I went and looked at a CC. 6 spd manual, 4WD. It felt huge inside, very spacious, almost too much so for me (I like more of a "cockpit" feel to the driving experince). I'm 6'. Rear seats were very usable and roomy as well. Best part is they fold up agaisnt the rear wall completely. Only gripe about the interior is the very hard plastic everywhere. I'm sure it will cleanup well, but just seems so hard, I'd go so far as to say it felt like the Mazda 3 I also recently drove. The Frontier is much better equipped of course and feels nicer, but that plastic feeling left me a little disappointed.
The new engine I felt was good, much better than the old 3.3, but I expected a real rocket with all that HP. My PF seat- of- the- pants dyno seems faster with a bit less HP. A little noisy too. But after all, it is still a truck. I aslo didn't get to really row it thru the gears. Still, it felt good, shifted nice, little body roll, confidence inspring driving.
