So the new Nissan Quest is coming in the next month and although it’s a refaced Nissan El Grand from Japan, the thing that pisses me off is that it was refaced. The El Grand already has an awesome front end and to strip its face from it and give it a terrible makeover doesnt justify doing it. Whoever is responsible for approving that, shame on you. Expect alot of front end swaps cause I know I’ll be doing it.
If you’re wondering why there are hellaflush and fatlace banners in the background, its cause the fine folks at AME and GRACE set up the area at the New Otani like one of our meets. Good Idea.
Compare this to the new quest front end, this one wins by a mile.
Velfire, Previa and El Grand.

Any more of the one the DJ is in?
wish we had vans like this in the states.
Let’s see more of the red truck in the backgroud of the first picture! :O
im actuallyreally digging the split 5 spokes…reminds me of the bimmer 6 rims..
Nissan is doing the face lift because pretty front of the El Grand does not meet US pedestrian crash standards. If ur looking for someone to blame its the NHTSA. Not that Nissan couldn’t do a better job with the Quest but we get screwed out of all the good cars and good versions/engines of cars we already get. Welcome to America
uhh. the quest design is still fugly. the nhtsa didnt design the front end, nissan did.
pretty cool looking vans
I made a similar response a few months ago when u posted the El Grande… Arcenal you might as well import one from Japan, because the rear end seems to be different as well… the only thing is the electronics, like the navigation and such.
Dont mind the rear. It’s the front of the elgrand that makes it cool. Im sure someone would want the front end of a quest in japan. Do the old switcharoo..
I’ve always been a fan of the VIP van scene. Those are pretty fricken sick! I remember back in the day when we use to drop chevy astros on 20s.
