The kindest words I could attribute to the first generation Nissan Note would be to call it “very boxy-looking” and “quite unattractive.” Now, with the new generation car, which keeps its name in Europe while being sold in North America as the 2014 Versa Note, we are treated to curves and modern-looking swoopy shapes, and a generally more aggressive looking package.
However, if you want to take your Note one note higher (pun intended), then Japanese tuner Impul‘s comprehensive list of modifications should satisfy your desire.
Not that too many people will ever do anything to their Note, as it is not really that kind of a vehicle, such modified cars are interesting to see, and if they are done right, they can become desirable drivers’ machines with enviable driving dynamics – considerably better than their stock counterparts.
Impul will make the MPV/supermini look considerably more distinctive, with a full body kit, new 17-inch alloys and lowered and stiffened suspension. Power can be increased too, courtesy of an ECU remap, plus a revised exhaust system, and aside from that, the kit grants the car adjustable shock absorbers and beefier brakes to keep everything safe.
Still, as previously stated, unless you make an absurdly large investment into one of these, and rip everything out and start with a bare shell (like a racing car), the car will still feel like an eco-box, no matter what the photo gallery and video posted below would have you believe.
