Ahhhhh.
That MIGHT be what I ran into, several weeks back, on the I-8 Interstate going to San Diego. The car was camouflaged heavily and you couldn't tell what it was. Note that 3 manufacturer proving grounds are in the area (Nissan, VW...and related family, GM).
Anyway, I was driving my Vette and was entering the Interstate from the access ramp and, after checking for traffic, I "punched" it going through the paddles. I looked in my rear view mirror and some car, with an unusual front bra was right behind me. I was over 100mph and started to backed off. The unknown brand vehicle flew by me without the driver even looking over. The car was rapped with checkerboard and diagonal stripe camouflage. I thought about chasing it but it already had about a 30-40 MPH lead on me.
Never saw it again.

Its legit.. they actually went into production on it. Feel free to follow the links, if you have approx 200K you can order one. Since the GT-R components wouldn't fit in the Juke, they "stretched" a Juke body over GT-R components.
