Message	that everything kinda looks like it. The 350 is an aggressive looking maxima coupe, and the maxima is a beefed up altima. Either way I'm more interested in the advancement of the technology. Toyota and Honda are making great strides in hybrid engine technology. I wonder if they are preparing to unleash hybrid performance engines, leaving Nissan to play catchup. Or is Nissan tired of taking the position of innovator, and are they now just waiting to rip off the tech after it has been developed. The Supra Z business startegy will reproduce itslef as an example of industrial conspiracy theory. I need to stop drinking coffee. Thanks for reading. :Just some food for thought even if it is only hump day junk food. The Z32 is one of the serious Japanese performance cars that is revered by owners of four-cylinder front-drivers, and one way that opinions on cars will always fall is that looking "cool" is nowhere near as good as looking -niiiccceee-.
