Nissan Juke-R… I want one!
Nissan decided to shake up the automotive world by combining a Nissan Juke and the monstrous Nissan GT-R, with a creation that they call the "Juke-R". This crossover is literally the ultimate compact crossover. Sadly, Nissan is developing only two of these concept vehicles - one left handed one and one right handed one. Both vehicles will be stuffed with the 2010 GT-R's twin turbocharged V6 motor as well as the GT-R's drive-train and suspension. The body was given a black matte finish and rides on the 20-inch GT-R alloy wheels. Although the Juke-R is just a concept, Nissan admits it could go to work on a sportier production of the Juke if public reaction to the hot crossover is positive. Well Nissan... we give it two thumbs up!

Hello Nissan Juke
What an odd little mini-SUV/crossover/compact car...
Designed by Nissan's studios in Europe, this car is very different from the norm. It's very Nissan, yet more quirky than the stuff coming out of Korea. Even though my first impressions of the vehicle consisted of things like "Buzz, your girlfriend! Woof!" or "No Nissan! Bad Nissan!," I tend to find myself drawn to the car. Maybe its the video...the music is so calming and the design just seems so much more appealing while spinning in circles. Although Nissan hasn't released the US-specs on this compact crossover, I'm sure we will all be hoping for the 4WD 1.6L turbo'd 4 banger that Europe is getting.
Nissan is planning to debut the Juke to America at the New York Auto Show. -Tanker
