2004 Sentra SE-R = wtf?!?!?!?........

i just found some pics of the 2004 se-r, i dont really know the specs, but looking at the pics, its quite obvious what was changed.

3
4
5
6

the interior looks nice, and so do the rims and brembo's, but that front is not as agressive looking as last years se-r. what do you think?

I think the interior is about the same, except the steering wheels cover. I also like last year front bumper too, more agressive. This one looks like altima front, still need to fix the rear. Other than that everything is nice. Wonder if they improve the engine?

nissan is making a very wrong move with their front grills.
ie. nissan murano and of course the 2004 SE-R

the front pic reminds me of the 2003 Cavalier.

that car is sooooooo ugly... big thumbs down. I dont deny it has some power, not enough for me to want to drive it though. I think there needs to be a balance between power/gas milage/looks... and that looks awful IMHO

lets see, the taillights look much better than the 03's, the rims r uglier than the 03's, the front grill def needs to go, mad ugly, looks like the grill of the 2004 maxima, i like how the hood is shaped where there are the two creases coming down, the headlights r alight, and the front bumper looks like a current sentra gxe bumper kind of, not sporty at all, and the new guages dont look as sporty as the 03 ones... at least i can be jealous of people with se-r's anymore casue they r fugly

Why can't they make the rear look better. I can't count how many times I went and looked at a white spec v when car shopping. I just couldn't stand the rear of the car. Yea, I like the civic better...Anyhow, I agonized for about a month trying to convince myself I could get over that rear...My sedan's is ugle too, but I don't think quite as ugly..

The front of prior model was my favorite part of the whole car. It looks too old-lady like now.

The new front end would look as a nice refresh on the regular sentra but for the se-r definitely took the sporty look out of the car.

The new tail lamps are nice though. I still do not like the flat butt of the car but it looks nice.

I don't know....

I find it cheap looking...their maxima and altima and Z350 are way better looking!!

don't you guys think civic is much better looking then sentra?

sedan civic can look really high class (FERIO ASIA) and civic coupe is nice too...
