This has probably been discussed before but I haven't seen it until now.

In my opinion it looks great. I like it a lot. The styling reminds me a lot of the minivans you would find over in Japan.

The interior has a slight case of the blands but hey, it's a minivan.

Even if you don't like the styling... you have to admit that it's better looking than its predecessor.

I actually though about test driving one when they come out. I'm not in the market for a minivan, but I'd like the chance to see if it lives up to the hYpe. You're right, it does look a lot better than the previous model.

Love it.

Drop it on some 20" graphite Volks and I'd rock it all day long.

I like it, but IMO I think the predecessor looks better. The new one looks too boxxy (lolmeme). The interior does have a slight case of the blands, but it looks good IMO.

Like the interior.

Look like a mix of the new Murano and Explorer.

I can't believe no one else has ever wrapped the glass cleanly around the d-pillars like that before. It makes a HUGE difference despite being essentially the same shape overall.

As for the interior...I thought Nissan learned their lesson with the 2nd gen Quest. NO ONE WANTS THE SHIFTER NEXT TO THE RADIO CONTROLS. It's in the fuggin' way. WTF ever happened to column shifters? Get that s*** out of the way.
At least the instrument cluster's on the right side of the damn dash this time, though.

:eek:

It wouldn't be a new Nissan if it wasn't grossly overdesigned to be nothing the consumer wants.

That interior is a dealbreaker.

Its definitely an improvement, but like always Honda and Toyota build them well, and Chrysler offers more useful features for less money.
