When I heard Nissan was coming out with a competitor to the Scion Xb "box car" I was interested. Perhaps this design revolution of putting four wheels on a brick was taking off. I personally have driven both generations of the Scion Xb and while not my favorite, I must admit is a pretty good little car with ample interior room if you can get past the odd styling.
Nissan announced a few years back it would bring the Cube to the US as it was previously popular in foreign markets. The Cube starts at a hair under $14,000 and offers a lot of standard safety features, tech goodies, and "unique" styling all while delivering 30 mpg on the highway. Of course, when I say unique styling, I mean hideous. I am all for creative design but when I look at the Cube I don't know how anyone can think it is attractive. Nissan has definitely taken things too far as the Cube looks like a poorly made toy car. If the exterior hurts your eyes, don't fret. Slide behind the wheel and take a gander at the optional shag carpet dash and all your worries will go away...
Styling is subjective. What do you think?
