I purchased my 2009 Versa after driving a friend's Versa the week of my wedding. At first, it was a great vehicle. Quiet, good gas mileage (averaging about 26 miles to the gallon), plenty of room for myself and my husband. However as the vehicle began to age, stuff started falling off. First, part of the handle of the driver's side door came off. Yeah, in my hand. Not good. Then the same thing happened to the rear passenger door. The button that releases the hatch back stopped responding (it's a button, not a latch you pull). Thankfully that was covered under the extended warranty, and the latch was repaired asap. The wheel covers popped off like cheap-ass Lee press on nails. Depressing! The air conditioner and heater are still going strong, the car is in decent mechanical shape, it just looks a little shoddy, as the paint is starting to scratch and peel off. I love the 60/40 split in the back, it's great for getting all of our camping stuff in the back!

This was a great entry-level car. Very dependable. It wasn't the fastest or most powerful but more than enough to handle day to day and stay out of danger. Very good size, enough to handle a few passengers and good trunk space. The MPG was also very good.
