That's an interesting take on a third brake light you designed up there buddy.

Still, better than a lot of other aftermarket mods out there.

Maybe they are just a big Red Wings fan

The Nissan Square does 0-60 in over 9 seconds... your friend is probably insecure because he is getting one or is forced to get one

To be fair, the cube has more low end torque....when I drive it (CVT) I stay under 1600 rpm in the city when accelerating up to speed. I only go over 1600 rpm on the highway (transmission limitation).

The only thing that the Cube beats the FR-S in is cargo capacity. Even the auto FR-S beats a Cube. And the Cube comes pretty close to Aztec level of ugliness.

Bro you're not a cube owner so you wouldn't understand. With the cube it's not about performance it's about the soul and spirit of the cube. The FR-S is all about the feels but can't keep up with the cube's fashion, that can be seen via privacy windows and its overall "cool factor". The cube is about wanting more and being different, only true block heads understand this.

Nooope. Definitely not understanding. Definitely sounds like marketing BS.

10/10 the cube takes it to a higher level. Can't teach this stuff. Either they get it or they don't.
