So we got a Nissan Altima V6 Coupe
By Mashfique Hussain Chowdhury
We have a familiar car over here, but only from the driver’s seat. The cabin is shared with the Altima sedan, with the exception of an actual handbrake replacing the sedan’s parking foot-brake and three front cup-holders, so Coupe buyers only have two cup-holders up front. Other differences include cramped rear legroom, a manual passenger seat for quick rear access, possibly less headroom, and very interesting exterior styling, even if a bit bloated-looking.
A five-minute initial drive reveals the same flaws that affected the Altima sedan, namely dead-soft steering and pedal feel, so driving it isn’t as engaging as an Accord Coupe. It remains to be seen if handling is better than the Altima sedan.

somehow it feels as if the spoiler is missing….probably needs one atleast for the looks.

I feel the sedan looks better. these tail lights dont match the design and just spoil it.

Mash, do you have plans to test the new maz6?

Lots of people asked for MAzda 6. But Mazda does not give out cars.
