Juiced 2: Hot Import Nights is a racing video game for various platforms. The PlayStation 2, Xbox 360 and Nintendo DS versions were released on September 17, 2007. The PlayStation Portable version was released on October 8, 2007. The PlayStation 3 version was released on October 22, 2007. The Microsoft Windows version was released on November 16, 2007. It is a sequel to the 2005 game Juiced. It was developed by Juice Games and published by THQ. It utilizes more advanced car modification methods in comparison to its predecessor.

A demo for the Xbox 360 version was released on Xbox Live Marketplace on July 19, 2007. A second, multiplayer demo appeared on September 14, 2007. Ursula Mayes is on the cover of the game on all platforms. A Wii version was planned but it was cancelled.

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 will get a list of available races, three of which must be won in order to move up to the next level. Juiced 2 includes three types of racing: Circuit, Destination and Drift races.

A new feature in the game is the ability for the player to design their own character.

The exterior can be adjusted in terms of positioning, sizing, rotating and also 'flipping' the decal. The opacity can also be adjusted. The player can save their decal pack and apply it to any car in their garage. License plates can be modified. THQ now has the ability to filter languages when adding letters to the plates. This means that offensive words are not allowed, in both online and offline modes.
