According to various dealers websites, the Micra has arrived in Edmonton. So far, the only model with pictures is a black automatic Micra S. Despite what some of the reviews have been saving, moving from the standard to the automatic S only gets you the automatic transmission, air conditioning, and cruise. The pictures clearly show the roll up windows, plain seats, and lack of door fabric of the truly base model.
I'll see if I can convince the missus for us to take a test drive this weekend Probably not going to get one anytime soon, but it'll be nice to have it as an option when we need to get another car.
