Something you do so rarely that it doesn't matter. It's nice to have electric seats/wheel/mirrors with position memory if you share your car regularly, though.
It does matter. If you go on a roadtrip, or have a shared car with your partner, and a significant height difference, it takes for ever for some electric seats to move.
I was agreeing with you that electric seats are not necessary in most cars. Maybe this is why I like girls about my size. Less neck pain, less seat changes...
justfakeit888 yeah except when the car is on a slope and you try to adjust the seat forwards or backwards and end up either slamming your knees into the dash or in the cholo position a mile away from the steering wheel.
I do as best as I can. I have my own computer business, confidence isn’t really an issue; I just had a lot of info to convey to him, and i didn’t know what he knew about it, so I wanted to be complete. Typically the “alpha”’s worry about confidence more than I do, somewhat telling in my opinion, but then again, I can always have something to learn. I had a great time doing this. Sometimes the “apologizing” is me seeing it from the other side of the coin, as an outside observer. Anyone can grab an opinion and stick to it; in my experience, they are rarely thought out. I still have this car. Have about 30k on it. I don’t drive around much 😝. Thanks for watching though! I had a blast.
@@HikariSoulstrider man you’ve done everything right! You have your own business and are confident enough to drive a Juke. Something a selfconsidered „Alpha“ would never dare to do. And all these guys that consider themself an „Alpha“ typically work in the most dumbed down jobs and have a 80k$ bro truck on lease. So who’s better off? Keep being yourself my friend!
Idk what it is... but I absolutely love this car. Something about how different it looks is amazing to me. It has SO many awesome features that usually are only in newer, expensive cars like the keyless startup, GPS, and seat heaters. I want this car SO BAD and I think I’m actually gonna buy one!!
It ....its a Nissan juke..theyve been around for years....and alwaya had shit transmissons... newer Nissan!! It's junk! It's well known that they have bad front wheel drive and all wheel drive... transmissions....do your research......look up nissan cvt transmission problems....people dont research....and thats how some companies get to make shit ,and still be in business.....
I reviewed one of these the other day and I have to say I actually liked it. Coming from a guy who daily's a 2015 Vette and a lifted silverado on rainy days. I thought the styling was not necessarily pretty but definitely not boring like so many small crossovers/cuv's. It's small dimensions, punchy engine, and stiff suspension made it a relatively fun car to drive!
I'd buy a Juke, here's why: It has the same comfort (driver/passenger) and seating position as an SUV despite being small and better on gas. It's punchy enough to be driven with attitude. You can actually take it out on trails because it has good ground clearance and AWD. All that, and it's cheap. The market for this car is young people, who live in the city, and want to buy an SUV or van but can't justify the cost in gas for every day driving around town.
That's a contradiction isn't it? Young people who want an SUV but can't afford gas? Then how can they afford a twenty-six thousand dollar crossover? Granted this one is optioned, and maybe the twenty one thousand dollar one makes a bit more sense but still? You can afford a twenty thousand dollar new car but can't afford a tank of gas? Really, I think the people that bought this car are not quite so young folks who went in for a "sensible" type car and this was a crossover for a reasonable price that the salesperson managed to foist off on them...
***** I have a diesel 2WD 6 speed manual Juke here in the UK and I really like it. Mines the facelift one so it has a bigger trunk and it gets like 60mpg. Sounds crap but meh, I have my Miata for fun times. It handles nicely and is responsive for a tall car. I understand that it's not objectively the best car in any area but subjectively I like it. Isn't that what matters? The styling is different, some love it, some hate it (incidentally every female I have asked loves it), I like it because they did something unique and interesting even if it isn't conventionally pretty. At the end of the day if we all bought cars purely objectively we'd all drive a diesel Ford Focus or something equally dull. But we're not machines and sometimes you like things for no real reason other than you just do. I agree that it's a bit of a jack of all trades kinda car but it's got character and I like it so meh... Just my two pennies worth.
***** No features? Certainly not. Ironically before I got my Juke I had a 5yr old Honda Accord and whilst that was a very good solid and statistically fine car it was so unbelievably bland it was ridiculous. I much prefer having a Juke, it's got bags of character and tons of gadgets. If you don't want to buy a brand new car then fair enough. That's your decision. I own a 20 year old Miata (this is actually my second 20 year old Miata after the 1st one rusted beyond economic repair) so I get the appeal of older cars. But for some people the Juke is a good car. There's also something incredibly satisfying about the tight and solid feeling of something that is factory fresh, knowing tha nobody else has had their terrible way with it doing poor repairs etc. I understand your logic but lambasting someone for wanting a new car is missing the point a bit. If nobody bought new cars then you wouldn't be able to pick up a second hand bargain a few years down the line.
"I'm making 'sport' boost right now" Man, if you did an actual video on this, you could have the Roman do a rap at the end with the line "I'm making SportBoost like I'm Frank Fontaine."
A couple of years back I was rewatching Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex the second season. Which aired in Japan from 2004 to 2005. If I recall correctly.... In one of the episode it seems that Togusa is driving his personal car which, judging from the badge, is clearly a Nissan (product placement in anime is nothing new), but far more interesting is that the car looks a lot like what eventually became the Nissan Juke in 2009.
The Juke seems a bit more usable than the Aztek. Even for someone like me who's into unappreciated and seemingly purposeless cars, I wouldn't even take an Aztek.
Kim Alatore the Aztek was surprisingly useful inside, lots of storage and little cubie holes for stuff. I think it would be great for camping. Just so top heavy it wasn't fun to drive and ugly as sin
Sport mode is for handling. the steering gets tighter and the vectoring to the wheels is a lot sharper. this thing is actually pretty fun to hoon about in on back roads.
I think Nissan designers were a little high when they designed this one. It's not space-efficient at all, and it's not that attractive, either. But it seems to be a popular car worldwide. Go figure...
The Juke like the Gtr is all about innovation and sophistication; starting with the look to the mechanical engineering. A lot of people will fail to comprehend it existence because it's a nissan.
Thanks for the upload! I just bought a used 2011 Nissan Juke S FWD and was wondering about the way it drives with the CVT so thanks for addressing the kind of “drag” or pause it has sometimes. It was kind of strange to me when the RPMs are up around 3 when I’m going - down -a hill lol. Anyway I never thought I would own a car that looks like this but it is in great condition and has grown on me so much since I bought it a couple weeks ago. And even thought it is kind of weird on the space it’s perfect for what I need. And 100% I love the sparkles! Thanks guys :)
CVT and Turbo combo is interesting, it seems like it holds RPM up high when under heavy acceleration (remember these CVTs understand how much load is being put on them at any given time) so it would allow the turbo to stay spooled and make high boost.
Its an eye catching people mover with attractive options. The Juke is young (turbo/AWD) The Rogue is practical (3rd row) The Murano is luxurious (Cashmere Leather)
Yellow fog lights do work, but not for the reason people think. The color yellow doesn't effect the way the light travels through fog, but it does effect the way the light travels through your eye. It's the same reason why silver star headlights look more blurry; they bluer light scatters within your cornea (eye jelly).
It would have been hailed as the 240SX descendant (like the BRZ/FRS), but if they won't even bother to give us a proper Sentra SE-R or a new Z car, I have no faith in Nissan to be interested in enthusiasts' wants.
masterwhopper414 yeah the Sentra is a grandmas car now & they threw the 370z at us and told us to like it or else. Nissan does kinda suck now that you bring up the big points 😕
The factor you're leaving out here is that cars like this will never handle well because they are too HIGH. Every inch you raise the centre of mass will hurt handling, and you could simply lower this chassis, but the chassis is still too tall to be a sports car.
I heard about that Automation game, and didn't think too much of it, because I thought it would be kind of... more for non-car-people, kind of lame. But that's actually really cool, that engines do stick to the real limitations of a real engine like that. I think they must've put some seriously great programmers to work on that game, for something like that to function well. What you said in the video made me view that game entirely differently! Also excited to see your let's play on it! :)
AutomationGame I think so. I've been doing carmods for BeamNG and tried some programming as well, and I haven't tried your game. But to me, that seem really complicated to have it all hang together like that dynamically. Unless the gameplay in this is just "tick boxes for turbo, 4 banger and 87 octane"... In that case, eh, it's still cool.
Owner went to the dealership not even looking to buy a car, went home with the top of the line $30k *JUKE*. You are very polite, not sure if I would have been as nice as you.
Does anyone know if these thing are prone to electrical problems? Particularly in the nismo one? Just curious because I am a fireman where i live and a couple months ago we had one spontaneously combust (determined to be caused by burning wires)
The Nissan juke is a pretty cool but unusual car , i took one for a test drive earlier today and it kind of surprised me on how much I like it, and I buying it? Yep i am . My 2009 Chevy Trailblazer LT was totalled by my insurance company when it got rear-ended so now on to something new , having a none all wheel drive or 4x4 is not an option as I live in the country and the gas mileage this little Juke gets is going to be a dream come true after driving a 5.3l v8 and getting 14 city and 18 highway mpgs and the juke im buying is super cheap with super low miles so its a win .
Went looking at these after my Aunt got a Rogue. Came across the Murano which I really liked until I started digging into the AWD system and CVT transmission. I ended up with a Subaru :D
Automation! I bought that game in 2013. It is great watching it evolve and become better. It should become more well known when the final release is done.
It would be awesome to talk to you about automation, been playing it for ages! dunno how you having problems with a turbo 4AG, was a weeabo and made Itsuki's 3A-U turbo and made over 150hp :P
"Oh did you wash the car before..?" Obviously he did, the car was immaculate and he said more than once that he takes great care of the vehicle. I hope you offered to have it washed after the filming.
That's funny, my 96 saturn did that with the engine braking, it would hold you in a lower gear haha. The brakes lasted a very long time!! Especially enduring the punishment I dished out daily!
I love mine! I got the FWD 6spd manual turbo, much more engaging, though I wish it had the torque vectoring AWD (which is aimed at street performance, not off-roading). Also, USA gets only the turbo 1.6 models (power ranging from 188 to 215hp), rest of the world gets a N/A 1.5, N/A 1.6, Turbo 1.2 and a 1.5 Turbo Diesel The aftermarket also is growing a lot for them, some Jukes reaching 200 AWHP and others 270FWHP!
I have one and I have to say it's a great car at drives excellent. downside to it is way too small on the inside. it does handle snow and ice excellent. I have actually gotten a lot of compliments out of it.
In Europe as well as the 1.6 turbo 6 speed manual or CVT AWD we also had a 1.6 NA with 2WD and 5 speed manual or CVT (also 2WD) and a 1.5 litre turbo diesel with 2WD and a 6 speed manual. Since they did the facelift the 1.6 NA got phased out for a 1.2 turbo which gets better economy and is more torquey at the same time. My daily driver is a 1.5 diesel Tekna grade so the same interior spec with navi etc. as this car. It drives really nicely, I like the looks after the facelift with the DTRL's and more modern lamp clusters. I think I just like the fact that it's different whereas my girlfriend absolutely loves the looks and a lot of my female friends are the same. Mine scores extra points with the female market because it's "Ink Blue" which is actually purple most of the time because it's a purple resin with a blue metallic flake in it and it's always cloudy in England so we don't see the flake so much. I do like the colour and I like the car as a whole, plus the diesel gets around 60mpg which is useful.
never seen a juke with sunroof before... and i look at them all day long... also on the Juke, "sport" mode actually gives you higher boost, given you have premium in the tank :)
I could see it as a two person active lifestyle tourer. So with the back seats down probably plenty of room for stuff and with a roofrack to carry canoos kayaks bikes luggage things ect. It has enough ground clearance to ride on the "rough" ish side roads to get to the spot you want to be, and gets good gas mileage to go long highway distances. I feel that is what they were going for but with committee design I'd guess they went less for the outdoorsman and tried to market it to northern city drivers while maybe trying to get in competition with the Kia soul. So Nissan hit somewhere in the middle of those two and got the juke. So I am imagining that there were 2 cars Nissan wanted to make and they just overlaid both consepts and traced then said hey thats not too bad. That would explain the odd light setup
So here's something weird that wasn't brought up in the video. There's another difference between the FWD manual Juke and the AWD CVT. The FWD manual version has a solid rear axle, while the AWD CVT gets an independent rear suspension. This makes absolutely NO SENSE to me. Can someone please explain why this is the case because apparently I'm too dumb.
He got it because he was looking for a new car and it was an impulse by because it's weird. He's probably one of those people who only keeps a car for 2 years anyway
***** Why? Some peoples commute involves stop and go traffic, why would you want to drive a manual in that everyday? Some people also just don't like shifting there own gears, nothing wrong with that. Not only that but automatics, and especially dual clutch transmissions are faster than manuals so for cars like GTR and Ferrari 458, I'm glad those are automatic and not manuals. Automatics also get better gas mileage and are easier to use. I think that most cars out need to have a stick OPTION, but not every car out NEEDS to be a stick. That's just silly...
Firstly, Sport mode gives the Juke more acceleration Power. Also it has a Half engine of a GTR depending on the version but all have the GTR engine. Eco, it gives less power to save energy. Got stars more higlighted more gas saved. Normal is a normal drive.
this reminds me of a volvo v70 xc. You can pick one up for like 2k and they do the same thing 5cyl turbo awd manual* and shiftable auto. Longer and shorter, but very comfortable.
I worked lfor nissan in AZ and drove the 2014 Nismo RS Juke and it was a ball of fun.....215hp 6 speed fwd price on the RS is a bit high ...but would buy one
Built in the UK, and replaced the seriously dull Nissan Almera hatchback. And it seems to sell well to the over 60's in the UK, and sold normally at substantial discount
The 1990 Cressida didn't have the three knobs? My mom's 2001 Citroen Xsara has them, as does my school's 2003 Toyota Yaris, 2006 VW Caravelle and 2011 Volvo FH.
CVTs are not Bad Transmissions. every one pounds on them but they have gotten better since they first came out. You don't one want Don't Buy a car with it in it.
In Europe you see them everywhere : a lot, at least in France. I think it is has been made to avoid competing frontally with the Captur a more "conventional" SUV made by Nissan main shareholder/strategic ally Renault.
In my eyes, the Nissan Juke is like a "butterface " model. The body is hot and going for a ride is fun, but the face is one only a mother could love...
Owner sounds like Mr. Regular's younger brother or something. He speaks just like him
Even to the part where he says "They give you the doughnut".
Mr. Normal
its fucking crazy, I literally thought he was talking to himself for a bit
It really made an interesting POV drive, Could have watched all day.
Right down to the RAD-iator.
"Where do you want it? How hot do you want it? How hard do you want it?"
perfect.
I always want it really hard.. right in my face. :D

Liked for 'all 3 of them'.

It kinda looks like a prototype to both the Juke and the Leaf, like they took that design and ran with it in different ways
In France that kind of car is really popular, thats why they made the audi Q1, citroen cactus, renault captur, opel moka, ford ecosport etc
RAAAADIATOR!!!

Does anyone know if these thing are prone to electrical problems? Particularly in the nismo one?
Just curious because I am a fireman where i live and a couple months ago we had one spontaneously combust (determined to be caused by burning wires)
does it have mp3 mode? or possibility to use it with spotify?
Mr. Regular, Where is that Lets Play? We were promised!!!
;(
Haha, those things are so freaking WEIRD! I test drove one a few years ago, and I STILL want one.
The excitement over "bass boat sparkle"
Omg it looks so unique!! I love it! I'm 5 feet 2 I'm sure this is the car for me😂 I can't wait to get I! I'm so excited!!!!!!
What is that he said about the car holding you back when you go down a hill?
is this the same parking lot they started the 66 mini in?
The Nissan juke is a pretty cool but unusual car , i took one for a test drive earlier today and it kind of surprised me on how much I like it, and I buying it? Yep i am . My 2009 Chevy Trailblazer LT was totalled by my insurance company when it got rear-ended so now on to something new , having a none all wheel drive or 4x4 is not an option as I live in the country and the gas mileage this little Juke gets is going to be a dream come true after driving a 5.3l v8 and getting 14 city and 18 highway mpgs and the juke im buying is super cheap with super low miles so its a win .
Winedy windows CAN break. I've had 2 cars with busted manual window assemblies.
My mom really likes this car...but then again she likes the Smart ForTwo as well so that doesn't mean much.
Went looking at these after my Aunt got a Rogue. Came across the Murano which I really liked until I started digging into the AWD system and CVT transmission.
I ended up with a Subaru :D
In France up to 1993 It was law that you had to have the yellow headlights. Wonder if it will keep the bugs away.
Automation! I bought that game in 2013. It is great watching it evolve and become better. It should become more well known when the final release is done.
It would be awesome to talk to you about automation, been playing it for ages! dunno how you having problems with a turbo 4AG, was a weeabo and made Itsuki's 3A-U turbo and made over 150hp :P
"Oh did you wash the car before..?" Obviously he did, the car was immaculate and he said more than once that he takes great care of the vehicle. I hope you offered to have it washed after the filming.
I actually bought a set a silverstar bulbs and when I replaced them with the cheap no brands ones, the were identical.
Mr. Regular is doing Let's Plays of Automation?
I don't usually watch that stuff, but I want this as soon as possible.
Thats why I love my '14 ram quad cab, the climate controls are 3 dials! So simple, cheap yes? Goood I like it that way!
That's funny, my 96 saturn did that with the engine braking, it would hold you in a lower gear haha. The brakes lasted a very long time!! Especially enduring the punishment I dished out daily!
how did you get around the map update...also have a 2011 juke...love it!!!!
Mr regular has turned into the howtobasic of the car world. WE NEED TO KNOW
I love mine! I got the FWD 6spd manual turbo, much more engaging, though I wish it had the torque vectoring AWD (which is aimed at street performance, not off-roading).
Also, USA gets only the turbo 1.6 models (power ranging from 188 to 215hp), rest of the world gets a N/A 1.5, N/A 1.6, Turbo 1.2 and a 1.5 Turbo Diesel
The aftermarket also is growing a lot for them, some Jukes reaching 200 AWHP and others 270FWHP!
I have one and I have to say it's a great car at drives excellent. downside to it is way too small on the inside. it does handle snow and ice excellent. I have actually gotten a lot of compliments out of it.
In Europe as well as the 1.6 turbo 6 speed manual or CVT AWD we also had a 1.6 NA with 2WD and 5 speed manual or CVT (also 2WD) and a 1.5 litre turbo diesel with 2WD and a 6 speed manual. Since they did the facelift the 1.6 NA got phased out for a 1.2 turbo which gets better economy and is more torquey at the same time. My daily driver is a 1.5 diesel Tekna grade so the same interior spec with navi etc. as this car. It drives really nicely, I like the looks after the facelift with the DTRL's and more modern lamp clusters. I think I just like the fact that it's different whereas my girlfriend absolutely loves the looks and a lot of my female friends are the same. Mine scores extra points with the female market because it's "Ink Blue" which is actually purple most of the time because it's a purple resin with a blue metallic flake in it and it's always cloudy in England so we don't see the flake so much. I do like the colour and I like the car as a whole, plus the diesel gets around 60mpg which is useful.
I liked it because it was weird and funny, now I like it because it's funny, a good car, has everything anyone needs and it's all kinds of good weird.
never seen a juke with sunroof before... and i look at them all day long...
also on the Juke, "sport" mode actually gives you higher boost, given you have premium in the tank :)
I could see it as a two person active lifestyle tourer. So with the back seats down probably plenty of room for stuff and with a roofrack to carry canoos kayaks bikes luggage things ect. It has enough ground clearance to ride on the "rough" ish side roads to get to the spot you want to be, and gets good gas mileage to go long highway distances. I feel that is what they were going for but with committee design I'd guess they went less for the outdoorsman and tried to market it to northern city drivers while maybe trying to get in competition with the Kia soul. So Nissan hit somewhere in the middle of those two and got the juke. So I am imagining that there were 2 cars Nissan wanted to make and they just overlaid both consepts and traced then said hey thats not too bad. That would explain the odd light setup
After looking at some concept drawings it does look taller off the ground
Warthog. Nissan Warthog. It's got the front shoulders, compact rear haunches, and porcinomorphic front fascia of a... WARTHOG
So here's something weird that wasn't brought up in the video. There's another difference between the FWD manual Juke and the AWD CVT. The FWD manual version has a solid rear axle, while the AWD CVT gets an independent rear suspension. This makes absolutely NO SENSE to me. Can someone please explain why this is the case because apparently I'm too dumb.
I went into this video wondering what Mr Regular had to say about this weird little car, and now I've come out kinda wanting one.
Keep doing vids this long !
hi all does anyone know where to find his lets play
An Isuzu VCross review from you guys would be awesome!
the owner seems nice, but I still can't understand the reason why he bought it. I think my little hatch has a bigger trunk. Also. . . why automatic?
Behemothokun My pocket is bigger lmao
You can't get in AWD with a stick, and not everything needs to be a stick...
He got it because he was looking for a new car and it was an impulse by because it's weird.
He's probably one of those people who only keeps a car for 2 years anyway
Blizak yes everything needs to be a stick
***** Why? Some peoples commute involves stop and go traffic, why would you want to drive a manual in that everyday?
Some people also just don't like shifting there own gears, nothing wrong with that.
Not only that but automatics, and especially dual clutch transmissions are faster than manuals so for cars like GTR and Ferrari 458, I'm glad those are automatic and not manuals.
Automatics also get better gas mileage and are easier to use.
I think that most cars out need to have a stick OPTION, but not every car out NEEDS to be a stick. That's just silly...
Firstly, Sport mode gives the Juke more acceleration Power. Also it has a Half engine of a GTR depending on the version but all have the GTR engine. Eco, it gives less power to save energy. Got stars more higlighted more gas saved. Normal is a normal drive.
this reminds me of a volvo v70 xc. You can pick one up for like 2k and they do the same thing 5cyl turbo awd manual* and shiftable auto. Longer and shorter, but very comfortable.
I like how they put the rear view mirror in the middle of the windshield its genius.
2011 turbocharged nissan juke review?
The Juke's headlight set-up is reminiscent of the Pontiac Aztek to me.
I worked lfor nissan in AZ and drove the 2014 Nismo RS Juke and it was a ball of fun.....215hp 6 speed fwd price on the RS is a bit high
...but would buy one
Nice reflection at the beginning of the video m8
I'm potentially excited for Automation, and to see you play it. Should be interesting.
In the UK we have a Nismo RS Juke with a close ratio 6 speed and an LSD. Has 0-60 in 6.8 seconds in the 2wd engine.
Also even though I do not care for it has some good ground clearance and approach and departure angles without ripping off the front and rear bumpers.
Hey hey hey, Automation, I love this game. I actually bought that, it's neat.
Built in the UK, and replaced the seriously dull Nissan Almera hatchback. And it seems to sell well to the over 60's in the UK, and sold normally at substantial discount
Where in pa are you?
The 1990 Cressida didn't have the three knobs? My mom's 2001 Citroen Xsara has them, as does my school's 2003 Toyota Yaris, 2006 VW Caravelle and 2011 Volvo FH.
Need review of optioned-out Subaru 360. Thank you, Mr. Regular..
I think this car really grows on you I love it
CVTs are not Bad Transmissions. every one pounds on them but they have gotten better since they first came out. You don't one want Don't Buy a car with it in it.
+dvddmc Our new Subaru Forester has a really well sorted one.
Where can I see Mr. Regular's Let's Play?
In Europe you see them everywhere : a lot, at least in France.
I think it is has been made to avoid competing frontally with the Captur a more "conventional" SUV made by Nissan main shareholder/strategic ally Renault.
That game you're talking about sounds really fun
Does Mr. Regular have a gaming channel or something?
In my eyes, the Nissan Juke is like a "butterface " model. The body is hot and going for a ride is fun, but the face is one only a mother could love...
i told my grandma who lives in bethlehem about you and now she watches your videos
"Torque vectoring" sounds like an electronic open diff to me
Mr Regular Lets-Play? Yes, please!
