Im pretty sure that at Trek Today i read that the nacelles where to be slightly lower than the saucer section but i cant go back and read it again because the article has mysteriously dissapeared from the site. It will probably be back soon.

TVGuide legal issues, from what I can glean online.
And the comments about the nacelle position were just TT slapping itself on the back and saying "we brought you this info and this and this and it was all correct" when in fact it was just the person who posted the story guessing that the nacelles were lower.

As I've had my SNL moment over in the Enterprise forum, I'll now go ahead and state that I find it hard to believe this is the ship. It's an Akira. Yes, yes, blah blah blah, ship histories, and so on. But it's an Akira. I suppose the bottom may look significantly different. But it's an Akira.
Of course, in all this surge of negative emotion, I can remember a year or two or more ago when there seemed to be a large number of fans clamoring for the next show to take place on an Akira, and some of us continually saying that would never happen, because every show gets a new ship. Well. I guess we were wrong.
Now I'm just worried about some of those other fan suggestions of the same era. Type XX phasers? Ultra-quantum torpedos? Ship captains that happen to share the names of particularly eager fans?

The German Star Trek News Site (treknews.de) has the pictures from the TV Guide up and they also set up a comparison between the Enterprise and the Akira. Pretty interesting. I wish I could read German.

This is a thread about a starship. I think it fits in nicely with this forum.
Mr. of Mim, we need to talk. That vein on your forehead is protruding pretty far. If you aren't careful, it'll explode. You need to relax. Drink a couple cases of fine German beer, and then make out a check payable to me for $2050. I'll tell you the address to send it to as soon as your intoxicated, um, er, I mean relaxed.

Oh. I get it. Siegfried and Roy. Ha ha ha. This screen name is not from the Las Vegas weirdos, it's from the hero of Richard Wagner's opera cycle Der Ring des Niblungen and Norse mythology.
