The GT-R-powered Nissan Juke we first, exclusively, told you about last month now has a name: the Nissan Juke-R. Oh, we'd Juke-R. We'd Juke-R so good Carlos Tavares would chase us down with a shotgun and make us marry her.

In case you haven't figured it out yet, we're talking about the bug-eyed and Mantis-snouted Versa-based crossover with a twin-turbo Nissan GT-R 3.8-liter V6 implanted in its belly. With 480-hp available at the blip of the throttle, a run to 60 mph should take less than four seconds. IN A CROSSOVER!

As you can see from this video there's a lot of custom work going into the Juke (the only place for them to fit the GT-R's six-speed transaxle is below the trunk-floor).

Sadly, this monster is a one-off project not intended for production, but it is street legal. I can't believe I'm saying this, but someone needs to invent a racing series for insane crossovers so they have to homologate this sexy bitch.
