I don't like the round headlights. they look like they belong on a 1967 chevy pickup

I know I have round headlights, those just look like the old round glass ones.

Looks to me like they took that guy from Houston (maybe nester) and copied him and his style on his black and red xB......

*2nd gen xB owners. Don't get your panties in a bunch. I like the 2nd gen, just like the 1st gen better. ;)
I'm gonna agree with Robert on this one. I'm in Korea and They have a few out here I have had the pleasure of seing 7 total 4 of which were modded out. They look sick!!! I feel this is the way Scion should have gone with the xb , you know a bit more round but still unique. I give nissan mad props for coming out with a box. Beleive me you all if it wasn't for my loyalty to the GREAT company SCION I would buy one of these as a second toy in an instant. Hope you all are well in the valley of the sun.
Rob you probably caught him driving out to the testing grounds on the west side of the valley.
But yah everyone. I LOVE SCION and won't strey from the flock, but know this those cubes are awesome up close. I guess I'll just have to wait untill the XB 3rd Gen to get another toy.

I like it. Rear window makes a lot of sense. Too bad Nissan dropped the ball on color offering in this country. Everybody else gets 40 colors we get 8. wtf.

I've seen them in person, Hong Kong 2006. I wasn't really impressed. The suzuki Solios (wagon r) I saw there were a lot more impressive. Especially the kitted, slammed one.

Just got back from the autoshow! lol i was anxious to check this thing out but they kept it locked! i love this lil thing, the ceiling on the interior is pretty cool it has a quote, "ripple" effect. I like the way the rear hatch opens to the side, but i would prefer to see a full back window instead of the panel on just one side. all in all nice car.

Not bad. I really like the modded ones. The only on that could pull of the wierd rear window is the black cause it hides it better. I can see its usefulness but thats the only thing that throws it off to me. Nissan really stole design cues from the xb1 thats for sure.

After thinking about that rear window, it's actually quite clever.


Someone in this thread mentioned "blind spot" on the drivers side. But really, there isn't. When we are driving and we check the passenger blind spot we look to the right and out the side and back. When we check drivers side we look out the left, over shoulder, and maybe catch the passenger window, not the rear. You will never see this "blind spot" as our heads do not turn that far when checking from the driver's seat. It works. Pretty smart actually.......

I really like the Cube! I look forward to another box-like car on the U.S. market.

Strange, when pics of the Cube were 1st posted here years ago everyone loved the back window. Everyone hoped if the Cube came to the States that they wouldn't change the back window.
