I have seen those photos before, but I don't see any difference in the old and new except for maybe the front end is stretched (which makes it ugly imo), and the rear bumper has that "new" black plastic rear diffuser shape instead of the big butt rear bumper of the 04-05. I like the 04-05 alot. it took a while, but it grew to be my favorite mid-size.
Here are some other pics of the 2007 "altima"

I know this site says its the next altima but I argue that point with this

if this is the new maxima, then it has definitely lost its roots, and nissan has now slotted it within the grandma car segment. I guess it will do great killing buicks and lincolns!!!
who knows anymore. They are the same size
