I saw the Nissan Maxima is being pulled - maybe to send us a Skyline?  I am wrong - Nissan can build cool E36 M3.

Isn't the Skyline the Infiniti Q50 and Q60?

Please don't. I don't wanna listen to the berkeleyboys with the "skylines" talking about it's a GTR like the v6 chargers talking about it's faster than a hellcat.

Sad to see the Maxima name go as we had a few back in the day, including a 4DSC. But as it was primarily built for the North American market, can’t say I’m too surprised.

The Skyline is supposedly going to become an EV.  Development of the Skyline sedan has been reported as being halted and instead, Nissan is reportedly developing its next generation of Skyline on the basis of the electric Ariya crossover with its debut planned for 2025. So, another legendary nameplate gets dropped onto an EV CUV.

The maxima died a while ago.  1st when it switched from being made in Japan, 2nd when some absolutely hateful person got their way and a CVT ended up in it.
