just did a little homework. mind=blown

the Juke-R is predicted to be able to do 0-60 in only 3.6, have a top speed of 124 mph and it has the same power to weight ratio as a Viper SRT10. thats fucking retarded.

apparently they might lower the horsepower if it proves to be too much for such a lightweight new design.

124? i guess its not the most aerodynamic body ive ever seen but still. i watched a few other test videos and it seems cool.
that last shot is pretty crazy. thing is fast. maybe it just looks fast becasue its a crossover

yeah 124 seemed a little weak to me too, after seeing the acceleration and the power-to-weight ratio

My mom just traded in her Mini Cooper for a Juke recently. That one looks pretty nuts for a Juke.

Nissan needs to quit being a damn pussy and drop whatever fucking engine that is in a 370z and make it a Nismo edition. The Z line used to be so ballin' back in the 90's before they stopped making them and restarted in a completely NA engine.

For one you cant drift a r8, its an AWD drivetrain. The Juke R will have 56 more hp than the r8, and its 0-60 is 1 second faster than an r8. Just because its a luxury sport car from Germany doesn't mean it will be faster than a Japanese crossover

Thank you for the comment about the R8..

Don't be a dumbass and think you can drift anything just because it has power.
And if you would even consider drifting an Audi, you're an even bigger dumbass. Slam it or autocross it, nobody cares..

Typical rule of thumb, JDM drifts well and goes low.
Anything euro usually just goes low, but typically really low.

same here. stock audi wagons can easily top that, though they are a bit slower 0-60

you can definitely drift an r8- it is a 82-18 torque split so you can oversteer the shit out of it


inb4 some retard says drifting is rwd only

well thats the point. I would have an R8 too. and a GTR, a Gallardo Superleggera and an Agera R. I'm sayin the only reason I would buy it is if I had nothign else to spend the money on lol

i thought it was 85-15 on the V10, which only further supports your point. but maybe im wrong, you seem to know a lot about cars judging by some posts i've seen you make

The V8 has a much lower torque-split, 35-65 or something around there. but who the fuck would buy an 8 cylinder R8 if you were a multi millionaire

its limited you nerds- it has a full gtr drivetrain swap- easily capable of 180+ they have it limited so people dont go blowing into a corner at silverstone over 140mph in a fucking suv


and its not production- they built two to gauge intrest in building a larger turbo version of the juke





just a quick tidbit- a stock juke is faster around the ring than a brand new gti




and it has less horsepower
