Lets say "IF" Maxima got discontinued for 2002 what alternative will you guys buy instead?
Personally I will go for TL-S as a alternative, how about you guys? images/icons/smile.gif

You think if TL-S offers 6 speed man, 6 speed Max will be able to keep up with it??

Well I am not sure...torque wise I know the Max has 240 lbs. of torque...I have no clue what the TL-S would have. Honda has a pretty good reputation of making good trannies so I think this 6 spd manual will do fine. Now as to if I'd take one of these over a 6 spd Max...I'd go w/the Max for the sheer fact that it has the LSD. I am damn sure the TL-S would not. In the looks category though....it's quite tough...

Nissan already makes an alternative to the Maxima, it's called the Altima SE 3.5. images/icons/smile.gif
And if you can live with a 2 door car, I'd wait for the new Z.

Altima is a good choice if we are just looking for the same performance, but you are loosing a lot of luxury over maxima, so I wouldn't say Altima is a fair alternative. Besides, Alitma is much cheaper in $~~~ images/icons/wink.gif
