The new Camry just came out, and the Accord and 6 replacements will follow suit. So who would want an old Nissan? Maybe a third of its value is gone after the first owner (if any) takes it out of the showroom. There's also nothing special. It's got Nissan ASEAN's usual anonymous design and a spartan dash, certainly not something that would turn a customer from what Toyota and Honda (even in the current Accord) have to offer.

The Fuga, on the other hand, is the Infiniti M35/45 in the U.S. It's actually beating the 5-Series in some comparison tests like in Car & Driver and Consumer Reports. Its performance is almost the same, reliability way better, and probably more luxury for less.

Sir MBT, Kung ang Teana ay twin brother niya ang Nissan Maxima, then it will be a full size sedan instead of midsize? I remember commenting on another thread on how the Teana looks like the Infiniti G series and someone replied back that it is actually sized with the M series. * sir, bakit ang title ay may "well, sort of" maybe I missed something after reading your post. Thanks

a blown proportion Sentra on the outside. however, the interior looks subdued enough.

Akala ko instruments ng Picanto, wala ding temperature gauge, eh! Sa halaga ba namang Php1.8m hindi pa nila malagyan ng disenteng temp gauge iyan? hehehe.

Btw, on sale ang current Cefiro. Php1.399M

It was first launched in Japan in 2003 and in most export markets in 2004.
So that would be about 3.5 years old for the JDM version and around 2 years old for the export markets.
Much better than the 8 year old Cefiro they're selling here.
