Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights is a racing video game. The PlayStation 2, Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS versions were released in September, the PlayStation Portable and PlayStation 3 versions in October, and the Microsoft Windows version in November 2007. A Wii version was planned but was cancelled.

It is a sequel to the 2005 game Juiced. It was developed by Juice Games and published by THQ, in collaboration with Hot Import Nights. The game, being loosely based on the auto show of the same name, utilizes more advanced car modification methods in comparison to its predecessor.

Gameplay

The game starts off in a night club where the player selects their character and car. Juice Games has decided to remove the racing calendar, the respect system and the drag races. After choosing a character and car, the player gets a list of available races, three of which must be won in order to move up to the next level. Juiced 2 only includes two types of racing: circuit and drift.
