This may change some opinions on the all new Nissan Juke:

Nissan Juke: The Good, Not Bad, and Sort of (but not really) Ugly?

Nissan Juke represents a part of Nissan's attempt to break into the youth market currently dominated by Scion. But is it the right way to go? It's looks are so... controversial, that most care not to look beyond it's froggy exterior and into what makes this car something worthy of purchase; a fun car with its own hard-to-beat personality.

At the heart of this amphibian beats the MR16DDT. The MR series line is a newer series of engines made by Nissan for their subcompact cars, namely the Versa. But while the Versa's engines are dull and uninspiring, this new MR is a whole other world. This engine has AWD as an option, and when coupled with it's 188bhp engine (177ft-lbs), pushes this car 0-100 kph in approximately 7 seconds, faster with the optional manual over the standard CVT.

The Nissan Juke is new for 2011, but despite it's "new" status, it is competitively priced at around 19k MSRP. Not bad. In fact, its great, considering the massive complement of standard features on this car. Most notable of these include 17" alloy wheels, navigation, Ipod integration, auxiliary port, Bluetooth, steering-wheel mounted controls, folding seats, and CVT. It also has a clean, modern, tastefully done interior, that would look proper in a 370z. It even has a sporty display, similiar to the one in the GT-R, which allows the driver to adjust throttle response, steering, transmision timing, as well as allowing the driver to monitor turbo-boost and their lateral-g's (though I doubt the Juke will ever go fast enough to make that useful).

All in all, the Juke is a superb car. But it should have looked like this:

Best Lap of Any Track of Anywhere in Anything by Anyone Ever

...

What exactly is that?
