Nissan at least still builds sports cars. 370Z/G37, GT-R, many car companies can't say the same. The Juke is polarizing, but at least it's interesting to look at and potentially interesting to drive. If you want vanilla, they've got the Rogue too. The Versa is pretty boring, but the Tiida GTS is probably decently fun, but the North American leadership doesn't seem interested in making the Versa sporty in any way. It's a shame, because the Versa is the #1 selling sub-compact in the US. Seems like they could tack on a sporty model and potentially reach customers that they aren't reaching now.

edit: somewhat related - Jalopnik reports that Nissan Europe is working on a "super Juke".
