lmao well I was THIS close to buying th bugatti, but I just couldn't stand the lack of rearview viewing space! I just couldn't see behind me!


edit: on the note of the bugatti, my dad and I came to the conclusion why none of us will ever see a bugatti on the road, or if you do, it's literally about the odds of winning the powerball, if you're curious ask

Methinks we should keep an eye on the up-coming press releases that coincide with the New York Auto Show, which runs April 14-23
(Rumor has it the "production level" Aura should be making an appearance as well)

Actually it is not a modified Maxima,2 completely diff cars...yes they do share parts but size styling performance are diff. I think you meant more of a comparison like Nissan Titan and the QX45 i think its called or Ford Explorer and Lincoln Aviator. Where essentially its the same vehicle just different badge an styling cues!
How much $ would this Sky/Solstice GXP run

Completly different? No, not quite... same chassis, frame, suspension, engine... about the only thing that's different, are the body panles, and the tranny. Do you forget what they look like when they stopped using the original Altima chassis in favor of the Maxima platform? Either way, all companies do it, and do it alot.

Sky pricing, is $21-$22k without the turbo, 25-26 with... maybe... not sure yet...

Hmm... it appears the Altima is a bit different than I thought... after some checking it does seem they share less than I though. I should know better than to tell someone that owns the car, about the car...

I have a question about the Aura, maybe in the wrong post but were talking about future redline vehicles. I've heard that they may make an Aura Redline. I don't know where i heard it, maybe in a dream but im thinking, its a sedan with an optional V8...LS1?
