The Cube has been available for years in Japan, and the last news I heard was thT Nissan USA had definitely decided not to import it. Has anyone heard different?
Now, if Scion decides to do with that rumored "bigger, Americanized" successor to the xB for '07, rather than importing the new bB, then there's going to be a market niche that will definitely be Cube-shaped!

Theres a (prototype/tester?) Nissan Cube that my dads employees saw at a restaurant. It was parked right next to an xB and it had weird blue license plates and all of the badges were taped over. They even took some pics to prove it. Maybe it IS coming after all!

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

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.

no matter how you look at it, the CUBE will be seen as a copycat design in the states, just like the hhr/pt
chevy sqR
I googled it, I can't find it...

Yep, they'll move the steering wheel over to the left side but leave the rear hatch alone creating a big blind spot and also do the same stupid thing Honda does... have a rear door open the wrong way for parking on the right side of the road.
You can still put tape over the badges, but it is still a Nissan!
