Nissan To Market Build To Order Juke-R At Just Under $600,000

The Nissan Juke-R will be available in limited numbers to U.S. customers on a build-to-order basis, priced from just under $600,000, said Nissan on Thursday, as it bows to pressure to make the high-performance vehicle a reality.

In response to an e-mail query from Inside Line, Nissan Americas Vice President David P. Reuter said: "We will make Juke-R available to customers anywhere in the world on a build-to-order basis. It is intended for serious collectors and investors who want to own a true original, an innovative project that will only be created in extremely small numbers."

Reuter said the Juke-R will be priced from around $590,000.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the rationale for owning a GT-R was supercar performance at a not so supercar price. People have had their say about purchasing high-end exotics as wasteful and "stupid". Yet this tricked out Juke, which has no better performance than a typical GT-R, is available for over 5 times the purchase of said GT-R. I'm willing to bet that the rationale used the most in this case will be "well its limited production and exclusive". So...wouldn't the GT-R essentially invalidates the need for owning such a vehicle...like it has so many other cars? ...seriously, the Juke can't even look a GT-R in the face w/o turning it into a block of granite.
