wow thats actually REALLY cute. lol. i prolly mainly like it tho cuz of the door handles, i like the pull out ones. but i dunno it seems like a fun car. i think it would be really cool to have one. seems like a updated version of the xb. just MY opinion! dont hate me for it! i love my xb

I wonder how much they are going to ask for one of those anyways. any clue? I think the xb is perfect for the price. wonder if they are going to compete

I believe the one in the pic has a 1.4L motor but the one i that there suppose to bring to the us along with the skyline is suppose to have a 1.5L with CVT tranny, da pricing is about the same as the xB maybe less i seen some where that the price is around 13,000

The Cube has a great design and a great name. The wrap-around window is the best.

I like it!

It seems like it should be the next generation xB instead of that horrible PT cruiser-inspired crap!

Wow...I just caught this. You ever see the dresses that some girls wear that only has one shoulder strap....I hate those! The back of that box is the same.

Still pretty good overall, but the off-centeredness of the rear bugs me.

At first I didn't care for the Cube but after a recent trip to Japan it grew on me. The Cube is far more popural then the bB nowadays in Japan. Seeing some nice Cubes over there changed my mind in buying one but now it seems it's not coming to the US afterall.

Same with me. When it was announced they were coming to the US as a 2007 model, I didn't like it. Now, that it has grown on me, they cancel their plans for a US Cube - at least for this year.

I really want to read something official on what Nissan really, really plans to do....

First I'd have to get past the point that I would never own a Nissan product. Give me a Nissan and I would sell it at the first offer. Other than that, what about that fat pillar in the back and the blind spot it creates?

Default Love it!

That is a sweet looking car! Dont know if its BETTER than the bb, and I'm glad that I have "toyota" inside mine, but that is cool. I really like the asymetry. But then, I obviously like the boxy look...

It looks too much like the one I drove in this morning. Give me something different! I don't want a copy with some small changes. I call this the "Ford Syndrome". It's when car companies take something that is selling well and reproduce it with minor changes, Calling it "There new and innovative design". IMO, that is weak thinking. I know an xB in a parking lot when I see it… In the dark… Covered in snow. It’s still an xB, not a Chevy sqR, or a Mazda Crate (these are not real cars don’t waste time looking them up). I drive what I drive because it’s not like everything else on the road.
Give me something with Fins on it; at least we haven’t seen that in a while.

If we are talking first we are looking back to the model A's back in the 20's. Maybe we should ask who first brought back the "box" design and is producing them today?

Looks pretty cool. I like the wrap around rear window, though it would be better if it went the whole way around instead of just drivers side to rear. Neat idea.
