MiniMe :: 2016 Nissan Micra SR (Garage entry) (2017-05-19 11:57:20)
Hello Everyone,
After years of riding on the TTC to avoid the insane auto insurance here in the GTA we finally decided to go with the Micra. Went to the dealer to get the SV but ended up getting a brand new 2016 SR for about the same cost as 2017 SV. Love the little thing so far !
Pros:
Reliability ( I think this car is going to last a long time )
Seat fabric ( a lot better than the SV)
USB ( I have tons of music on USB)
Bigger Audio Screen ( don't much care about the backup camera as not needed)
Great Mileage so far ( averaging about 8.1 with mostly city driving )
Turning Radius
Love the way it looks! stands out from others
Cons:
Loud . Wish it had better sound insulation but its not a big deal
Rust !!!! This is my biggest concern. From reading the forum I think I might have issues with rust in the future. Will get rust proofing done before winter
Welcome, Calvin!
Congrats on scoring last year's SR. That's a good deal - there have been no significant changes from '15 to '16 to '17, so you win!
The add-on body bits & wheels are nicer looking than the SV, too.
What part of Scarberia are you in? I grew up around Pt. Union & Lawrence. Family moved to the 1000 Islands area after grade 10 (Mowat).
Thanks Metro. Yep that was a good deal went to buy a used SV but could not pass up the offer on the SR plus they threw in three free oil changes :-) I live not too far from Scarborough town center mall.
Free oil changes too. :D Congrats.
