would anyone here trade out for one of these?

LA 2008: Nissan unleashes the slightly less cube-y Cube [w/VIDEO] - Autoblog

i hate and love it at the same time...quirky looks, 122 hp v4, 30+ hwy mpg, traction control, cvt, etc. etc...

 

If the cube would have been available before I purchased the Fit (which I adore 150% and have not one regret for buying it), then I would have taken it into consideration along with the Fit.

I really like the look of the cube. I have also had good experiences in the past with Nissan. Perhaps in about 7 years I will revisit the idea of a Cube.

 

i kept waiting for clowns to pop out of that thing

 

The Cube brings back most of the "weird/ugly/cute" lost when the original Scion xb was redone; in addition, the Scion's ridiculous center mounted gauge pod turns me off. I MIGHT consider owning one (if it has a manually shifted version!). Having said that, I am STILL hopelessly in LOVE w/ my FIT!!!
'07 VBP Sport 5MT w/ minor appearance & comfort mods!!

 

i believe you can get a 6-speed manual. nissan obviously learned from scion and honda before bringing the cube here. hence, it's loaded with all the stuff the others did not have in the first gens.

if scion brought the bb here, i might trade out to that.

 

I would consider it

 

no. I love stickshift way too much to ever drive an auto or cvt.

 

The Nissan website says there is an optional 6 speed manual....

 

that car looks like a toaster.

 

v4 lawl hahaha.


i think it's a hideous little thing.
i would probably even want an 09 fit before i'd consider the cube

 

okay so the roof in the interior is kind of cool:

 

its trippy^^

 

all that and they couldn't put a round dome light in it, see thats the little things that i like to think honda would have done, i love my honda's, all of them

 

I would consider it. But i think the gd3 is far sexier. The 6-speed is kinda cool though.

 

I was always amazed that the Scion Xa never became very popular. I always thought it was a good competitior to the first Fits, and I really thought it had aggressive styling. I'd almost compare the first XB to the Fit, just cuz of the inside space. The Cube is like that, ie: little box with a lot of room inside. Of course, the Fit looks waaaaay better.

 

To me, the Cube is more hideous than the boxy Scions. I'd take a Fit any day of the week!!!

 

 

rofl I don't really like the roof. Um, even if it has a 6spd, I'll stick with Honda

 

Here's the conversation I just had with my fiancee:

Me: "So Nissan looks like they're going to try and compete with the Fit since the Versa isn't doing so well against it." (We considered a Versa, for about a day then test drove it and said no way)
I slide the macbook over to show her the pic of the Cube
Her: "Uhhhh..." (silence, confused look on her face) "That looks weird. Ugly. Actually, it looks like a... marshmallow. ...I want to eat it."
Me: "Should I get the firepit going then?"
Her: "Mmmm, delicious."

So, time for s'mores.

 

Yeah even if it does have a six speed, I still prefer Hondas... even tho my 350z was nice. haha
