Nissan Juke-R now for sale

Nissan finally gave in to enthusiasts on Thursday and announced the imminent sale of the more-than-one-off Juke-R crossover. The company also released a short film starring the car and GT Academy winner Lucas Ordóñez. Because of the abundance of interest in the Juke-R, Nissan said it will build its mash-up of a GT-R and a Juke for a select few customers, including noted car collector Salah Salahuddin from Dubai. “With such a strong reaction, and with three genuine offers on the table, we decided we had to make the car a reality,” said Gareth Dunsmore, marketing product manager for the Juke. “We can\'t let down enthusiasts who are this keen to add to their collection of cars. The Juke-R has become something of a phenomenon, and I\'m enormously proud of the impact it has had. There will be more news to come on Juke later in the year.” The Juke-R was built with the guts of a 2010 Nissan GT-R, sporting 483 hp. The coming models will be based on the new GT-R, with a bump in output to a mind-blowing 545 hp. If you\'d like to get on the short list to purchase one of the new cars, contact Nissan at Juke-R@nissan.co.uk. The company will be taking orders for four weeks before production starts. The first three cars will be delivered to their owners late this summer. Official pricing hasn\'t been announced yet, but Nissan says locals in the United Arab Emirates were making six-figure offers after the race. On the same day of the announcement—almost as if Nissan planned it—the company debuted its short film about the Juke-R-supercar race. It\'s a little cheesy, but it does tell the story of how the dream race happened. Adding one more thing to the lottery/bucket list wouldn\'t hurt, would it?
