Shades of Flex from the rear. :-\

CVT transmission though. :hurl:

Either the wheels are tiny on that one, otherwise it looks massive

The body work makes the rear wheels appear smaller than the fronts.   :shake:

Looks like a lot of the vans you see in Asia, perhaps it's a design originally geared to overseas and brought over here

 So many have called the new honda odyssey's styling questionable. Is this worse? I think so

While this is certainly polarizing at first glance, it doesn't look disjointed like the currernt Odyssey.  If I had to choose based on exterior looks alone, I'd take this Quest over the Odyssey any day.   ;D

I don't mind the exterior, though I like the Odyssey better (I know I'm in the minority with the new Odyssey, but I love its exterior).

The Quest's interior, though, is remarkable.  More Infiniti than Nissan; more executive shuttle than family hauler:

The previous Quest was those things for the most part... it failed miserably. Remains to be seen if this version will fare any better.

Or is that a George Bush kind of 'Mission accomplished'?  ;D

Well its not a particularly difficult mission to accomplish so I suppose the competitors did it slightly better. :P

(Then again wasn't the previous era of Nissan interiors pretty shady? This 2011 model looks more nouveau-Infiniti as Mitlov said which is a definite compliment)

But the GWB thing would be appropriate too. :P

The more I look at it I find it very classy, can't wait to see in the flesh.  No one can bash Nissan interiors anymore, across the board they are some of the best out there.  When I look at my Juke, even if it's all hard stuff, it has a decent texture.  The glove door has an even gap all around, so many companies out there seem to not care about that detail, which to me reflects poorly

That has to be the worst interior ever put in a vehicle, both design-wise and quality of materials wise! It's horrible through and through! That's good news for the new Quest... it can only be better!
