That Isuzu is kinda cool.  A yellow Juke might be pretty neat.

Actually I saw a yellow one on the web somewhere with a black racing stripe accross the roof and hood.  Now if I can find it again.

How much room in the driver seat?
I found the Rogue seat did not travel far enough
And the Juke is smaller

Once again congrats on the purchase! Three things I have to say:

1) Thank you for sharing some very detailed pictures. The interior looks REALLY good and the exterior is polarizing but I have to hand it to Nissan for doing something interesting and different. Visually and tech wise too. It's brilliantly executed this way. It's not for everyone but I'm glad that it's for some people (sort of like how I felt about the PT Cruiser when that came out). I hope this develops a solid cult following.

2) I LOVE that steering wheel (I had to say it again). Looks great.

3) I'm not so excited about the Juke personally but I am excited by the prospect that it's Nissans way of introducing some more radical technologies into their cars. Bring on the next gen Altima with the same engine! Heck... bring the torque vectoring AWD sport edition. That`d be something!

Thanks

Yes an Altima with let's say a 2.0 DIG Turbo and maybe 275hp plus AWD w/torque vectoring....oh baby.  I suspect they are doing just that, and maybe the Sentra as well.

Stopped by the Nissan dealer yesterday and they had two on display - one outside and the blue one inside that I think is your colour and it looks really sharp. The sun was beating on it and the metallic jumped out. Kudos to Nissan for doing it.

Congrats!

The Juke's styling made more sense to me when I realized it was supposed to look like a dune buggy with a GTR's roof and a rally car's headlamps.

No, seriously, it was (click here).

I think the Juke is really amazing for what it offers (turbocharged engine and torque-vectoring AWD) for the price.  Really really impressive package.

Thanks for the detailed pics. After seeing a Juke in person the other day, I must admit, the looks are growing on me. Good value for it too. Congrats!
