Out of all the nissan models, I really like the Juke based on its design. I don't own one yet but I've seen one and it appealed to me. Those of you in this forum, what did you like about juke?

Juke seems to be a love-hate kinda vehicle. I personally don't care for it while others I know think it's awesome.

I dont actually love or hate it. If the front end was a little less goofy/awkward looking, I'd probably love it. The looks is the only thing unappealing to me.

I see our different tastes in design, and yeah I know some of my friends don't like the Juke though, I'm not forcing anyone to like it. Thanks for your opinion :)

I kinda like its odd shape. However I don't get the turbo'd 1.6L putting out a bit of a ho-hum 188 hp, when they could have reused some version of the 175HP QR25 2.5L engine and gotten rid of the turbo complication. Then again, I suppose for gearheads, upping the boost on the turbo would gain more HP cheaper than trying to add power to the non-turbo 2.5 engine.

Or perhaps there is fuel efficiency to be gained from the 1.6L turbo vs a standard 2.5L engine, given the near equal power output? Hmm....

Ya know, it's styling is a tad bit remminicent of the Isuzu Vehicross.

I didn't like those when they came out, but I grew to like them over time. The Juke is unique, though. I kinda dig it.

Well I've been in a pickle lately about this car. I have a 7month old and come to the conclusion the my wonderful A/C is too small so I've been checking this thing out. I honestly think the front is ugly but like it o_O. Def love the inside, space and the fact that its got eco mode and sport. I can be economic and save some money, have the space and when I'm alone; I can see what kinda ba!!s this thing has with the turbo. Going to my dealer tomorrow to discuss a trade-in.
