Nissan Cube
 
I saw one on the way to work this morning, white. I have to say, it looks kind of neat.

The guy in the Cube seemed confused that me, driving a new Z, was slowing down to oggle over his Cube. It looks like it belongs in a Spongebob episode and I love it!!!

Still not sure what I think, saw one at the Texas Z party and pass one a few times on my way to work but still not really into this boxy car fad.

The thing is it's boxy but it's not. It's kind of cool. Better than a stupid Scion.

True, which is why I am still unsure of it. The Scion line is just wrong, a co-worker here has it and it just makes me want to throw up, but the Cube has a different angle on it, sort of.

One of my neighbors has a Scion with that crazy orange paint. I puke on it every day and it still looks the same. :roflpuke2:

Co-worker has a purple one, with some awful wheels, nothing like stretched tires or anything but they are just eh.

I've driven both. I like the Scion. Much bigger feeling on the inside compared to the Cube. Also they have almost the exact same interiors. The second gen xB is :barf:

They aren't for everybody, but a neat little car. Nissan is trying to hit the 16-21 year olds. The funny thing is that the people buying them here, are the ones that bought the PT crusier when it first came out.

BanningZ 07-16-2009 07:39 PM

^that doesn't surprise me. People like Retro and unusual these days. The mileage doesn't hurt either. I've already seen a dozen or so Cubes driving, around. The one thing I have noticed is that it feels like it has a little more "go" than the stock 1st gen xB. Cute cars.

Hey FuszNissan any idea on realistic mpg numbers after the 10K mark? I realize they are pretty new, and the guy at the dealership I went to had no idea.

When we bought the xB it was getting 29 city/ 34 highway mpg. Now we're getting around 36 city/ 42 hwy mpg and we're at the 12K mark.

LOL! I hated the Cube the first time I saw it...but its really grown on me...to the point where i'm trying to get my GF to buy one! Same thing with her...hated it at first...then we took a demo out to the beach for a day and she likes it too. :driving: The interior is huge...the back seats fold down for plenty of storage room, and great gas milage...don't forget the price tag either!!! :tup:

nogoodname 07-16-2009 08:41 PM

i dont think i could drive a car that ppl would think is cute....lol

Scott@FontanaNissan 07-16-2009 09:14 PM

My GF thinks the 370z is cute too...:koolaidwall:

AK370Z 07-16-2009 09:19 PM

If I were to ever drive the cube, I'd make sure I put on dark tint so that I'm NOT recognizable from the outside :ugh:

bigaudiofanat 07-16-2009 09:26 PM

IMO there just copying off of everyone else, Honda Element and the Scion xB were the first.
