I'm not in a position to buy one new, but I could see myself picking one of these up used in a few years.

i voted yes as well, would love to see a fun to drive B-spec car being sold here in the US aside from the Yaris hatch and the Mazda 2...My Note is fun to drive as well, but it took a little work to get it to that point and is still missing a couple of things to get it to the point where i want it in terms of handling which would make it even more fun to drive
I voted Yes,
why wouldnt I consider one (as long as a little car would be useful to me)

Honestly, im just too cheap to buy new, but I'd really like other people to. Barely used for like 7k is more where I'd be hoping to find myself

They question the logic of having the Micra alongside the Versa though, predicting the smallest Nissan would cannibalize sales of its bigger brother:A substantial majority of our readers, 77 percent, voted that they would be interested in buying the $9,100 Micra if it was sold in America
But we suspect that the Micra would inflict a serious hit to Versa sales [...] It would be apparent within five minutes of research that the Micra offers 90 percent of what the Versa does, and costs $5,680 less.

That is definitely the problem with the Micra, its too cheap, it would smash the Versa sales. I dont forsee it coming to the U.S. anytime soon. I would take the Micra any day over the Versa even if they were priced much closer.
I'm do not think the K13 will come to the US. However, I think there is a chance that the K14 (next Micra) will. There are more and more competitors here, and they'll eat more and more of Nissan's sales if they don't offer a car in this segment.
