I test drove a Juke NISMO (non-RS) back in November 2013. While it looks fun standing still, and feels fun driving it around back roads at 40, it's definitely not fun on the highway. I frequently found it jumping to 3k RPMs to make it up small hills. Worse yet, it felt like it would start torque steering when it downshifted (suppose it could have also been wind though). Needless to say, it feels like it drives you and I decided it wasn't the car for me. Your mileage may vary, but it's definitely something to look for when test driving.
