From what I read at freshalloy.com, the next generation Maximas will be built off the same platform as the next generation Altimas.

"The new Altima will share it's platform with a new even larger Maxima due out in 2004-2005. The new Maxima will be based on stretched wheelbase of the same platform."-- freshalloy.com

This could be purely speculation, but who knows? What's interesting is that they had a pretty good "rough picture" of the main characteristics of the next generation Altimas would be like if you take a look at their archives.

I felt that the next gen's would probably have 180 HP engines a while back when they introduced the current generation Sentras (140 HP?). The 180 seemed to fit nicely between the Sentra's engine and the Maxima's. The current generation Altima's engine seems very underpowered to me.
