I think the vehicle is pretty good overall. The fuel efficiency is really great. I get over 30 mpg on the freeway. The engine runs very clean and quietly. It has all power locks and windows which is very convenient. The speakers in the vehicle are of good quality. The radio has a cd player which works really well. I can also plug an aux cord in to the radio to listen to music off of my phone. I really love the color. It is bright electric blue so it stands out a lot. It came with continental brand tires which is a well-respected brand. I don't really like the body style of the vehicle that much. I wish it was smaller. I also don't like that the interior seats are cloth. I would prefer vinyl or leather. I also have issues with the gear shifter not coming out of park. It happens about once every few months. I usually have to play around with it for a few minutes for it to work. I think there may have been a recall on the shift linkage.

I have had a long line of small cards - Dodge Omni, Toyota Celica, Hyundai Accent - I have never needed a four door vehicle, and certainly not needed something mid size. But, I got a little son and a small family does need something a little bigger. We found this Versa and I really fell in love with it. It has a good size and enough space for everyone in the family. It is my first vehicle with a CD player, so that is awesome, but more than anything, it doesn't sacrifice gas mileage for size, it's great to have this space available, but to not lose a bunch of mileage when it happens. When I got it, my friend made fun of me for having an old person car, but the funny thing is that an identical one came up on craigslist about a year later and he jumped on the chance to get it - it is just a nice simple car.
