That front end looks too much like an Altima. One thing that keeps me from considering the M is that it has aluminum door panels. My parents' Mercury Grand Marquis has aluminum hood and trunk lid. I just hate how flimsy aluminum feels on a car.

Lots of times those dealerships buy those cars and use them to compare them against their model. I know from a friend of mine who is a sales guy at Lexus of Tampa Bay, that when a competeing car manufacturer releases a car that directly affects their market share, they usually go buy one stack them up against each other, and then sell it. if you ever go to the used side of Lexus of Tampa Bay, just look around they always have the newest models of competing manufacturers. Its pretty funny some times, because the lot is full of cars that arent Lexus. but it makes sense if you think about it, because then it looks like people are buying those cars and trading them in with 3000 miles for a new Lexus.
He may of been shocked by the gas mileage and with the increasing prices decided to get something more fuel efficient. People on Fresh Alloy love the M but are really dissapointed with the poor gas mileage even when taking it easy. There maybe other reasons like just not being able to afford it, seeing something else they liked, or they just were not satisfied with it. You take a hell of a hit on the wallet when you sell cars just after you bought them.

I've seen 2 M45's in traffic lately. I like them. Yes they have weak angles but I like them. Can't wait to see one with aftermarket wheels.
