Nissan's Porsche killer to market

It was just announced that after its Dubai debut as pace car to the 24 hour race, and building on this buzz, Nissan will produce a small quantity of its Juke-R concept car. Production is set to be just around two-dozen of the hand-built 545-hp twin-turbo V6 (borrowed from the GT-R) which tops out at 160 mph.

This is the fastest production cross-over car and with it, Nissan will bring the battle to Porsche and the like. Some are expecting a 3.6 second 0-60 run and the 1/4 mile in 11.44 seconds. Oh, by the way, expect to pay $590.000 for the subcompact super-car beater. Who will bring one to Curacao?

The video below gives a pretty good idea of what the "evil little mutant" can do.
