take home pics.

[sleeper-VAN]

so my dad finally got to take home the new maxima. let me tell you, this machine is a beast!!! the pedal is so sensitive and responsive, i didn't what to do with it?!?! and being a 6spd manimatic with the CVT transmission, you barely felt it shift!! now i've never driven a super fast car but i think hitting 60 in 3rd at like 4800 RPM's is pretty fast!! now i wasnt paying that much attention to the RPM's but i think thats about where it was. i do know i was like 2800 RPM's in 5th at 80 when i bumped the shifter up to 6th to see if it even had a 6th. but OH man that thing just pulled through the gears so fast!!! and this would be a great buy for anyone, my said he saw the most expensive model with basically everything at like 37000, and he means everything, glass roof and all!! so he figures basic model at like 34000 or cheaper. but o man, i dunno whether it was cuz the CVT tranny or what but the maxima felt like it pulled better than the altima coupe when i drove it? anyway, here are some pics. i took.

Seriously though...to talk about Nissan's having power is just a given. On the other hand I feel that they have missed the mark on the front end styling a bit with this Maxima.

My girlfriend thinks it's 'beautiful'...I always remind her that her opinion is just proof that she is not car-smart.

i like them. they have the look of the gtr in a way.

looks good I like the styling ++

[Dustin]

in my opinion........Maxima > GTR

I friggin HATE the GTR....WTF kind of sports car doesnt come in a manual transmission!!! AN OLD MANS SPORTS CAR !!!!! GTR = EPIC FAIL NISSAN!!!!!

I think the Maxima in it's own way is an epic fail.

Why shell out the money for the top of the line FWD Maxima when you can pay equal or less for the 09 Infiniti G35X? Then you're rocking either RWD or AWD and you get the pleasure of actually driving a true manual.

The styling is so-so. I'm not fond of cars where the hood doesn't touch the grille or headights. Just makes it seem to tubby. And I work at a Nissan dealership. I have to stare at all this everyday...lol

Now, the 370Z we have sitting on the lot, that thing is pure sex! And I even got to mash gears in the thing ust after it got of the carrier. We put her through her paces while it still had the shipping plastic all over it...lol
