You remember the Juke-R, don't you? The one that puts to shame some of the most established brands out there on a track. Well, now you can have one...presumably. Nissan are putting it on a very limited run. In fact, they will set their production policies for it, on an on-demand manner.
The first time we saw the Nissan Juke-R was on a track in Dubai, trashing Lmaborghinis, Ferarris and alike. Nissan say, that the ensued interest was “enormous”. So enormous in fact that they now have...ahem...three orders for it.

If anything can put a smile on the face of a hardcore track day enthusiast, it's going to be a Nissan GT-R. More so even if that GT-R happens to be a Track Pack edition.
