Rear looks like a Toyota Yaris, front has the flatness of a Charger, and the lights look like someone got Photoshop-happy

FAIL at looks...

This is not a car, so much as a contestant for world's weirdest headlight contest! What the hell were they thinking??!?!! They could have made it look Skyline and G37 esque, but they've failed miserably...

Aside from the Toyotastic rear, it's an improvement over the beached whale of today's Maxima. Still doesn't beat the '89-94:

This thing is a freaking abomination.


How that headlight and rear design got approval is beyond my wildest imagination. What kind of crack are they smoking at JP Nissan?

Almost looks like the photos are taken to show off the car's worst angles - I wouldn't mind seeing some more shots before making a call.

But the headlights are awful - they're not supposed to wrap around shutlines guys...

The interior better be made of blow jobs to make up for the outside.

What is it with the urge Japanese auto makers have to overstyle their cars today? Case in point, see both cars mentioned above...

The back actually looks pretty good. They should really reconsider the front styling though...images/smilies/puke.gif
