    Are you a Micra owner?

    Still no 2016 Micra info (online)

    So we're now closer to February than December. And aside from the announcement of the 2016 Micra Cup Limited Edition trim, there's still no 2016 Micra info available on Nissan.ca or on their PR news site.

    So now I'm wondering if maybe there will be a bit more Micra news revealed at the Toronto Auto Show in 3 weeks. (Starts Feb. 12)

    Especially since GM is has made it clear they're trying to steal the Micra's thunder with the $3 cheaper Chevy Spark.

    I was just flipping through that new 2016 brochure that I got and noticed the center console looks different. Climate controls got a knob upgrade. Looks like the bottom two are just a color change; silver to dark grey or black and the fan control has been matched to the radio knobs. That looks real nice.

    Looks like the Versa... there is the storage bin above the glovebox on the right, and a little storage spot under the hvac control. Does the brochure say european model?

    Here's the '15 versa (my girlfriend's Versa, "Eleanor")

    For comparison, the 2015 center stack:



    Looks like they added the black shiny surround for 2016. Probably calling it "piano black" trim, since that sounds so much classier than "shiny black plastic that will show every fingerprint."

    You mean that divot that looks like a sort of grab handle? I wonder if that trim piece is swappable. It might be an easy upgrade.

    i wish all manufacturers copied the Micra/Versa's dead simple, geniusly arranged HVAC controls.

    i never need to look to make adjustesments, usually. Very simply laid out.

    This brochure is from the local dealership. Anyone could get a copy from a dealership, except for MetroMPG. He doesn't have one close to him.

    ptbo micra: There is no mention of European models in it.

    Still no 2016 Micra info online.

    Just over a week to go for the T.O. auto show.

    This is strange. They got the physical brochures out... why not a downloadable .pdf or something.
