  • WE LOVE IT! - 2009 Nissan Cube
    By -

    My husband finally had to give up his Nissan Frontier for commuting (265,000 miles on it). We started looking at other Nissans, even a Pathfinder, when we saw the Cube sitting on the lot. I begged him to test drive it, he got out and said, "Lets do it." Hes been like a kid in a candy shop ever since!! Every day he finds something new he likes about it. Its a lot of fun.

    Well I didnt actually purchase it, though if I had money for the downpayment, I would have taken it right then and there. I test drove it, although I would prefer the SL trim level, but they didnt have it yet. The ride, very comfortable, very smoothe, and enjoyable. When you see it in person, it is really strange, it looks so small, like a rock or a toaster with wheels, but CAVERNOUS inside. I really hope I can purchase it.

  • Love My Cube - 2009 Nissan Cube
    By -

    I have owned my Cube since October 2009. We immediately took it on a thousand mile trip from mid NC to Ohio and back. It was great. Lots of room for me, the hubby and 2 dogs. I wouldnt change a thing. Road noise is not an issue. It has no more road noise than my 2003 Corolla. It drives great on the interstate as well as in town. I am getting 32.5 mpg consistently. While in Ohio, my sister liked mine so much, she has since purchased one as well and loves it as much as I love mine. My husband loves the head and leg room.

  • Tons of room! - 2009 Nissan Cube
    By -

    I bought this car yesterday - I went to look at the Altima and the Maxima; the dealership had just gotten their first Cubes, so I was curious. I was sold as soon as I sat in it. Its deceivingly big on the inside! My husband is 61" and when he sits in the driver seat, there is still a good 8-10" of head room. It has very comfortable seats and is extremely easy to get in and out of. The back seat offers again, tons of room and it slides forward or backward to give you either more leg room or more cargo room. I have a 5 year old who uses a booster seat and its been hard finding something that is easy to get her in and out of, until now. The fun part...its a blast to drive!

    Really enjoy the cube. I hate that all cars look the same right now. Either a box or a sedan. This one has the chutzpa to have an asymmetrical window, nice lines, radiating roof design, etc. It just feels fun.

    Picked up my Krom a week ago and Im 250 miles in. A couple minor bugs but overall very happy. Im 64" and have plenty of room. Comfortable seats, quiet ride and great creature features. Plenty of power although the CVT takes awhile to get accustomed to. Very fun to drive and fit and finish are very good.

    Today, I was introduce to the "cube". I even test drove it. At first I was like uh... I dunno. But then I saw the White one and I was like hmmm... Im actually liking this. I have never been interested in buying a box type of car. But I found this one to be different. The more I looked at it, the more I liked it! However, it did remind me a lil bit of a circus feel, but I think that it makes it fun. The gas mileage is grreat, the price isnt too bad, compared to other vehicles. I thought it only looked good in White. Throw on some tint, and Nice wheels. And its gonna look good! Overall, I think people will buy this for the good mileage and the fair price. Ill probably go buy one next week!

    The cube is absolutely amazing. Its like getting a minivan for the price of a Honda Fit. Its fun to drive due to stability control system, abs the acceleration is more than adequate, Im over 61 and feel that there is plenty of space in front as well as in the rear, there is an incredible amount of headroom. You feel like you are driving a small bus, with turning and braking of a sports car. I recently went to home depot and after reclining back seats I was able to fit the screen door! I bought this car for my wife and I drive the bmw coupe myself which I rate 10/10 but still enjoy the CUBE after driving my beemer.
