we jsut drove the 4 cylinder and v6 ex today and oh my god. the 4 cylinder is only 160hp but it s so smooth and quiet and get this... QUICK. the v6 is jsut amazing it does not feel like a honda anymore it feels like a bmw or something. even the interior is incredible. I dont like the rear lights so i sort of assumed the rest of the car sucked, but wow, jsut go drive one and youll see... im choosing the v6ex over the maxima now jsut for overall ride and feel. not to mention the quality differences...
