    As a daily driver, sure I would drive it. I wouldn't waste my time modifying it.

    someone actually rented one of these for the national nissan convention at mid america this year. at one point he set cruise control at 50 and went around the track without braking.....they actually handle quite well on the track.

    Speaking of the Cube, a little side note: Everyone that drove the Cube confirmed what we already knew: It’s just a few mods away from being a great autocross performer! Underpowered, but certainly not lacking in the handling department, Ray proved a point by making a couple COMPLETE laps of the course with the cruise control set at 50mph. No braking. Sweet.

    Being on coils def makes the cube handle like it is on rails, but it is just sloooooow.

    Thankfully most of the versa suspension and bracing parts fit the cube too.

    Maybe I should take mine to an autocross one day.... :P

    I have never driven one, but I did take a ride in one and for a daily it's a great car. Super easy to load a bunch of stuff in and easy to park as well. The only thing that worried me about the car was how low the rear lights are. I can just imagine living in a crowded city and getting your lights smashed from people who don't know how to park. In most cars it would just be slight damage to the bumper, but with these cars you would have a messed up bumper along with busted lights.

    Beat me to it! Lol, yes the car is pretty slow. 0-60 in over 9 seconds, which apparently will be faster than the new Honda crz

    I'd love to see someone boost the little 1.8L motor, just a small little turbo to bump hp up to around 200-250, which would give it PLENTY of pep.

    chompsticks car looks pretty good in person though. I love the Nissan logo on the back, and the center exhaust. The cars have a very Asian look, not my style but I can't knock a well done car!

    and Tdurr is just jealous he doesn't have one... since he haz teh gayz

    I wouldn't daily drive or modify it. Honda makes better daily drivers and their cars have more aftermarket support.

    Mine's the red one.
