^^^^you are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT^^^^^ The P5 was just about styled to perfection. It's wimpy motor kept it out of superstardom. I think the 3 hatch is overall a better car, but something was lost in the translation. A certain fun to drive aspect, a certain tossability, and it does not even come CLOSE to looking as good as the P5 did. My dream wagon/hatch is the P5 body with the MS3 Motor and suspension setup....NIRVANA!!!!

Frumpy little bastard... That must be the new thing. All new cars have to have that up-in-the-air ass and little wheel wells. Plus, there's too much car above the wheel wells. There's nothing even remotely "sleek" about it...
And this is the best they could come up with?
This thing is an abomination to the auto gods! The reason I'm so completely flabbergasted about this hunk of automotive junk is that I used to HATE selling sentras when I was a salesman. I would struggle to find good things to say about them. We heard a restyle was coming and now this....
Luckily I'm not a car salesman anymore so I don't have to try to make this atrocity look good.

Nissan has totally lost touch with the young crowd, sentra wise. 
good call on the baby maxima.... i find the maxima to be one of the porkiest cars around... whenever i see someone driving one I'm like... dude! for like a grand more you could've go a TL! those cars are basically the same in many respects.... but the acura looks 1000x better.
my 2nd car was a 92 se-r..... loved that freakin thing! it only had 140hp but, for the time, it seemed pretty quick. what would you say that's the equivalent of now? maybe 200? But I digress... If Nissan had any interest in bringing the marque back to it's storied past, they'd bring out a coupe version. sure.. they'd have stiff competiton from the Si but so what? Nissan should have enough balls to take em on!
this SE-R continues to be an enigma to me.... I mean, when it came back out in 2002 it looked pretty good. it had some funky guages along with those two tone seats.... and the front looked sort've like a skyline. what happened to all of that? I was at a nissan dealership the other day and sat in an se-r and was like.. wtf is this s***? boooooooooring
Imagine a modern day version of the early 90's SE-R... Keep it under 2800lbs, 2 doors and at least 220hp... that would be a fun ride.
