Hmm...looks alright.

I like the tail lights. But somehow it looks like a BMW or something. But the more I look at it, it looks like an '02-'06 Altima (from the side)!

Testing out that AWD in the snow perhaps? Looks pretty sick actually. But once the costume comes off i'm sure I won't like it as much

CoolMax - That hood bulge is simply foam blocks under the camo coating. It won't be there when all the camo comes off.

I hope the car is every bit as a sports sedan and if it does not have a 6speed auto like all the other cars in it's class, hopefully the 2nd generation CVT in it will be setup to shift like an auto and not like an oversized jet ski
