The best Maximas that were built were the first and second generation models. After that, they went too mainstream.

. . . .

Not a big fan. In fact, given a choice of three Japanese sedans (Toyota, Nissan and Honda) I think I would roll a new Accord before a Maxima or Camry.

Best looking Maximas were 1990 Black SE's. I wanted one of those so bad at the time. It was a very sexy car. This just looks like a mom car.

Not feeling the rear or the front... Interior looks good.

I kinda like it... well compared to the current maxima anyways. And aside from those wild headlights the front looks pretty nice, i like the whole R34 grill thing theyve got going.

Its pretty swoopy in the lines area.

That hood goes into a high lip coming off the a-pillars that flows into the front bumper... very different look into a wavy hood. Like an elephant sat on it or something

Wouldn't call it bad looking....
but I do like the more chisseled look of the Accord...especially the coupe

Looks like a GTR and a Volvo S-80 got busy and this was the horrible result.

IMO, that was the best body style they made. I always got a kick out of the "4DSC" sticker on the window.
