It’s coming, it’s coming, the Cube is coming! As you know I’ve been a long-time admirer of the Cube ever since I first laid eyes on and drove one in Japan. For years, there have been rumors that the funky asymmetrical two-box compact is coming to the US and I have been spasming at the possiblity

Nissan USA announced it officially recently and and has now created a minisite for American Cubists (first 500 people can even get a free T-shirt, which still works at the time of this posting). So why am I not happy? Because the Cube coming to the States is going to be the next-generation model, whose world premiere will be at the LA Auto Show in November. The current Cube is one of the best automotive designs of all time, and it will be hard to top. And in fact, if this spyshot is correct, impossible to top.
