09 Maxima 08 FX in white, EX with rack and 22"s on a G35 (argh)
« on: April 03, 2009, 03:09:49 PM »

Just a collection of pictures taken with my iPhone.


This was a Black EX with a rack on it.  Interesting, it probably needs bigger boot anyway.  Told the saleswoman that the last Feb Performance Car mag (UK) ran a rave review of the EX37, saying it's better looking than the G, and it's better than most wagons, specially those in the same price range.  They were saying this is the best Infiniti for sale in Europe, it's great short performance wagon.  They loved the transmission and the engine, but specially the way it handles.  The girl liked to hear that, but confirmed to me they're not selling much.  Lack of room in the back seat is the main complain.  She said that, for 09, the new EX will have more leg room for the rear passengers, some car seats actually stand in the way of the front seats in most positions, so this is a big no no with small families.

Its best angle!  I for one like it a lot!!!   Grin

The ugliest G35 ever.  22"s in a G35 (and those 22"s are pretty ugly too) does not look right.  But for those concerned about wheel gap, it's actually pretty tight.  Taller than a regular G35 though (it's taller than the C-Class in the background), it must handle like a pig too.

Why?   Angry

I suppose his brakes run pretty hot...it's like there's an orange cardboard inside the wheels...this looks so stupid!   Tongue

EX would sell better if it were actually the same size as the G sedan (its shorter in length and wheelbase).  I liked the EX a lot for what it was, when i checked it out.  But it was definitely too soft for my tastes.

The offsets look all wrong on that G35.  Definitely somebody who watched too much pimp my ride, lol.

And the 18's on the FX...  My friend has one with those rims, They're pretty bad.

Of course, I forgot the Maxima pictures.  Here's some real world pictures:

Not for me, but I think it's interesting.  It show something about Nissan's future design directions. 

IMHO, it's much better looking than say, an Accord.  It's very well finished, panel gaps are great, looks more expensive that it really is (not that it is cheap though).

Yeah, the 18's did not look that good in person.

You're right about the offsets, it looks like the car has a shorter track in the rear than at the front!  How undrivable is that?  LOL   Grin

I like the Maxima a lot.  The biggest problem is its as expensive as the G and nowhere near as fun to drive.  With the Altima progressively growing and RWD cars becoming more prominent at the $30k+ price point, the market for the Maxima is shrinking, especially when its marketed as the 4DSC, 4 door sports car.

I'd never buy a FWD V6 Maxima with CVT when for similar money I could get a RWD V8 Pontiac G8 GT with the 6 speed auto.

Nice collection of pics. I like the Maxima personally (in person) too. It takes a bit of getting used to. The LED pattern in the rear-tails is nice at night. Same for the FX.
