Took home 3rd at the 9th Annual Nissan Meet in NJ. Somehow didn't take any pictures when I was there, so here is one from the parking garage

Same old stop.

Overlooking the SF Peninsula and top edge of Silicon Valley.

Note the haziness in each pic. That there is smoke from the Monterey County area fire, some 75 miles South of here.

As I got 'er home, it started making a mild and cyclic thump thump thump noise. I suspect a front wheel bearing or something similar as it's in cadence with car speed, thankfully not engine speed. Perfect timing as I planned to tear down the front end in a week or so for general service.

Still won't push this one anywhere near where my Z33 runs but it holds its own up in the hills.

Sexy little Shiro,Hang on to that baby she's gonna be worth good money some day!.Love it

Thanks! When it hits 5x what I have into it, I'll let 'er go. (IOW, probably keeping it.)

But then again, I said that about my Nizzers.... and they're both now living at the other end of the state.

Congrats!!!

There's a mixed review on the aesthetics of the Juke, as I'm sure you're aware. Me personally, I like it just cuz it is "out of the ordinary".

Oh, and to show you how crazy I've gotten after a trip to Yew Rope, I'm actually considering one of these stupid things...

Or as they say on Counting Cars... "Where's the rest of the car at?!"

Don't worry, will explain this insanity in another thread shortly.

Thank you thank you... We like oddballs, the element isnt exactly winning any beauty pageant... Its an acquired tast I think, we like it... We actually set out to get a honda hrv but once the wife found out it was assembled in mexico she became insta not interested... We checked out and made an offer on a nismo juke but they didnt want to deal, and honestly kinda glad because my wife drives like an old asian lady and she had a hard time getting into the racing style sparco seats...

Trav ill let you know if I ever drive it haha haven't yet... I was driving behind my wife on the way home and noticed a brake light is out wtf.. But o well... Wife is happy its home, and we are now back to our comfortable 4 buggies
