Great Value for the Money

Two different systems have failed.

With less than 20,000 miles driven, it broke down twice in one month. I need a dependable car. I was left stranded on the street by Nissan's "Roadside Assistance" at 1 AM when I was 75 miles from home. Dependability has not been my experience with this manufacturer.

So far, fine car, and definitely a step up.

This car has enough bells and whistles I haven't yet mastered them all but I look forward to becoming more comfortable with it. I'd been warned this model has trouble with its automatic transmission but, so far, it seems to work fine. Ride and "feel" are terrific.

Sips gas through a coffee stirrer

It is not the most stylish vehicle but for my purposes, POINT A to POINT B, you cant beat it... I get over 30 in the city if I take it easy and close to 40 on the highway. The car is fast enough for my needs in a stick shift, the automatic was a little too sluggish. Base model cost me less than 10 grand. Cant beat that for a brand new car. Only drawback, got rear ended at a pretty slow speed, the car took a lot of damage. Fortunately it was on their insurance.

Safe, comfortable, and reliable

This car is very comfortable and easy to use. The cruise control is my favorite feature so far. My only critique is that instead of a console in between the front seats there are cup holders, so this was something different for me.

Great value

Best value I could find for an entry level car. It has very little road noise, which is great for highway driving. Seats are comfortable. I highly recommend this car.

It was cheap and it rides nice.

This car meets all of my needs. It is small and easy to park. It is a stick shift with crank windows which is what I wanted.

Great value and a solid, reliable little car

I love my Versa. I was pleasantly surprised at the price but the comfort and reliability exceeded my expectations. 35mpg is perfect. Love this little fella.

Exactly right for my needs

This car is effective for what I need. It's fuel efficient, great trunk space, blue tooth and cruise control. I enjoy things vehicle thoroughly. The interior looks nice, the lines are clean. It's spacious despite it being a smaller vehicle. It has a USB charger that's convenient.
