Nissan Sports Sedan Concept









So much orange!

What the Maxima used to be before the upstart little brother Altima came along and became the exact same thing only cheaper and better, rendering the Maxima obsolete. It has been dying an ignominious death for about 2 generations too long. Replacing it with this would be awesome and possibly inject some life into the brand besides the GTR. Or shave 2 doors, give it RWD and resurrect the 240 as a BRZ/FRS fighter.

I like the tailights, dislike the color on principle (Aggie here), and that roof slope is way too reminiscent of the veloster. I'm glad they put an aggressive 370 styled front end and nice taillights.

Nice concept, I could see a platform like that taking off.

It looks like it's made very similar to the q50.
The body is stylish, wonder how interior looks.

Eww. Over the top. How are we supposed to mod the exhaust? Front wheel drive? Is that a CF diffuser on it's rear?

The huge chrome thing on the front that looks like poo. No bad overall but the front really blows it

Love the detail on it, looks like CF on the inside of the front vents and the exhaust. The chrome on the grill and trunk lid can be blacked out, so easy fix. Dump the wheels and get coils, slam it and the things got potential. If it comes RWD and goes into production it would be awesome for the brand.

these new designs are making it a little hard to repair in the event of damage

THIS! The Maxima has been such an underdog. I loved my maximas. If they had slightly more power and the rear wheel platform it would be gold. I dunno if I like the design yet, not feeling the whole future thing yet.

Ugh...that front grille is a hot mess. It looks like they styled the rest of the car and then got to the front of it and didn't really know how to wrap it up / button it up design-wise so they just glommed on there. Doesn't flow with the rest of the car.

I do like the roof line side profile. A clear nod to the GT-R.
