Re: NAIAS 08: Nissan Forum Concept

i like it. it's funny how we all want something that's unique, to get away from the cookie cutter cars, and when people finally get it, they hate it. it's too wierd or something. it's a heck of a lot better looking than any other minivan, and it absolutely slays the boredom that is the Sienna and the cargovan-esque stylings of the Caravan/T&C vans. once again Nissan throws something out there that is totally different and it's just too much for people to handle.

Re: NAIAS 08: Nissan Forum Concept

It's interesting. There are parts I like, Parts I don't. I do like it better than the current quest however.

Re: NAIAS 08: Nissan Forum Concept

It looks like something out of a '70s sci-fi movie and some kind of sun room in an ultra modern estate. Switch on the Hi-Fi and cue the Logan's Run soundtrack of beeps and electronic noise.

Or... The Romans called. They want their forum back.

Re: NAIAS 08: Nissan Forum Concept

Given the interior, it looks like something one of 007's enemies would drive.....

Re: NAIAS 08: Nissan Forum Concept

I actually like it!! The only thing I dont really like is how the back glass goes straight down, if it had a small countour or sweep back instead of strait down it would be perfect. The interior is really cool also, the wood grain looks top notch IMO, not all fake and plasticy. I would totally drive one!

Really?? I think the wood grain looks like a horrible 70s throwback veneer. I'm really bugged by how the grain doesn't line up at the bottom.

Re: NAIAS 08: Nissan Forum Concept

Even in a concept, they can't get this right??

Concept cars are far from perfect. They're usually thrown together just minutes before their official reveal.
