Even the Civics and Scions have these side blinkers. Lexus should've put them on the 06 GS' when they came out with the new body style. At least the 08 GS have them and not any other Lexus. I must say tho, the Lexus side blinkers are the nicest I've seen.

I like. A couple of angles showed a familial resemblance to the G35. I think some lines hit people differently.
I took my son (7 years old) to McDonald's right after test driving the GS. As we walked out, there was a brand new Avalon right outside the door. He said "That's the same car we just drove."
I was surprised. After I spanked him for the insult to the GS... jk
I thought it was neat that while he wasn't familiar with either car and they don't really look alike, he caught some glint of a line that had family resemblance.

I love the 09 Maxima, it attracted my attention at the first glance. The profile is similar to the latest Camry which is a good thing.
Without driving the 09 Maxima, the only thing I don't like is headlight but then it is an easy fix... just tape off that extra part of headlights with a dark film.
The interior is also a big plus, nothing wrong to be Infiniti like. For $35K+, I will buy this stylish car assuming the driving dynamic is still better than the Avalon.

Is it just me or does it look like the front bumper is just one solid integrated piece all the way back to the A-pillars and front doors? The quarter panels appear to have to separation from the bumper. Maybe the seam is just very tiny and we can't see it in the pics but the gap between the hood and bumper/quarter panels looks unnaturally wide.

Looks like nissan and Renault are getting even closer with thier designs..(Tiida and Megane/clio, Note and Modus,etc etc)
this looks like it has some of the lines of a new laguna gt (and i dont know if thats a good thing)
However,many cars look better in person than they do on photographs (can be said for french cars)
note the flattened out nose.. i wonder if they share the same platform??
this renault has got a hot new aws system
