Could this be the new Altima?

Scroll down to the section called Nissan XVL. I looked at this pic and the flash intro on Nissan site, the shape seems fairly close. Although they talk about a 260hp engine but with tough California emissions, I would assume it would be tuned down to 240hp. Sounds interesting though......damn I can't wait till April 11th! I wanted an SE-R but now I think I want the Altima SE. http://forums.freshalloy.com/forum/images/icons/smile.gif

Welllll thats really the Infinti XVL, but according to whats known about the new Altima, its shape will be very close to the XVL, therefore in a way, your right.. that could be the Altima! http://forums.freshalloy.com/forum/images/icons/wink.gif

Its going to be a rwd Infiniti sedan set to take on Lexus IS, Audi A4 and BMW 3 series crowd.

Thats the XVL (as mentioned). Look at the S2000 4 door though, that thing is reeeeeeaaallllllyyy nice. When will Infiniti debut the production XVL? The wait is killing me!!!!

Ok, I guess if you take the concept are and change the front end and back end, it would be very close.
Are they going to do like Honda and Acura, use the same frame and body but rework it? I find the new Civic and Acura 1.7EL too close in look. I hope Nissan keeps their cars a litte more apart.
I must say....I used to be a tried and true Honda fan but after driving my girlfriend's Sentra SE Sport Package (because someone stole my Civic SiR), most of my car choices are Nissan's now. However I just removed the Maxima SE off my list after trying it last night, too much car for me. I prefer smaller road feeling cars but the car is impressive.
