^Nissan is pure genius. only manufacturer that can think outta the box and come up with new styles and designs. as well as new powerplants. its like a concept car IRL. (what i mean is that they didnt make it look plain and boring.) ---

to each their own, but i think it’s ugly as fuck. i really don’t like most new cars today though. i like older, smaller, boxy looking cars. as for new style, yeah, but headlight placement is hideous. ---

I don’t like the way it looks… but I _love_ the fact that carmakers continue to have massive, engorged brass balls and build these insane limited-edition cars. 480 AWD horsepower, in a package the size of my right shoe. > [@donkeyballs69](#): > > If the price is reasonable i’m getting one! lol, I doubt anything about this car will be reasonable ---

I actually like it a lot, but I think they went too far. If it were priced close to $20k and was targeted against cars like the Cobalt SS or Mazdaspeed3 it’d probably be a winner. As it is it’s probably just a badass marketing gimmick. ---

Lady friend owns a Juke. I’ve put some miles on it, AWD is nice for the winter and CVT works well. Has a few quirks I’m not thrilled about (when coming to a stop at about 5mph the cvt puts itself in neutral causing less drag on draivetrain and altering stoping distance) Mileage isn’t as good as expected - avg. about 25mpg overall and she drive it a little hard. I would love to wake it up with a tune/coils/intake. I feel like a nice tune would make a world of difference for it. I also love the looks of it… ---

This is the kind of stuff i wanna do for a living. My buddy who worked for Chrysler in the SRT division did a lot of these kind of things. The SRT8 Nitro comes to mind. Also a rumor of a rear engine RWD Neon from back in the day. Also the GM performance parts guy bring a truck/tahoe out to autocross that dominates. A lot of these companies let guys have pet projects that they do in their spare time with company parts. I think it helps with moral and thinking outside the box.
