    Watch out, Nissan Cube owners, your resale value is about to take a nosedive. James Sikes of "Crazy Prius Acceleration" fame has bought a Nissan Cube to replace his Toyota Prius. Amazing that he decided to go with another car with that newfangled smart key system.

    That is by far the ugliest of the box cars.

    The Rube with The Cube?

    At least with the wrap around window it should be easy for the authorities to see him pumping the brakes while he struggles to slow the Borg Like Cube of The Nissan. Resistance is futile and so is braking.

    The Corvette Club must be really proud.

    Heck, I'd take a Nissan Cube in a HEARTBEAT ... even if theay are a borg-like cube!


    Especially if the standard cube equipment was THIS borg - 7 of 9 - woo hoo!

    Nissan must be hard up for customers. If that were my shop I'd politely recommend he patronize the local Chevy dealer. Maybe Nissan won't wait so long to repo the car.

    Why doesn't he just drive his Corvette?

    To me the Cube looks like it should be a modern Munsters family car. I always expect Herman Munster to be driving one. Although if I had one I'd want a strandard so I could put a real long shifter on it with a round white ball type knob on top of it.:crazy:
