A good basic roomy car for a low price. Most reviewers don't like the hard plastic interior but it is rugged and easy to keep clean. Gas mileage is well above the 27/36 advertised. My ONLY complaint is the electric power steering on the highway, too much effort is required to make the fine corrections necessary to maintain lane position. In all other conditions the steering is fine. Update: I wrote a review earlier where I mentioned poor steering characteristics. That has gradually improved over the 10,000 miles I've driven it since. Now its pretty much like any other small car with EPS. I suspect something like tight ball joints or steering rack that has loosened up with use. Whatever the case, the steering is much better. There have been no problems of any kind with the car and I recommend it for anyone who wants a good car that is inexpensive to buy and to own. Careful of the CVT model because of reported failures, mine is the 5 speed manual. Update after almost 3 years: Nothing new to report. Total miles about 28,000. Everything is working fine. No squeeks, rattles, or clunks. Gas mileage is still in the low 40s. 4 year (almost) update: OEM Continental tires worn out and replaced at 34,000 miles. New Michelin Defender tires are a definite improvement. Also replaced windshield wipers at about 35,000 miles. No other issues with the car. Average gas mileage still at 41 mpg.

I enjoy a fancy car that truly impresses or a basic car that doesn't pretend to be fancy. The Versa is basic and looks good with plenty of real room inside. You never feel cramped in the Versa sedan nor do you have a lack of trunk room. You also don't get the erie feeling that a rear end collision will crush your back seat occupants. This car is almost as big as some compact and mid sizers namely the Mazda 6 from early 2000s. The car handles the road well and the stick is the way to go. I hear the cvt is an issue. Id actually would have liked the 4 speed auto that they offered a few years ago, but its gone. So I shift and save and save I did. I drove to Ohio from Buffalo to save 1400 on the car and paid 10499 on a 13200 msrp model. I was very happy with that price. No qualifications to get it/ 1500 rebate and the rest was discount. The last time I paid around 10k for a new car was back in 2011 on a chevy aveo for 7000 new at Christmastime. But that was with gm card roundups. This Versa is way better than an Aveo and I hope to get 200k miles out of it. I actually have seen some 200k mile Aveos around! The Interior issues on older Versas have been solved with better seat materials and a tach along with Bluetooth. So this inside is Very good and comfortable. I had a Mirage and I liked it but I like the Versa better. UODATE! I sold the Versa for 10k to a nice lady in central NY. I got sick of the ugly speedometer, crappy stereo and touchy clutch pedal. Otherwise I did like the Versa. I did go and buy a Mirage for 9988! Brand new. And I like it alot better than the Versa.

Highway driving-bad all over the road hard to keep in line with roads, pass any other vehicle feel like you r getting sucked into their vehicle. Car pulls u all over the road...braking the vehicle sounds like it wants to die out. No pick up at all if u have your blower on from ac or heat will not acclerate at all. Worst new car experience I have purchase in my entire life...
