyone would get it. stick with the CL

 

langjae, those are cornering lights

 

Uh... that's pretty clunky looking. It sure makes the current Max look sleek by comparison.

And yeah.... Those better be cornering lights.

 

Did I mention that is one ugly car?

 

one word for that front....GAY =P

 

Sorry, that is one ugly car.

 

And I thought the Pontiac Aztec was FUGLY...

Nissan gets the prize now!!!

 

that shit looks too funky...

 

My cousin just got an 03 SE (replaced his 2000.) I've always liked the Maxima, and his new one has some nice features (i.e. heated steering wheel.) IMHO it's a very sharp ride, except for the taillights, but they were not that bad. But this new thing could kill the Maxima. I'll save final judgement until I see it in person. Because the G35's look much better in person. And maybe that thing on the grill can be removed, but so far...

 

We're their eyes open when they saw the design mock-ups?

 

FOr the record, this car is hideous. To think this is the Maxima....

 

damn 1sicklex, 2say ur dissapointed w/the styling of the new maxima would be the greatest understatement of 2002 lol



but i do agreee w/ur opinions

 

unsure, I am SURE you would agree. IMO, the Maxima is a damn near icon. 4DSC. I wanted a Maxima so bad when I was younger. My father almost purchased a 95 when they first came out. It's been out since 1981. Now it's even more bloated and less sporty. Just think, the 95 Maxima weighed 3080 lbs!!! 190hp, 0-60 in 6.6. THe new ones weigh what 3300lbs or more, 255 hp (really 240) a bunch of owners are gonna sue them for false advertising and are 0-60 in 6.3 maybe.

Hell, this is what I am afraid will happen to the next GS

 

Don't say that. I am keeping my fingers crossed for the new GS.
