Looks good. I'm getting a SV awd, for the wife as well. She wants either bronze metallic or the dark blue one. I test drove it and the juke is awesome. Nissan is extremely stupid for not having that engine in a ultra lightweight RWD sport coupe chassis. Talk about possible miata killing engine. I see a bright future in low cost sports car performance with the juke engine if nissan uses its noggin for something other than jipping on MSRP's

My condolences on actually owning a Corolla. Juke would absolutely kick the crap out of that POS.

Very nice, Jukes are so much fun to drive! After test driving one at my local dealer, I really loved how "happy" the car seemed to be driving around.

When I was on the local Nissan lot looking and test driving Zs, the dealer told me as we walked by that the Juke is a super fun car to drive second to the Z on the lot. He said it is ugly as sin but a blast to drive. That surprised me. They are kind of growing on me though and dont look that bad anymore.

That's how we felt also. It's really grown on us. The running lights up on the fenders look extra cool at night.

The Juke looks very unique, hope she's enjoying it! It fits the garage well.

I really want to get my hands on a Juke to play with!

The Juke needs an HKS exhaust and some Venaci 20's. ;-)

The Juke is not a bad car but one of the worst names to come along in decades.

I love the juke! Congrats! I just don't like how the headlights are on the bottom, projectors would be nice.

I think the Juke is actually shorter than the Z.
