Damn! My local dealer doesn't have any Jukes, which is a shame cause I wanted to drive one.

Oh man I love the Juke! Can't wait to drive one.

I think that they didn't fold flat in order to make them higher and more comfortable.

The Juke isn't really an AWD car anyway, it's more of a periodic 4-wheel drive car, that uses the ability to send power to different wheels kind of like the EVO and some hondas do in order to improve cornering and stability.

Have you seen an EVO launch from a stand still? The beauty of AWD is still superior, lol, even if it is only "periodic". This was my only point to the response that FWD was quicker.

Yeah, or, you know, the GT-R.

That was my point, it's actually probably better than AWD.

WTF are you talking about. Of course i know the GTR. lol And guess what its also AWD, not some part time AWD bs like you want us to think...So too is the WRX and the EVO. lol The only car that fits your description as a "part time" AWD system is the Celica Altrac. That car truly was a part time AWD system, BUT the GTR is infact AWD, you know? lol

Not really sure why you think I'm disagreeing with you on anything. The "you know" was me thinking it was funny that the biggest Nissan elephant in the room had been left out of the discussion on a Nissan forum in a discussion on AWD. And, my point is, that the Juke in AWD is, of course, a great thing. The only real bummer here is the lack of availability of a manual transmission in the AWD version of the car. My point is that it uses a computer controlled AWD system (like the GT-R, the EVO, etc) that makes things a lot BETTER than a more simple system. Not worse.
