Just read the above overview of the 2004 Nissan Quest. The nose of a Maxima with the butt of... god knows what, and a confused midsection. But Im sure its a heck of a lot of fun to drive.

Wow...what a turd. Do people actually want cars that look like that?

Despite what they say in the article, I'd still be embarrassed to drive it.

If I ever have to buy a minivan, I'll be sure to chop off my testicles and donate them to someone who still needs some.

Personally, I think the Chrysler Town & Country is the classiest minivan on the road. Minivans just arent supposed to be edgy, and the new Quest is an example of why.

Speaking of gauges, I completely enjoy the 2004 Maxima with the exception of the hollow-feeling interior, torque steer, and that funky motorcycle-type instrument cluster. Everything about the car screams luxury-sport until you look down at that out of place pod.

I love the new Quest. . ten times better than that ugly Ford assembled POS we had.

BTW... very similar styling to a Renault minivan... hmmm wonder why. . :D

I agree. . that would be my very first choice in minivans.
