It runs from front to back; its a narrow strip of glass. There's a link to a pic in the thread i think.

Here's a pic.
The Skyview roof is a standard feature even on the base Maxima IIRC. It does not open, it's just there to let more light into the cabin.
There is also a normal sunroof available.

It does seem kind of pointless in the Maxima but it's actually pretty cool in the Quest. It makes the back part of the van feel less closed in and cave-like.

Go for the supercharged one But yes, the XTerra does look good IMHO.

LOL!!! it looks like a "landing strip"

the armada is really bad

I personally think that the new Titan truck with the V8 looks great, but that's just me I guess...

Someone here at the school has one, I got to see it first hand in black...Very shiny, and the chrome badges look great against the black surface.

The Maxima has the dumbest looking sunroof EVER!
350Z - Love it or hate it - I am not in the love it category....

holy crap, the maxima looks like it has a mohawk!

 

[Crappopotamus]

the infiniti lineup is really nice looking. the regular nissans however...

murano: okay but it looks like its grinning
maxima: huge rear bumper, and the whole rear looks stupid.
sentra: nothing special, but its got the tooth...

the altima and 350z are the only nice cars. i like the trucks and REAL suvs. the canadian only xterra is nice. pathfinder is also pretty good.

IMHO:

Maxima: Growing on me style wise. Horrendous torque steer. Otherwise a pleasure to drive. Seems bigger and more luxurious inside - compared to my 98.
Pathfinder (not the Armada - haven't driven one yet): Great power, horrible stereo (even the Bose) - I have one.
XTerra: Underpowered Pathfinder (except it's full frame). Lots of plastic.
Frontier: Based on the XTerra - what more needs to be said.
Murano: Just bizarre looking. Would rather have a FX45 (which are weird looking too but at least have the HP to make up for it)
350Z: Underpowered for it's category, looks heavy...
Sentra: Same ol, same ol. Reliable - VSpec is kinda cool if you can get past the seats.
Quest: Outside is bizarre, inside is the ugliest interior i've ever seen.
Titan: Can't wait to drive one. Have high hopes...
