Too bad it will probably stay in Europe (the two demos being built, RHD and LHD) and not hit the States' shores.

Thing has an ugly face. I think this GTR thing is a technique to get more people interested in the Juke. Regardless of that, honestly, I'm starting to like the Juke.

I could care less how ugly people think it is. All I'm hearing is "LightWeight GT-R".

Yes capitalized.

I don't know how much lighter it could be with all the fabrication they're doing.

It'll never be able to handle as well as the GTR itself but it'll be interesting to see how they improve the handling of the Juke to support all that power.

I don't see them adding 900+ lbs, especially considering it was already AWD and they're stripping the interior. In honesty, the only thing preventing it from GT-R handling is the aero and trackwidth/wheelbase. Same wheel/tire package and driveline. It'll probably be just as capable, but pull bias away from high-speed corners and towards tight bends.

I guess we'll out in November.

Agreed, this is the ugliest car Nissan has produced. Yes, it's fast...great...so is a Porsche 959...doesn't make that car any less of a repulsive mess.

My big beef with the Juke is the double sets of lights on the front...the top lights make it look like an abused Pug....the grill seems to be in the wrong place. I do like it lowered with the 2 doors...but it reminds me of the BMW 550GT..which let's be honest is horrible.
