Everyone says the Element is the Mini-Hummer or it looks like the Mercedes G-Class....wrong. It is a Nissan Cube :)

I would still take my E anyday over any car :lol:

But I do have to give Nissan kudos for not putting the parking brake on the floor...while I don't like the front "bench" seating I do like the flip down console.

Thanks for sharing the pics!

Is that an actual production model? It looks like it's an enlarged toy or something.

doesnt look quite as aggressive on the front end as the E (one of my main loves), but i definitely prefer its non-arched roof over the E's design.

To each his own, but I like the arched roofline. Its an indicator that someone cared about the details and had an artistic vision. It gives the E more character, IMHO.

Copycats!
Heh, I saw this on a website the other day and thought it looked like the Element too. I do like the seating with the armrests w/ storage and did you see the shifting is built into the steering wheel like cruise control? Neat idea.

What moron designed this thing?!?

They put the steering wheel on the wrong side of the car! :shock:

bwahahahaha

I bet somebody lost their job over that one... :wink:

It's cool it just is not an E. I think the E looks like a better engineered vehicle. IMHO. But still cool
