Nissan Cube on the 101

Look what I saw while driving home from work on the 101 last night. Had manufacturer plates. The driver saw me taking photos of it and kept trying to lose me in traffic. Not sure why as the cars looks are not a secret.

I have to admit, it's a cool looking car in person.

I have to admit, when I first saw photos of it online I didn't really care for it. But in person it does look better. I guess I just like the original style of it. That's the same reason why I like the 1st gen xB over the 2nd gen xB.*

*2nd gen xB owners. Don't get your panties in a bunch. I like the 2nd gen, just like the 1st gen better. ;)

blah. the lack of any straight lines or angles makes it look like a melty marshmallow. it just looks flabby. the first gen xB proved that a car can have a different look without sacrificing good design sense.

Nice catch, Robert. I'd like to see one in person. I think I like it, but not sure about the lopsided back window...//TJ

it looks to me like they took pictures of a honda element and an xb, shredded the pieces up, put them back together and this is what they came up with...no bueno.
