Check this out dude!!!!

 

thats hot.....tooo bad the maxima still looks the same and still has no class!!!!

 

What is wrong with Nissan. It looks no different than the current model. How come nissan can't make a decent looking car? Can't remember one since the 300Z. Personally I think the I30 (I35) looks much better. Enough so that I would pay the extra money for it.

------------------

 

I'd take my CL-S over that any day.

Waiting for CHRIS to give me back my money so i can order a GOOD CAI.

I am damn relieved they didnt make it look good. lol

Id be ashamed if a Nissan Maxima looked better and had more power. lol

Poor Nissan......the '02 Altima is going to kick butt and force the Maxima into the "Minima", maybe even the "Enema". Why buy ugly? ............"I know I know, she's really a nice girl."

CL-S PDG, TR Typhoon Wheels, Comptech Sways, Solaris 9005, guards, nose mask, V-1 hard wired & remote.

 

260hp CL-S vs. 260hp Maxima = ???????

who wins! i know in terms of looks the cl will win hands down but i dont think the max is all that f*cking-ugly. i mean, on a scale from 1-10 and ten being the ugliest, i think the max is a 9....not a ten! haha

------------------
Future "bucket": 96-99 GST/GSX or 93-99 Prelude w/ bolt on turbo
Previous ride: '01 CL-S, Black, dropped 2 in....couldn't make da payments

 

hmm... the new maxima has more torque than our CLS.... disadvantage for us

------------------
2001 Stock Black/Black CL Type S
since 11/29/00
Scrached three rims.

 

i always knew they werent going to change it. Since they didnt change much in the new 2002 I35.. i just figured. But this is gonna be weird.. did they make it bigger or not?? Cuz i know the new altima is gonna be a little bigger than even the current maxima.. this is strange.

That new Maxima looks like shit! Why is that all these new cars have some sort of variable timing? Nissan calls thiers CVTC. Nothing like the real thing... VTEC rules!

------------------
Drive Fast Live Fast!

 

they would have to radically improve on the looks of the max or i35 for me to buy them again. i don't care how quick they are. i also had a 96 i30 t. i really was a loyal nissan man, but the new ones are butt fugly

Well, Xenon's have now filtered down to "regular" cars like the Maxima. What's next, Hyundai Elantra's with Xenon's?

'01 CLS #4055 Red/Parchment-all the goodies

 

realistically... thats prolly no more then 3 years away.

 

I think the designers are very creative, but had an "accident." They been staring at too many bed pans when they got to working on the rear of the cars.

i was thinkin the same thing, id that maxima was goin to be good lookin, i was goin toi trade in my cl-s for it also, or get it instead of the tl-s, but man is fuckin ugly as hell. i am concerned with the torgue and how badly we might lose to it now, cause i have raced a few of the newwer 2001 se maximas and they are very tough with there 225 hp, just imagin draggin with them and there 260hp, i think we might actually lose. i will be very pissed if they do beat us, but maybe i may like the newe 2002 max or 2003, considerin i have owned 2 others myself, 89, and 98. whatever it dont mater, i love my cl-s and thats all that matters.

But back to the topic.

Umm... Nissan... go big or stay home. They need to at least do a styling tweak. Surely they're gonna do that, right??? Like a slightly revised front and rear end?

the maxima seems to be getting uglier every model. but 260hp? hmmm.... 227 was fast enough. we need 6-speed and sc asap...

 

Honda is gonna have to do something radical to compete with this ... they arent gonna have their top of the line cars be out powered by nissan's "family sedan"

by the way .. whats the sticker on these?

ps - I am not even considering NSX in this argument. It is in a different league ..

you know two things have me curious...Honda said the rsx typeR will be the fastest FWD car in the world???leads me to wonder might we be getting that AWD rumored???and a 300HP 3.5 AWD 6 speed manual would be a nice slap in the face to nissan for ever even thinking of stepping up
