YACT: What's up with the new Nissans?

Is Nissan spiking the water in their design shops with peyote? Their new vehicles ESPECIALLY the Quest just look awful...
 
Don't forget the "tooth." What a great design idea.

LIES! The new Nissan lineup is glorious and has won every design award bestowed to motor vehicles throughout the Free World, as well as eighteen horse shows and three beauty pageants. You and the infidels will crumble like dirt before the might hooves of the Nissanic era!
 
The Quest is so bad the Nissan website only shows interior photos...
The Maxima has the dumbest looking sunroof EVER!
350Z - Love it or hate it - I am not in the love it category....
 
Yeah, the van is horrendous.

The Maxima looks good, but the front can use some work. The newer Altimas are very nice. The 350z is nice as well (though, I do like the 300zx better).

I don't remember what the new Sentras look like, and could careless about the trucks.
 
I like the Quest myself. Definitely the best looking Minivan in a field of BORING design.

ahhahahahaha 😀
 
The worst offenders are the Quest, Maxima, and revised Sentra. The Armada isn't great either.

The '05 Altima looks very good (even on the inside!), and I actually like the Murano. The Xterra's plasticky up front but overall a good-looking vehicle IMO. I think the 350Z is distinctive in a good way, and the other new trucks (Titan & upcoming Frontier and Pathfinder) look good too.

There are few mainstream car companies that don't have at least a few ugly cars in their lineup, though. The big 3, Toyota, Honda, Mitsubishi, etc. all have a few design lemons or more in their lineup. Mazda probably comes closest to having an entire lineup of vehicles that look good.
 
Armada looks awesome I think.... but the van is absolutely horrible

both the Toyota van and the Nissan look like ass.

Those aren't new. I agree those look good.

The stuff sitting on Nissan lots these days is just hideous!!
 
you're kidding right?

i think the current nissan lineup is great. i love the new maxima, the altima and sentra are good-- even the murano is a good looking car. Can't forget about the 350... drool.

The quest really looks fine in my opinion - i think that toyota copied a lot of the quest's design elements with thier new sienna.

nissan has been on a role with all thier cars for the past 4 years-- nothing but winners.
 
I like most of the new lineup, with exception to the Quest, which should be taken out back and beaten with a pretty stick until it's not so fuggin ugly. Awful car on the eye. Makes a man's eyes bleed and fall out. The specv looks good, but the normal sentras are bland and boring.

The altima looks good but I'm tiring of its plasticy crap look.

I like the new maximas a lot

Murano is decent (nothing on the fx series infiniti, of course).

The titan is good (for a truck, but who cares about trucks). The armada is pretty hot 🙂
 
As a card carying nissan fanboy, i almost feel bad saying this--- but i also think that Mazda has been on a role lately with the RX8, mazda6 and 3 all being increadibly good looking cars.
 
I'm sort of ambivalent on the cars. The Maxima is growing on me a little, but it looks a bit bloated and less sleek now (and the tooth goes without saying.) The Sentra is ok. The '05 Altima actually looks like it'll be nice. None of them are really ugly, just not overly impressive. I think Mazda far and away has the best looking mainstream cars out there right now. They just look more sleek and sporty - everybody else seems to be going for chunky, hard lines right now and it makes Mazda standout all the more IMO.

I LOVE the looks of the new and upcoming Nissan trucks though. The '05 Frontiers are going to be VERY nice judging by what I've seen (very similar to the Colorado actually, which is a great looking truck IMO.) And the Armada and Titan look very nice as well. I used to like the F150s the most looks-wise, but the most recent design is just too squared off.
