Unbelievably good value for the money
I bought this car with 32k miles eight months ago and now have 52k on the clock. It is the basic S model so it has the 5-speed transmission, manual windows and locks, etc, but I had this car shipped from a few states away because I didn't want any of the electronic tech associated with higher models. In terms of reliability, it is absolutely incredible. Comfort is very good with the only issue being that, at my 6'2 height, leg room in the front is a little on the snug side. Rear seat room is phenomenal, especially for a sub compact. Seat comfort is on the higher side of average, but lacks the softness and cushioning for extended road trips, especially for anyone over 200 pounds. Cupholders are plentiful with a total of six, but the console-mounted units ahead of the shifter could stand to be a little bit closer to the driver and a little lower to accommodate a taller cup. A/C and radio controls are an easy reach for front seat occupants, and steering wheel controls are clearly labeled and easy to use for the radio (cruise is not an option on my car, but are of equal quality). Interior materials are, however, mostly hard plastic. Average fuel economy for the S model is rated at 39 highway, but in a mix of city and highway driving I routinely enjoy 42 mpg consistently (actual mileage, not CPU given), with my highest mileage being 50.2 on a road trip traveling mostly flat highways at 60 mph or below. Road handling on curves is dull and somewhat bland, and anything more than a slight breeze knocks the 2,400 pound car around with ease. My only engine complaint relates to transmission gearing, which puts the engine at 3,000 rpm at just 62 mph which makes the engine extremely "buzzy" at highway speed. Travel down I-75 and you'll be at 4,000 rpm in no time. Paying $9,998 with 32k miles, though, I couldn't have asked for more value in a daily driven economy car. For basic transportation, a second vehicle or a beginning driver's first vehicle, Nissan Versa is a great choice with decent safety ratings from independent testing agencies not to mention traction control, six airbags and anti-lock brakes all as standard equipment. It isn't a speed demon, and most certainly won't be very exciting... but it will definitely do what it was designed to do, and do it very well.

Great for getting around town.
My Versa was an excellent purchase. A great value for an everyday commuter car. Sleek appearance and great on gas mileage. It is easy to handle and all the controls are at your fingertips.

Nissans are the go to car
This car has met all expectations and more. I enjoy how much space is given not only in the back seats but as well as in the front. I’ve owned 3 nissans and haven’t had any problems with any of them. This Versa is excellent for any car drivers needs!

The compressor is out
I bought my 2017 Nissan Versa brand new. 3 years later my air is not working took it to the dealer and its my compressor that will cost $1,100 to be repaired. My reason for buying a new car was to avoid these type of problems I will never ever buy a NISSAN

I'm happy with it. I love the style
This car meets all my needs this far. It handles very well. Love the back up camera. For a preowned it still had low miles on it.
