I think I need one of these. Seating for four and exotic-beating performance? YES PLEASE.

That's amazing but I'd rather have the drivetrain in the original package. a lot less money and IMO, much better looking

If I may pick a certain nit, it does not appear to be able to seat four. Hilariously powerful, however.

Every time he says "Juke-R," I feel like he's saying it's a car made for my people.

Not gonna lie, I'd take the Porsche :couch:

+1, it sounds like he's saying Jew Car. At first I thought it was some sort of way of saying that no Jew would buy a [German] Porsche.

For a while as a rebellious and militant Jew in white Catholic suburbia, I swore off Mercedes, BMW, and Volkswagen. I can find legitimate ways to hate each of them, now.

I r confuse. It said it was an "old school 6 speed manual gear selector," but in the hot lap, he's using paddleshifters.

Same here, and I won't even duck behind the couch, but then I've had lifetime love affair with the products rolling out of Zuffenhausen (and to a lesser extent, Pfaffenhausen). Take into account that the Juker is a one-off, handbuilt nearly $600K example of what could be done, the GT2 is an example of what is being done, for nearly less than half the price.

And then there's this to consider...

There is something about seeing a car spinning all four wheels in slow motion that never gets old!

I loveeeeeee the Juke-R! Such a badass little crossover!

The price is ridiculous but it's very limited so it's somewhat understandable.

:yesnod ...and that clip of the R pulling the inside front wheel all the way through that turn is amazing.

The paddles were in the Juke. The RS has the "old school" 6MT.

Pay attention, son. :biggrin:

With the 2012 system underneath the Juke-R will be a better vehicle. 530hp/448-tq takes the 2012 GT-R 0-60 in 2.9 seconds and the 1/4 in 11.1, 0-100 in 7.1 sec.

Still the Juke-R is NOT going to be worth the money they are asking.
