That is a giant tailight, or atleast from that angle.

And they're going to sell that new Maxima how?
The G35 also better be stepping up, though the rear-drive chassis earns major bonus points.

Its a nice refresh of the former Altima (ok I know its an all new design). Looking at the rear 3/4 view, I think to myself this is how the Pontiac G6 was meant to look (instead of the ugly vehicle it became) and how GM is trying to style the upcoming Saturn Aura.

Looks like they're getting styling cues from the Buick design team.

Looks like a nice refresh. From the angle shown, its proportions remind me of the "L-Finesse" designs from Lexus and Toyota (particularly the new GS). But there are hints of G35 and M45 in there, too.
Let's hope they've put as much work into the steering. Every Altima I've driven, even the SE-R, has felt numb and overboosted at the wheel. Their manual shifters are pretty floppy, too. If all that's been fixed, this car will give Honda and Toyota a very hard time.

Uh Casey, sorry bud, your scorecard has a misprint. It should be:
Camry: 0
Altima: 1
The basic 2006 Altima looks lightyears sportier than a 2007 Camry SE! The 2007 will only further that...

Damn sexy!

That car is just as ugly as the current Altima

Yay for oversteer! 250+ hp for the front wheels destroys handling. Major pet peeve of mine in this segment. FWD blows.

Looks like bits and pieces of the Maxima, G35 and Altima all rolled into one aggresive design. Maybe Toyota is going to have to rethink their new Vanilla Camry.
Altima: 1
Camry: 0

Like the looks, but don't care for Nissan interiors and bad ergonomics. (Yeah, I'm talking about the old Altima on that last one.)

"Every Altima I've driven, even the SE-R, has felt numb and overboosted at the wheel."
True, but then it's exactly the same story for every new Accord and Camry I've driven. Seems to be the industry norm in Japan these days.

If the Renault Altima is so much better looking than the Toyota Camry, why isn't it selling better than the Camry? If you want to say the Ford 6 is better looking than the Toyota Camry then I'll accept that, but not the Renault Altima.

I have to see more pics, it does look sexy though. I'll wait to see what the SE-R will look like (if they make one). Once my Alti gets payed off next year I'll definitely look into buying one. That'll be a plus too because I'll have research on all the gripes before buying it, unlike me jumping into the first model year and envying all the later year tweeks everyone else got. Damn SE-R sportier than thou 2004/5 models.
Altima: 3
Camry: 0

That's it? Hardly a change. Nissan will still be behind Accord & Camry.
