This car is the same price as an equivalent CX-5, which will have much better resale value, is significantly larger, handles much better, has a much more extensive dealer network, has better fuel economy, and has similar straight line performance. You would have to be a chump to pick the RVR.
The Juke is built on a sub-compact and it shows. No adult can practically sit in the back seats and there is no cargo space with the seats up.

Wow, that Juke R looks like someone took a bunch of random parts from random cars and glued them all together. Was the designer blind or did they get an elephant to design it for them?

QuoteThis car is the same price as an equivalent CX-5If by the "same" price you mean the RVR is $1650 less then yes they are the Same price.RVR GT 28998 plus leather and Nav = 32498CX 5 GT 32750 plus tech pack(nav and HID) = 34 145Heck the RVR GT @ 28995 is still way less then the mid level CX 5 @ 31150.If i was forced to buy one I'de take the little Mitsu over the rainbow unicorn fart drive hype machine that is the CX 5 any day.
Well, I drove both and let's face it both power trains suck. I'de take the Mitsu since it's combo engine and tranny is a proven design, who knows how well skyactiv will hold up long term. Handling and steering feel are one of those things that get talked about by reviewers but average driver don't notice or for the most part care about( unless it is truly horrible ). I prefer the styling inside and out of the RVR, the CX 5 is a little busy for me. CX 5 is a fine car but I do think the RVR gets over looked and written off too soon. One last point the prices I gave were MSRP and when was the last time anyone payed that for a Mitsu?

yeah. and for some reason, local Mitsu salesguy seem to think the Mitsu is a top tier japanese brand (like honda) and didn't want to haggle at all..

They act like every car on lot is made of gold, including their horrendously overpriced used cars.
