An X-Wing-Inspired Nissan Rogue Is Proof That All Is Right in the Galaxy

May the force be with you, young driver

A short time ago, in a galaxy that’s very, very close, an SUV gave us some new hope.

Nissan unveiled this week at the Chicago Auto Show its X-Wing Rogue SUV inspired by the X-Wing starcraft Luke Skywalker piloted to destroy Death Star. Complete with thrusters, blasters and a custom paint job, the X-Wing Rogue even had an R2 droid unit poking out its roof (although the K-2SO from Rogue One was nowhere to be seen).

Unfortunately, much to the chagrin of Star Wars fans across the universe, the SUV isn’t for sale.

A revelation which has us considering going dark side.
