Default nissan intima concept

http://www.autoblog.com/photos/nissa...oncept/432614/

if they build this thing, and it looks even 80% close to this concept, it will kill Avalon and upcoming Genesis. Wouldnt be surprised if its made into next generation maxima.

super

The Maxima is the direct competitor to the Avalon and Genesis, both of which were redesigned in 2004, and will be due for a redesing in 2010.

If the Intima/Maxima concept comes by 2010, I would expect a nice rivalry between the three.

nissan destroyed the maxima line....it has hardly any panache now vs. the altima....this intima concept looks like a hacked avalon front end, with a CLS profile, and grafted teana c-pillar and back styling....hideous imho.

Looks like a big heavy *** Buick with sleek lines. Looks like *** to me. I think the Genesis is still safe.

Ugh... looks like the Exeleros concept.

I like the interior door handle though and the cool sliding door compartment with that handbag and some other stuff in that other pic lol. The blue hue would probably match better with grey I think.
