    Only con I found on the new X-terra are the cheapy looking interior,if they go a bit foward offering better trims they'll be on the right path for sure.
    Eh, I'm torn. I've driven the new Xterra, and it has a cavernous interior and much more powerful engine (without FI) compared to the old model. But I agree that the styling isn't as edgy as it once was. The interior is chintzy in either generation, and I was especially bummed to learn that factory navi wasn't an option on any model (all the way up through 2008!). I think the just did a minor body/interior update, but it looks like more of the same to me. Hopefully the next upgrade will strike a better balance and offer more options.

    In the end I turned down a newer Xterra and Wrangler Unlimited for the VX and have never look back!

    Yeah, I just don't like the way the new X looks, period. The squared off wheel wells completely ruined it for me. I also think it looks bulky and awkward. The Xterra always had a small to medium sized look to it, and now it looks BIG and UGLY.

    The years with the round headlights look the best, imo. If I bought another X, it would end up looking something like this - minus the ugly snorkel (I hate snorkels).



    Still, nothing compared to the coolness of the VX.

    First comment on this thread I completely agree with!


    I still think the new FX looks good, but not as good as the last gen.

    I think the Forester is ugly, but the sti is amazing

    The acura is alright

    BMW X6 is awesome

    Last gen Xterra beats the new gen Xterra hands down

    These are a huge fad around here. They may not be as comfy as the FX, but you could go almost anywhere.
