I agree... but making a good SR & Spec-V version of a sentra couldn't hurt the brand. Nissan should bring back the Pulsar name in a FWD/AWD GTi competitor? In theory, that would be nice.

yah, but to compete vs a mk7 GTI, ull need over 250hp cause the GTI's crank hp rating is sandbagged .. these cars churn over 220whp/270lb ft range in stock form easily. with a simple piggyback and light weight wheels, it's 370z territory..and im not kidding.

Let
The Juke will be on a new chassis, next gen. Probably the sentra will be on that same chassis next gen as well. Maybe even the Z too? We'll just have to see.

Dey should make something like a juke-R awd but not so faking expensive.
Current juke isn't really good at anything besides rhyming with puke.

How much seat time you have in a Juke?

test drove the MT. i was looking to buy one a while back, but decided against it. it drove fine, light clutch, easy to drive but not really fast, terrible cargo space, rear seat room and foot wells cramped, not sure wat its strengths were besides the funky look.

id get the fiesta ST over it or the abarth for dat price if MT. and u still get ford and fiat's translations of funky comical look which actually looks better dan the juke..

I'll agree it is ergonomically bad, but the performance was pretty good in my experiences with the car. I had loads of fun in it but I preferred the AWD with CVT. YES I said it. Nissan's best cvt tune if all time is in the Juke. In fact, it's the only car with a cvt I truly like. Nissan hit it with the Juke AWD

Hey I resemble that!, and actually my Juke is my winter beater which is very good in the snow. Not a lot of people can say the have a 2014 Juke nismo awd winter beater, I can.

Oh and is a fun winter beater even with the cvt which I can turn into a virtual 7 speed
