are you sure number 8 is the maxima??? my first impression was for sure an altima based on the rims, and the cornering of the rear lamps.

what do you guys think?

Doh!! My bad...<grin> the Lexus is a 330. #8 really is the Maxima--I got it off their website, www.nissanusa.com. The Accord probably isn't a competitor, I just threw it in. Any other cars you guys would add?

at first glance I thought it was an altima as well! then i looked at it and noticed it was a maxima because of the front cornering light (where a normal fog light would be)

why are the tails blacked out on the max?

That wasn't too difficult. You should post a HEADLIGHT test. I'm amazing at the headlight game.

I think the point was that, with the exception of the fugly ES330, that the profiles of these cars are amazingly similar (to me at least). short overhangs, narrow-ish track, and upright cabin. The distinguishing features are really only found in the details.

[why are the tails blacked out on the max? [/B]
That's 'cause Nissan only shows a color image, and to keep it as gray as possible, I converted the color .jpg into black & white, which shows the taillights as darkened.

Sorry but I just don't dig the new TL. Especially from the side. The Audi looks sweet.
