It is going to be badass. I have seen them, but not been able to sit in or drive one yet.

That looks uglier than a Pontiac Aztek.

I actually kinda like that car. What are specs on it I wonder?

Did they forget to put the headlights and then added them at the last minute?I'm not sure about that front...yeah, Pontiac Aztek comes to mind.

I kind of like how the inside looks futuristic, but I'm not a fan of the exterior or the fact that it's 2 door.

Not everybody likes the same things .. that's what makes us dif't. Plenty of people hate the look of the Versa ... buy what you like. If you like the Juke, get it.

Perfect timing for Nissan to step their game up with new vehicle entries (Thanks Toyota for an Epic Fail )

But overall the Juke looks like a solid contender for the mini SUV/Crossover niche..

Here is a nice article from NetCarShow.com http://www.netcarshow.com/nissan/2011-juke/

it looks 4 door??

Went to the sites and checked out more pictures. Yep, it's still homely. I do, however, like that it has the 1.5 diesel option.

"It has a tough solid body to reflect the SUV element, yet is a very sensual car, too, with complex curves and a coupé profile accentuated by the narrow side glass and hidden rear door handles which help give the impression of two rather than four doors."

LOL! I wasn't trying to be a jerk... or force my opinion on anyone. It's just like being a Red Sox fan... I'll tell a Yankees fan that the Yankees Suck! You love red cars. I hate'em. But I'm totally down with your loving your red car! BTW, I'm JohnLocke!

I'm a chick and I like the style. But what the heck is that on either side of the hood above the lights? More lights? Weird....

I think i will keep my V and enjoy it after a few performance mods.... Stillen here i come!!!!

Post by **CraigFL** » Tue Mar 23, 2010 2:42 am

I was actually gonna hold off until the Juke came out so I could buy one, but then my Solara started having MAJOR issues coupled with my declining health so I couldn't wait any longer. But I DO love my V.

Looks a lot like the Volvo C30:

Juke:

Cute car. Not for me. Have kid, need 4 door.

The headlights are the 5" round units, and the ones above are the running and turn signals.

Wait until you see this litlle 4-door in person before you pass too much judgement.

Rob, look at the black portion of the C pillar. You can see a vertical door handle embedded in the pillar. That's a four door.

Post by **robaustin** » Tue Mar 23, 2010 8:20 am

Interesting. It still looks too small though. Then again the Versa looks small from the outside too...

Yep, I love it when people comment on my V being small... until they look inside.

It's actually about the same in terms of roominess as the 2000 Altima I used to have, if not more.

Post by **BlueMango** » Tue Mar 23, 2010 1:24 pm

I think it looks like a curvier Kia Soul

I would probably still buy a Versa, when Its time. But I wouldn't not look at this. I'm considering going to see it when it hits the lot later this year.

Its a funky car, the runners and blinkers on the hood i'm not big on, nor the huge round headlights (reminds me of Jeep). But it wouldn't hurt to look. I looked at the Cube, I think I can look at this too.

The Juke made its debut at the NY auto Show yestreday. The US version brings an MR16 base turbocharged gasoline engine with 180+ HP. All I need to do is find a wrecked one in a year and swap the turbo kit over to the Versa. The 1.8L MR18 should put out 200+hp pretty easy.

If what you say is true and Nissan is in fact bringing it to our N American shores with a turbocharged MR16, it is good news.

Since the Nissan dealer I sell at is fairly small, I don't know if we'll get one or not. I suppose it depends on the supply. I hope we do, I think they look sweet. Hopefully they aren't like the Cube in the respect that a lot of people think it's cool but they don't want to actually purchase one.

I agree, that's a very cool looking car. It might appeal to a female more than a male though? If I had any sense at all, I'd get the leaf but I'm stuck in an apartment and I have no idea how I'd charge it. And, I'm not made of money. Right now I have only a year left on my Versa lease. I'll probably buy it but I signed that lease before all the trouble in auto-land and the residual to buy it is kind of high, over $8,000. I should probably be sensible and just buy the Versa when the lease is over. It has ultra-low-miles, right now after 2 years it's still under 7,000 miles. Yup, I live close to where I work. Dodger Stadium....GO DODGERS !!
