    With or without the headlight change, the new Maxima is the best looking sedan on the road right now IMO.

    The more I see the lights on the Maxima the more I like them.

    Overall, I like the Maxima more now than when I first saw it, so it might just be a softening to the overall car. Nissan did a fine job with this car.

    nz holden fan, it is really easy to post pics in your post. do a copy command of your url of the image address (some photohosting sites actually do the 'copy for you)

    click on the little 'mountain' pic right above your message typing window.
    a screen will pop down, insert your url into there by hitting paste command. make sure you don't have 'http//:' twice, it is a common prob.

    camarofreak, your photoshopping is excellent. i like what you did to the headlights.

    i was following a black 09 maxima for a few miles at night in the city a few days ago.

    it has a killer stance, and the taillights at night are freakn beautiful. kudos to the designers.
    the whole back end is almost as sexy as .... uh uh

    I really like it also but I'm afraid the boomerang headlights will become the new fender vents showing up on everything.

    ** OFF TOPIC ALERT! **

    The Maxima looks a thousand times better the way you've chopped it. Excellent work.


    A note to all design contest participants - if I pound you with penalties or point out that you can't enter one of your designs, please do not think that this is a personal bash on you as a designer. I am merely enforcing the rules that I have set down.
