PROS:
-good in the snow (I have driven it in about a 8 inches of snow in the mountains with no problems)
-I haven't had any mechanical issue or anything of the sort at 20k miles.
-fun to drive, fairly quick for what it is
-I have rocksford fosgate speakers that came as an option from the dealer, they sound amazing
-extremely easy car to clean
-CVT, it it funky compared to A/T but it is smooth.
-I get about 32 MPG

CONS:
-I have heard on forums that people have problems with the CVT, but have not experienced any myself
-lag central when you're starting from a stop until about 3k rpms
-I myself do not think the backseat is that small, but I have had a few people complain

Awesome post. Just the type of stuff id like to hear. I did not do any car hunting today but talked to the stealership and arrived at $22,250 on an awd s juke. Ill see how far i can knock the price down before i ever step foot in the door.

I believe it was the R35, not the R34.

idk about the cvt. I own a 08 altima with cvt. reminds me of driving a boat

Well i pulled the trigger. Beat them down to 22k out the door with taxes and licensing. Tried to go lower but the manager said he had to call the regional manager to get approval and the lowest he went with was 22,200. He said if it was not end of quarter there was no way in hell he would let that happen. Since my financing rate is pretty killer i think i came out on top on this one. I guess i beat them down 1k below invoice for my AWD Juke 2013 S model. Basically i got the car around the 19,700 range and all the licensing and taxes put it up right to 22k. I beat the finance manager over the head a bit too - he was sweating bullets! Ill post a follow up in case anyone wants to know how this puppy rides etc.

I'm pretty sure after a limited run of nismo juke. The 6mt awd will be standard.

im about to pull the trigger on a nismo rs

RB25GUY · 01-26-2016, 07:42 AM

I've driven a newer nismo juke it was auto but it was fun the seats are nice does have a awesome features like the skid pad option but i can agree the CVT on the 2011's and older are just atrocious, that with any nissan.

Mini's are fun but straight up piles of crap in e reliability department. I would not go near a used one let alone a new one. Seen way to many things fail on those cars even under warranty.

BOROSUN · 01-28-2016, 09:26 PM

soo true. but, I ain't afraid of no ghost.

it's at 4:25 the mini dies.
