The Baby-Poo Metallic paint seems quite fitting.

Nissan is certainly not building boring-looking cars, I'll give them that much.

I saw one in downtown Chicago a couple weeks ago, it really looks like a back alley hack job convertible conversion.

Saw a black one yesterday. As ugly in real life as it is in pictures

I wrote the training course for that vehicle. I didn't think it looked that terrible.

and to top it off they ALL have a recall for the convertible top assembly.
so they come in the shop for a few hours at a time, every week. We sell a lot of them because there are apparently a lot of blind people driving around Charlotte NC

I can't say it's worse than a PT Cruiser convertible.

The Murano and Juke weren't so ugly that it bothered me...until now.

I thought these were some overrun April fools joke, til I saw one on person. Strangely, I didn't hate it.

That is nothing new. My Murano had a "Chopped" top a while back.

I don't think it's ugly so much as it's one of the most pointless vehicles ever produced.

Someone at some point in time walked in to a Nissan dealership and wanted a convertible, but needed an SUV. But they want to sit up high and be safe, like an SUV. "Why don't SUVs come as convertibles?"

"I <3 my Murano, if only it came as a convertible."

Honestly, it's not the worst thing I've ever seen, I applaud Nissan for thinking outside the box and thinking we're all hipsters.

No, it's a water pump gasket. You have a dirty mind.

I like it in an odd way, the same way I like the prowler and the new thunderbird

I just threw up in my mouth a little.

And if they took time away from developing a sports car (the 370Z counts, I had to think for a second, though) to do that car, Nissan needs to fire some people.
