Much better design. Glad to see that they got rid of those hideous bugged out eyes.

The first picture I saw was of the front fascia only, and it didn't look impressive to me.  However, I like the overall look of the vehicle now that I've seen a full body shot.
Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction, and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.

Nissan's pricing has put some pressure in the segment.  I think the 2014 models are priced about the same, maybe even a bit lower than they were in 2004!

Nice to see that they dropped the 4-banger.  I'm a fan of small engines, but in reality it didn't offer much in this chassis.

With the revised suspension set up I wonder how much the driving experience has improved ? My previous 2004 Highlander offered little steering feedback.

I may take one for a test drive.

Nissan's pricing has put some pressure in the segment. 

The new Pathfinder pricing certainly countered the tide of big-CUV price bloat.  But the Santa Fe XL probably exerts just as much sales (and pricing) pressure on Toyota.  Long live competition in the marketplace!

It will be interesting to see Honda's pricing on the new Pilot, I expect them to hold the line on pricing as well.

Interesting...  They now can offer an 8 seater which makes them the only one in the class.  I await to hear from reviewers of how useful/comfortable the 3rd row is with 3 people sitting back there, as well as easy of entry & exit, and how much useful cargo space there really is with the 3 rows up.
