Well I can't say much about the new ones, but my good friend has an older Altima, and it seems like a pretty good car. He's had it for a long time and I don't think he's had much trouble with it. If I remember correctly, the new Nissans have taillights that look very strange to me. Too exposed. But if that's what you are into.I of course would recommend the Vibe. Good luck with your decision!

I have a Maxima, and it is fantastic. Very reliable, and a ton more fun to drive than the Vibe - sorry folks, but horsepower rules.

If I wanted horsepower, I'd buy a Corvette. I drive the Vibe for fuel economy.

I get 28 highway with the Maxima and 32 with the Vibe - both at the same speed.

The new Altima is hot! I love the way they look. And the new coupes with the 270hp V6 are slick! I would take one over an Accord Coupe at the moment. I have always liked the new Altima since the last gen came out, the new one is a big improvement over a good design.I just think that Nissan is not sure what to do with the Maxima as it is moving so upscale it is moving into G35 territory. I guess it's comparable to a Toyota Avalon but more performance oriented.
