    Quick Take: 2015 Nissan Micra review (wildsau.ca - Tom Sedens, AJAC)

    This reviewer has posted an unusually thorough look at the Micra, and seemed to be pleasantly surprised by it.

    Pros...

    - can't be beat on price
    - pleasing styling (except the backup camera wart on the hatch)
    - tons of headroom, adequate legroom
    - decent fit/finish
    - useful trip computer/info screen
    - good stowage/cargo options
    - "surprisingly satisfying to drive"

    Cons...

    - seats lack support
    - not the best fuel economy rating
    - felt "nervous and floaty" above 110 km/h
    - engine noise at higher RPM
    - suspension / tire & wind noise

    Overall...

    Sure, you might want more toys, or more power, or more space. But if you’ve got a limited amount of money you care to spend on your ride, you might find that the Nissan Micra offers a lot. Maybe even a lot more than you thought.

    Nice review. I find it funny that a few of the commenters also considered the Mirage, but went for the Micra instead. It seems most did it for the looks.

    Yeah, and the reviewer did not like the looks of the Mirage at all:

    ...nearest competition might be the Mitsubishi Mirage which, in comparison, is pitiful to look at.
    "Pitiful" is a little harsh, but I don't like the Mirage's styling either. Bland. Aerodynamic but bland, bland, bland.
