2007 Nissan Altima
Great exterior I think, Interior is alright, but I like the current Altima's interior better.

Edmunds: Long-Term Test: 2006 Mitsu Eclipse GT
Now that's just going too far. The Aztek is far uglier. However I think I must retract one of my earlier statements about it being the ugliest vehicle in recent history in America. This folks, is: I hate that thing somethin' fierce! (but I think the current gen one looks great)

SATURN REVEALS SKY REDLINE
I dunno, I was really hoping Chrysler would unveil it's midsizers at the same time Saturn and Nissan did, but I guess not

SATURN AURA RADIATES STYLE, REFINEMENT
The Sky at least has the same stereo head unit, the Outlook without the Nav system probably does too. No, it makes the outline of the stereo head look much less noticeable when it's all gloss than the flat black plastic. It creates a pretty good illusion that it's integrated.

2 words: Buick Lucerne It's basically the same car, and better looking anyway- SATURN AURA RADIATES STYLE, REFINEMENT
You know, you're right! With the piano black trim it looks totally integrated...HEAR THAT GM?!- SATURN REVEALS SKY REDLINE
My point. By deffinition, a rim is the edge, not the actual wheel but part of it. The wheel is the entire assembly, the rim is the outer part of it. The spokes that connect to the central axis are part of the wheel, connected to the rim. The contruct as a whole is a wheel. A professional car care book or manual will not say "rim and tire maintainance" it will say "wheel and tire maintainance" Or something to that degree. It will never refer to the wheels as rims. Y'know...you'd think this sort of arguement would be coming from an old guy who is irritated by the use of teh word rim by pop-culture. But, I just turned 20 at the end of March Slangs like this just bug me, lol- Take THAT Oil Companies
hah just yesterday I pulled 2 old bikes out of my basement to see if they still worked. The newer one neeeded air and a front brake, which I fixed, but the back wheels is bent...just enough to notice at higher speed, my friend says it bothered him going downhill. My otherbike is one I rebuilt myself, cuz when I got it years ago it was a particail bike. Then an idiot friend got his peddle jamed in my back hweel and messed up the shifter. Years later I think I finally fixed it though. I may get a new wheel for the other bike, stick it in my Shadow, and bring it to campus- Word Association
I'm with sorry couldn't help it- SATURN AURA RADIATES STYLE, REFINEMENT
Well said, stick some 5-spokes on it.- SATURN REVEALS SKY REDLINE
Simply because of urban culture. Which may seem fine except, like so much slang these days...is a total miss use of the word. Wheel (noun): 1: disk or circular frame capable of turning on a central axis. 2: device of which is the main part of a wheel. Rim (noun): edge esp. of something curved. This is probably a tired and stupid arguement, but I just can't help it. The "rim" of a wheel is the outer edge of said wheel. Bicycle, motorcycle, car, plane, snowblower, it's the same prinicple. A wheel is a wheel and a rim is the outer edge of it. This is sorta like saying "that's the sh1t!" except yeah... to most normal people refering to something as a piece of steaming poo is not a compliment. *sigh*- SATURN AURA RADIATES STYLE, REFINEMENT
lol my girlfriend sometimes does that...- 2007 SATURN VUE GREEN LINE HYBRID DELIVERS
I still think the Red Line looks better.- SATURN AURA RADIATES STYLE, REFINEMENT
Lol that's not the "proper" way to hold a steering wheel anyway. Shame Shame- Car Themed Restaurant
lol "Meal on Wheels" is the name of a local charity group in my area for the poor.... Also I ment "CAR" not "CR" typo... I was thinking of Cheers and Gears...cuz it just sounds cool, just didn't know if I should/could use it or not. SO does Camshaft's lol, i'd be like an all grease menu...no veggies lol XD- Jeep Compass
Yeah, I think the Patriot looks pretty good, though I wonder why they didn't call it "Cherokee"?- SATURN AURA RADIATES STYLE, REFINEMENT
What's wrong with the steering wheel? It's the nicest one GM's got. Looks far better than what's in the Malibu or G6 sedan. If by having the concept you mean simply the bumper? No, the bumper on the concept was a different shape. I doubt they'll feature a manual in the Red Line. Probably paddle shifters like what we see now and the 6-speed tuned more aggressively.- SATURN AURA RADIATES STYLE, REFINEMENT
You're right, the wheels make a big difference, I'm surprised by how much it improves the car. A petition should be started to have GM change the wheel design for the Aura, and send this pic as proof positive. - NYIAS: GM Debuts new FWD 6-Speed Auto
