LOL. Did that Juke R Shamed Veyron 0-60 ? Seems like it. Now on a 1/4 straight the Veyron win, but from the track, I am sure Veyron will bite the Dust. Because the Acceleration of the GTR or Juke R are very very Impressive from the Corners Up.

That Juke kicked the Veyrons *** all the way down the track. I am impressed with how fast that little thing gets off the line

not sure what it means by 'Juke-R' but clearly a 700HP Juke is nothing like stock.

Im not sure if I am reading that right, but if the best a Veyron can do is a 12.2 in the 1/4 mile then a stock IS-F can hang with it as well.

Yupe, and it is completely Stock from Nissan. They don't have any of these Produce for the market yet. It is kinda funny

The guys in Nissan was Bored, so they decided they would make the Juke into something Crazy using GTR Technology, so the Juke-R was born. These are estimated to be North of $600,000 USD. Even more Expensive than LF-A.

There are Words about those High-Class Enthusiast from Middle-East saying he would Purchase 3 of these, and called Nissan. Nissan is taking it very Seriously, and may consider a Special Limited Run just like the Lexus LF-A. Could be only 200-300 Produced Eva to the market.

True,

Juke R is a skunk-works experiment sponsored by Nissan. Not an aftermarket Frankenstein's monster.
